We start with the house, not a catalog: where the doors are, where the sun hits, how the grade falls away, and how you plan to use the space. From there, we design the framing, set footings below the local frost line, and properly flash the ledger so the finished deck is strong, dry, and built to last.
Composite and PVC boards come in a wide range of colors and textures, with hidden fasteners for a clean surface. Composite offers excellent value and the broadest selection, while PVC provides maximum resistance to moisture, staining, and fading. Neither needs staining or sealing—just occasional washing. See the materials comparison for the full trade-offs.
Pressure-treated wood is the most affordable way to get a properly built deck and remains the right choice for many projects. The treatment helps the wood resist moisture, rot, and insects, while the natural surface can be stained in nearly any color. It requires washing and restaining every year or two, and we’ll be upfront about that.
Adding a roof lets you use the space through more of the year. Screened porches keep bugs out on summer evenings, while covered decks protect you and the decking from rain and snow. Both require substantial structural work, including properly supported posts, beams, and roof framing tied securely into the house.
We install code-compliant railing systems in wood, aluminum, composite, PVC, vinyl, cable, glass, and stainless steel. We also build solid, secure stairs and integrate low-voltage lighting into posts, risers, and beneath the rails. Installing these details while the deck is open creates a cleaner result and costs far less than adding them later.
We handle full tear-offs, structural repairs, and resurfacing. Every evaluation starts with the ledger, footings, and framing because those components determine whether a deck is safe and worth saving. If the structure is sound, resurfacing can be an excellent value. If it isn’t, we’ll show you what we found and explain the options clearly.
We build shade where the afternoon sun would otherwise make a deck uncomfortable or unusable. Pergolas and shade structures can be freestanding or attached to the house, with proportions that suit the space and architecture. Each one is sized and framed to handle local weather and real snow loads—not just to look good on paper.
We design the whole outdoor space: decks that connect cleanly with patios and landscaping, outdoor kitchens, fire features, built-in benches and planters, and changes in elevation that make a sloped yard usable. Each element is planned to work together, creating a finished space that feels natural to the house and practical for everyday life.
