1. What types of deck building services do you offer?

We specialize in a wide range of deck building services to cater to various needs and preferences. Our offerings include composite decking, which combines the beauty of wood with the durability of synthetic materials, as well as traditional wood options like cedar and redwood. We also design and construct covered decks that provide shade and shelter, enhancing your outdoor experience year-round. Additionally, we offer dry below deck systems, which allow you to utilize the space beneath your deck for storage or as an outdoor living area, along with custom porches and a variety of deck accessories to complete your project.

2. Can you help with deck replacements?

Yes, we provide comprehensive deck replacement services designed to ensure a seamless transition from your old deck to a brand new structure. Our team will assess the condition of your existing deck, discuss your vision for the new one, and provide tailored solutions that meet your aesthetic and functional needs. We prioritize quality craftsmanship and use top-grade materials, ensuring your new deck is not only beautiful but also durable and long-lasting.

3. What materials do you recommend for decks?

When it comes to decking materials, we offer a variety of options to suit your style and budget. Composite decking is a popular choice due to its low maintenance and resistance to fading and warping. We also provide traditional wood options, such as cedar and redwood, which offer a classic look and can be treated to enhance their longevity. Our team can help you weigh the pros and cons of each material, ensuring you choose the best option for your specific project.

4. Do you provide custom designs for porches and decks?

We utilize cutting-edge design software to provide visualizations, making it easy for you to see your project come to life before construction begins.

5. How long does the deck building process typically take?

The timeline for deck construction can vary significantly based on several factors, including the size of the deck, the complexity of the design, and the materials chosen. Generally, the process can take anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months. During the initial consultation, we will provide you with a detailed estimate that includes a timeline tailored to your project, ensuring transparency and setting clear expectations from the outset.

6. What maintenance is required for composite decks?

One of the significant advantages of composite decking is its low maintenance requirements. Unlike traditional wood, composite decks do not need regular staining or sealing. However, to keep your deck looking its best, we recommend periodic cleaning with soap and water or a mild detergent. It’s also wise to remove any debris or standing water promptly to prevent mold or mildew growth. We can provide specific care instructions tailored to the materials used in your deck, ensuring its longevity and performance.

7. Do you offer warranties on your work?

Yes, we stand firmly behind the quality of our work and offer warranties on our deck building services. Our warranties cover both workmanship and materials, providing you with peace of mind that your investment is protected. We are committed to addressing any issues that may arise post-installation, ensuring your complete satisfaction with our services.

Whether your deck has suffered from wear and tear, water damage, or structural issues, we can assess the situation and provide effective repair solutions. Our goal is to restore the safety and functionality of your deck while preserving its aesthetic appeal.

9. What are the benefits of a dry below deck system?

A dry below deck system offers numerous advantages, primarily maximizing the usability of your outdoor space. This system prevents water from dripping through the deck boards, creating a dry area underneath that can be utilized for storage, outdoor furniture, or additional living space. It also protects the area from moisture-related issues, extending the life of both your deck and any items stored below. Additionally, it can enhance the overall look of your outdoor area by providing a clean and finished appearance.
