Deck Installation Services

New decks in treated lumber, cedar and composite, built on solid footings with safe railings and stairs.

A deck extends your living space into the yard, and a well-built one is a joy for decades. A poorly built one sags, rots at the ledger and becomes a safety problem. The difference is in the footings, the framing, the connections and the flashing.

We build decks in pressure-treated lumber, cedar and composite, attached to the house with proper ledger flashing and supported on footings sized for the load. We frame with correct joist spacing and hangers, add railings and stairs that meet safe standards and finish with the surface and trim you choose.

Footings and framing

Footings must reach firm soil, below the frost line, and posts must be sized for the load. We use joist hangers, hurricane ties and proper fasteners so the frame stays tight.

The ledger connection

Most deck failures start where the deck meets the house. We flash the ledger correctly and use through-bolts or structural screws, never just nails.

Surface and rail options

Composite is low maintenance, cedar is warm and natural, and treated lumber is cost-friendly. Railings and stairs are built to a safe height and spacing, with lighting if you want.

Lighting and furniture

Step lights, post lights and outlets make a deck usable at night. We plan power and lighting during construction so wires are hidden.

Questions

Deck Installation FAQ

Composite or wood?

Composite needs little upkeep and costs more at the start. Wood is classic and needs regular sealing. Our decking guide compares them.

Do I need a permit for a deck?

Most decks do. We help with the application and drawings where needed.

How long does a deck take to build?

A typical deck takes one to two weeks, depending on size, weather and details.

Can you build a covered deck or a pergola?

Yes, as part of the design. We plan the posts and framing to carry the roof or pergola.

Can you add lighting to a new deck?

Yes. Low-voltage step and rail lights can be built in.
