More Room to Live Outside
A good deck turns your backyard into a room you use most of the year. It starts with what holds it up: a solid frame, built to carry the weight, tied to your house correctly and set so rain drains away.
We help you choose the size, layout, material and railing style, and we plan stairs, lighting and shade around how you use the space. Licensed electricians handle any lighting or outlets, and you have one point of contact from the site walk to the final walkthrough.
- A solid frame first. Posts, beams and framing sized for your deck and tied to your house correctly.
- Every material and color in writing. Decking, railings, stain or color and hardware, confirmed with you before work starts.
- Updates with photos. You see the frame before the decking covers it.

Wood or Composite Decking?
Both make a great deck. They differ in cost, upkeep and how they feel underfoot.
Composite Decking
Composite costs more up front and needs very little upkeep. It resists rot and splinters, and it can get warm in direct afternoon sun.
- Little upkeep
- Resists rot and splinters
- Many colors and textures
- Higher cost up front

Deck Building Questions, Answered
How do I make a deck last in Houston-area weather?
Start with the frame. A deck lasts when the posts, beams and framing are built right and water drains away from them. After that, a composite deck needs little more than cleaning, while a wood deck needs staining or sealing on a regular schedule.
Do I need a permit to build a deck?
Often, yes, especially for decks attached to the house, raised decks and covered decks. Rules differ between cities and unincorporated county areas, and many HOAs review decks too. We confirm what your address requires before work starts.
Can you add a roof or shade to my deck?
Yes. We build covered decks, patio covers and pergolas. A roof over a deck ties into your house and often needs a permit, so we plan it with the rest of the design.
Can you repair my deck instead of replacing it?
Often, yes. If the frame is solid, we can replace worn boards and railings or put new decking over the existing frame. If the frame has rot or loose connections, we show you and recommend rebuilding it.
How long does it take to build a deck?
A simple ground-level deck moves quickly. Larger, raised or covered decks take longer, and permits and weather can move the schedule. You get the expected schedule before work starts.
When do I choose decking, railings and colors?
Before work starts. After the site walk, we sit down with you and choose every material and finish: decking, railings, stain or color and hardware. Every choice goes on a written materials list that you approve with your estimate.
How much does a new deck cost?
Cost depends on the size and height of the deck, the decking and railings you choose, stairs, covers and site access. After the site walk, we price the exact materials you picked and send a detailed estimate in writing. The estimate is free.
