About Our Deck Building Approach

We keep the process personal. From the first conversation to the final screw, you’ll work with a single, dedicated team. Everything — design, permits, build, cleanup — stays under one roof, so timelines stay predictable and communication stays clear.

Local knowledge makes a difference. We know the clay soils, the humidity, and the building codes that define life in the region. The decks we build reflect that experience — sturdy, polished, and built to last.

Our Most Popular Deck Styles and Services

These are the most popular styles homeowners ask for and the details that make each one stand out.

Wood Decks

Classic never goes out of style. A wood deck offers warmth and a texture that feels alive underfoot. Every board is chosen and cut to match the look of your home.

Materials: Pressure-treated pine, cedar, or redwood
Lifespan: Around 15–20 years with seasonal care
Best For: Homes shaded by trees or with natural landscaping
Benefits: Cost-effective, easy to stain, timeless charm

Composite Decks

If you want beauty without the upkeep, composite decking delivers. These boards resist fading, mold, and warping — perfect for families who want more time relaxing and less time maintaining.

Materials: Trex®, Fiberon®, TimberTech®, and other leading brands
Lifespan: Typically 25–30 years
Best For: Modern homes or busy households
Benefits: Fade-resistant, splinter-free, and environmentally friendly

Deck Railings

A railing can change the entire character of your deck. Some homeowners go for clean modern lines; others prefer the warmth of wood or the sleekness of cable and metal. Whatever your style, we’ll design it to look intentional — not added on.

Materials: Wood, vinyl, aluminum, cable, or composite
Benefits: Safety, style, and durability combined
Best For: Elevated or multi-level decks

Deck Renovations & Upgrades

Sometimes your deck just needs a second life. We can replace worn boards, reinforce framing, or upgrade to composite for a cleaner, longer-lasting finish.

Work We Do: Repairs, refinishing, railing replacements, or extensions
Benefits: Safer, stronger, and better looking than before
Ideal For: Homeowners who want to refresh, not rebuild

Deck Building Permits

Whether you’re a homeowner or business owner, we make the permit process simple.

From backyard decks with built-in lighting to restaurant patios and rooftop spaces, we handle every detail — approvals, inspections, and compliance — so your project moves forward without the stress or red tape.

Deck Builds and Property Values

Outdoor living spaces consistently deliver value, with decks recouping 60% to 80% of their cost at resale. Beyond numbers, a well-designed deck adds usable square footage and creates an easy indoor-outdoor flow that buyers love. In established neighborhoods like Meadowmont, they boost curb appeal and set homes apart. Even for those staying put, a great deck pays off daily — more room to relax, host, and enjoy North Carolina living.

Why We Love Chapel Hill

We love how weekends bring people together at Southern Community Park, whether it’s families at the playground or friends gathering for pickup soccer. It’s the kind of space that reminds us that outdoor living matters because it’s a chance to slow down, connect, and enjoy life beyond four walls.

Then there’s Franklin Street, the heartbeat of Chapel Hill. Its mix of coffee shops, historic storefronts, and tree-lined sidewalks mirrors the balance we strive for in every deck we build — timeless, functional, and full of character.

Homeowners here care about quality that lasts. They don’t just want a deck that looks good on day one; they want something that will still feel solid after countless seasons of cookouts, and tailgates. That shared appreciation for craftsmanship and longevity is why we’re proud to build right here in Chapel Hill.
