Find the Perfect Deck for Your Home

We work with the best decking materials on the market, each with unique advantages for aesthetics, durability, and maintenance needs.

Pressure treated wood deck with modern railing

Pressure-Treated Lumber

The most popular and affordable decking option. Treated to resist rot, insects, and moisture — pressure-treated decks are exceptionally durable and can be stained or painted to suit any style. Ideal for budget-conscious homeowners who want longevity.

Low maintenance composite decking in grey tones

Composite Decking

A premium, virtually maintenance-free alternative made from wood fibres and recycled plastic. Composite decking won't splinter, fade, or require annual sealing. Available in dozens of realistic wood tones and colours — a favourite for busy families.

Rich cedar hardwood deck with natural grain

Cedar & Hardwood

For homeowners who want the rich, warm look of natural wood. Cedar is naturally rot-resistant and aromatic. Exotic hardwoods like Ipe and Mangaris offer extraordinary hardness and a lifespan of 25–40 years with proper care. Stunning and timeless.

Multi-level deck with stairs and lighting

Multi-Level Decks

Create distinct zones for dining, lounging, and recreation across multiple platforms connected by elegant staircases. Multi-level decks are perfect for sloped yards or homes that need separate entertaining and relaxation spaces.

Covered deck with roof structure

Covered & Screened Decks

Extend your outdoor season and keep bugs out with a covered or screened deck. We integrate roofing, screens, and privacy panels directly into the deck structure — creating a true four-season outdoor living room.

Pool deck with modern railing around inground pool

Pool & Waterfront Decks

Specialized decking designed for high-moisture environments around pools, lakes, and hot tubs. We use slip-resistant, water-tolerant materials and drainage-optimized designs that ensure safety and longevity in wet conditions.

Deck Building FAQ

Questions we hear from homeowners every day — answered honestly.

Deck costs vary based on size, materials, and complexity. As a rough guide: pressure-treated decks typically range from $25–$45 per square foot; composite decks $45–$75/sq ft; cedar and hardwood $55–$95/sq ft. A small 200 sq ft ground-level deck might start around $6,000, while a large multi-level composite deck can exceed $40,000. We provide free, detailed quotes so you know exactly what you're getting.
In most Canadian municipalities, a building permit is required for any deck over 24 inches above grade, decks attached to the house, or decks over a certain square footage. Requirements vary by city. The good news: we handle all permit applications and inspections for you as part of every project — you don't need to worry about a thing.
Construction time depends on the deck's size and complexity. A straightforward ground-level deck can be built in 3–5 days. A large multi-level deck with stairs, railings, and built-ins typically takes 1–3 weeks. Permit processing time (if required) can add 2–6 weeks before construction begins. We'll give you a realistic timeline during your consultation.
All our materials are rated for Canadian climate, but composite decking is particularly well-suited for freeze-thaw cycles because it doesn't absorb moisture and won't split or warp. Pressure-treated lumber performs excellently with proper annual maintenance. Hardwoods like Ipe are extremely dense and handle cold well. We'll recommend the best material for your region and budget during your consultation.
In many parts of Canada, we build decks year-round. Ground conditions permitting, decks can be built in cooler months with proper techniques. Some concrete footing work requires temperatures above freezing, but we manage this with heating blankets and timing. Off-season builds can also mean faster scheduling.
