Why Build a Deck?

 

Adding a deck to your home offers numerous benefits.

For example, decks provide a beautiful outdoor living space for you and your family. Enjoying nature is easy when you have a deck. Even better, your home’s property value also increases!

Building a deck also adds more space to your home and can be used to entertain guests, host family gatherings, or simply relax outdoors. As a great addition to your home, decks are versatile and can be customized to fit the specific needs and preferences of the homeowner. Whether you’re planning to have a multi-level deck, an attached or detached deck, or a deck with built-in seating and lighting, we can make it happen for you. 

Finally, decks aren’t as expensive as many homeowners assume. When you consider the value they provide, they prove to be solid long-term investments. After all, only a few home improvement projects provide value like a brand-new deck.

Types of Decks

 Not sure which type of deck works best for you? Here’s how you can tell.

Deck builders specialize in designing decks with customers in mind. We offer two types of deck materials that are timeless and durable.

Here’s the difference between the two:

composite wood deck

Composite Deck

 

Composite decks use synthetic wood made from plastic and wood pulp fibers. Unlike many natural kinds of wood, composite wood is reliable and immune to wood rot. It is designed to look like natural wood and often has natural wood grain texture and color variations to mimic the appearance of natural wood. While it may look artificial to some, it depends on what material your deck builder uses.

Composite wood offers many advantages over natural wood, such as:

  • Lower maintenance: Composite woods are more reliable than natural woods. As a result, they require less maintenance and repairs. All you need to clean composite wood is a garden hose!
  • Improved durability: Water and sun exposure don’t damage composite woods the way it does with natural woods. 
  • Increased customizability: With composite wood, you have greater design flexibility, it can be manufactured in a wide range of colors, textures, and patterns, giving deck builders the freedom to create unique and custom designs for your projects
  • Long-run value: Over time, composite woods save money by requiring fewer repairs.

Wood Deck

 

Wood decks use natural, non-artificial wood cut from real trees. A timeless option, wood decks remain an incredibly popular choice for homeowners. Deck builders offer a wide selection of natural woods homeowners can choose from.

Wood decks provide a natural, genuine look that many homeowners just love. Although they require more maintenance than composite decks, they are cheaper to build. Taking steps to prevent wood rot and damage can help prevent future damage.

Choosing the right type of wood for your wood deck can be challenging. Here are some of the most common options:

  • Pine: Pine wood is inexpensive but beautiful. 
  • Cedar: While more pricy than pine, cedar wood is easier to maintain. They also offer enhanced resistance to pests and wood rot. 
  • Redwood: A common choice for homeowners looking for a reddish deck. These decks offer natural resistance to decay, rot, and insects, making them durable and low-maintenance options for outdoor living.

Consider your budget and desired look when deciding which type of wood you want. Also, make sure you plan to have your deck treated and protected against wood rot and damage.

Why Hire Professional Deck Builders?

 

Building a deck is a challenging task, so make sure you hire the right deck builders for your project.

You might think that you can build your deck. After all, how’s it any different from your average home improvement project? Unfortunately, DIY deck building is extremely dangerous and unsafe.

Decks are complicated structures that require thorough planning and professional skill to build. They must be capable of supporting thousands of pounds of weight and be structurally sound. An amateur deck will more than likely experience structural failure at some point, putting you and your loved ones at risk.

Building your own deck is also illegal in many places. Decks must follow certain city and state codes that only experts are familiar with. Why take this risk when you can hire professional deck builders?

Professional deck builders will ensure your deck is safe and built as per your city codes. Using proper deck-building materials, our team at DeckMaster will build a deck that meets your needs. Best of all, they’ll work with speed and efficiency to finish the job as quickly as possible.

    Deck Master achieved our vision of a minimalist and yet modern and low maintenance look to showcase new fresher style with less obstruction. Pavel, the project manager was professional and very responsive. The quotes he gave us was reasonable, affordable, and the workmanship was remarkable - even better than their most expensive competitor. Yelka has superb customer service and she really took care of our needs and questions. The work of the crew was meticulous. Not to mention Carlos who installed the Trex Signature Horizontal Rod Railing had such attention to details and took into consideration our feedback and made things look well done.

    Had the best experience working with DeckMaster, Inc. My house has a historical designation which requires extra permitting and permission. Jose took care of all of that and he and his team fully replaced the existing deck with a much sturdier, better designed one. The whole process was smooth and efficient once the permitting was over, and I look forward to the final painting and finishing in the spring.

    Deck Master (1) removed our old rotting ground level wooden deck and replaced it with a beautiful paver patio with sitting walls (2) replaced our deteriorating porch wooden steps with composite vinyl/trex lighted steps (3) replaced our porch screens, cleaned and stained porch all fascia boards including vinyl cladding on vertical fascia. All work was done in a very professional way with separate crews that specialized in the work that needed to be done including the demolition. Each crew would show up and work until work was completed and then clean up and remove all construction debris. Crews and construction managers and office managers were friendly and responsive to our concerns. All materials and installation were top quality resulting in an impressive finished product. I highly recommend Deck Master.

    the customer service was great. Melanie explained me about the services that DeckMaster provide. I decided to do a deck maintenance, and I was amazed of the great job that they did. When the people arrive to my house, I told them that I do not like shoes on my house, and they listen to me. My deck now looks like never before super clean. Overall the experience with DeasMaster was excellent.

    Here is a quick look at why it’s best to build a deck in the Winter:

     

    Better Deck Building Options
    Construction crews are scheduled out weeks (and sometimes months) in advance in the Spring and Summer. It seems to just be the time that homeowners get around to starting new projects. Once Autumn hits, though, the demand for these services starts to decrease slightly. Because of this, there are better options available. There are often specials offered only in the Winter!
    Less Landscape Damage
    As you know, Spring and Summer weather is hard to predict. April showers bring May flowers, right? It’s hard to predict the weather when one day it can be sunny (and over 100 degrees) and the next it can be pouring rain. Sometimes a day will start out sunny and end with a storm. In the Fall, on the other hand, the terrain is dry and the days are much easier to predict. On top of that, constructing a deck in the summer cal ruin the plants you’ve worked hard on growing. In Autumn, they’re past their peak.
    Faster Build Times
    Going off the idea of Fall weather being easier to predict, Fall weather allows for less unexpected delays. In the Fall, it’s unlikely that you will have to deal with a surprise thunderstorm, which means more time being put into your deck and less time watching an unfinished deck soak. Also, since Fall is generally cooler, the crew working on your deck will be much less tired and much more comfortable. This can even lead to less mistakes.
    More Time Enjoying Your Deck in the Summer
    The best time to have a deck is in the Spring and Summer, so you don’t want to wait until then to start building it! If you do that, then you can lose the majority of the time you could’ve spent enjoying your deck outside. By building a deck this Fall, you will be able to enjoy your new deck all of Spring and Summer.
