Many homeowners think deck building is simple: throw down some boards, add a railing, done. In reality, a properly built deck requires expertise, quality materials, and attention to detail. Here's what separates a professionally built deck from a DIY disaster:
Your deck must support weight safely. This requires proper post footings below the frost line, correct joist sizing and spacing, and professional framing. One mistake here and your deck becomes a liability—not a feature.
Pressure-treated PT wood, premium cedar, or low-maintenance composite each have different characteristics. We help you choose based on your budget, aesthetic preference, and maintenance tolerance. Cedar looks beautiful but requires staining every 2-3 years. Composite costs more upfront but lasts 25-30 years with zero maintenance.
Ontario winters are harsh. Your deck must handle freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow loads, and moisture. We use proper spacing between boards for drainage, quality fasteners that won't rust, and construction methods proven to withstand Ontario weather.
Your deck is built to last with quality materials, proper construction, and professional workmanship. We conduct a final inspection to ensure everything meets Ontario building codes and our standards. You get a complete walkthrough, final cleanup, and your deck is ready to enjoy immediately. All work is backed by our 2-year warranty.

Professional pressure-treated lumber construction includes materials, labour, finishing, and initial sealing. PT wood is the most popular choice—durable, affordable, and beautiful. Requires staining every 2-3 years to maintain appearance and protection. - 15-20 year lifespan - Requires staining/sealing every 2-3 years - Budget-friendly option - Classic wood appearance - Great value for investment Examples by size: Small (100 sq ft): ~$9,000 Medium (200 sq ft): ~$18,000 Large (300 sq ft): ~$27,000
Low-maintenance composite decking offers the beauty of wood with minimal upkeep. Composite decks never need staining or sealing—they're virtually maintenance-free while lasting 25-30+ years. Higher upfront cost, but significant savings over time in maintenance and refinishing. - 25-30+ year lifespan - ZERO maintenance required (no staining ever) - No rot or insect damage - Colour stable (doesn't fade significantly) - Slightly higher upfront investment Value proposition Compare PT at $18,000 (200 sq ft) + ~$500-1,000/staining x 10 times over 20 years ($5,000-10,000 additional) = $23,000-28,000 total cost. Composite at $26,000 (200 sq ft) + zero maintenance = $26,000 total over 25+ years. Over the deck's lifespan, composite saves you thousands in staining costs. Examples by size Small (100 sq ft): ~$13,000 Medium (200 sq ft): ~$26,000 Large (300 sq ft): ~$39,000
Premium cedar lumber with superior grain and natural beauty. Cedar is a premium choice—it looks stunning and weathers beautifully. Like PT wood, it requires staining every 2-3 years, but cedar's natural colour and grain create a truly premium aesthetic. - 20-25 year lifespan - Beautiful natural wood grain - Weathers to attractive silver-grey naturally - Requires staining/sealing every 2-3 years - Premium aesthetic, slightly higher cost Examples by size: Small (100 sq ft): ~$11,000 Medium (200 sq ft): ~$22,000 Large (300 sq ft): ~$33,000
