Decking
Decks and Outdoor Living Spaces Built to Last
Living in Western North Carolina means living with incredible outdoor spaces. Mountains, trees, fresh air — you should be enjoying all of it from a deck that's built right. Not one that's rotting, wobbling, or past its prime.
We build new decks and replace old ones using composite decking, PVC decking, and premium pressure-treated lumber. Composite and PVC options give you the look of real wood without the annual sanding, staining, and sealing that mountain weather demands. They resist moisture, UV fading, mold, and insect damage — real problems in our humid mountain environment.
Every deck we build starts with a properly engineered substructure. Footings, posts, beams, joists — the parts you can't see are what determine whether your deck lasts 5 years or 25. We build to code and beyond, because code is the minimum.
Whether you want a simple platform deck, a multi-level entertainment space, or a covered deck with lighting and railings, we design and build it to be the outdoor living space you actually use.

Step by Step
Our Decking Process
Design
We discuss your vision, assess your property, and design a deck that works with your home's architecture, your yard's terrain, and your lifestyle.
Engineering
We design the substructure for proper load capacity, span, and longevity. Mountain terrain often requires special footing considerations — we handle it.
Construction
We build from the ground up — footings, framing, decking, railings, stairs, and all finish details. Clean, precise, built to last.
Final Details
Lighting, post caps, trim, and a final walkthrough. Your deck is ready to use the day we finish.
Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Composite or real wood — which is better for WNC?
Composite and PVC decking are far better choices in our mountain climate. Real wood requires annual maintenance (sanding, staining, sealing) and still degrades from moisture and UV. Composite resists all of that and looks great for decades with minimal upkeep. The higher upfront cost pays for itself within a few years of avoided maintenance.
How long does deck construction take?
A standard deck takes 1-2 weeks. Multi-level decks with features like built-in benches, pergolas, or lighting may take 2-3 weeks. Weather can extend the timeline — we won't rush and compromise quality.
Do I need a permit for a new deck?
In most WNC jurisdictions, yes. Decks typically require a building permit and inspections. We handle the permit process so you don't have to deal with it.
Can you build a deck on sloped mountain terrain?
Absolutely. Many WNC homes are on slopes. We engineer the foundation system to work with your specific terrain — whether that means deeper footings, taller posts, or stepped designs. It's one of the things we do regularly here.
