What We Do

Our Services

Here's the deck work homeowners in Los Angeles call us for most.

Deck Installation

New decks built from the footings up, sized and framed for how you actually use your yard.

Deck Repair

Soft boards, wobbly rails and sagging frames fixed without tearing out the whole deck.

Deck Staining & Sealing

Stain and sealer that stands up to direct LA sun instead of peeling by next summer.

Custom Deck Design

Multi-level decks, built-in seating and shade structures planned around your house.

Composite Decking

Low-maintenance composite boards that skip the yearly staining and sanding.

Deck Railing Installation

Wood, cable and metal railings set to code height and spacing.

Who We Are

Built by people who work on decks every week

We build, repair and refinish decks for homeowners across Los Angeles, from small ground-level platforms to raised decks off a second-story addition. If you're reading this, there's a good chance your deck has a soft spot near the ledger board, a rail that moves when you lean on it, or boards gone gray and split at the ends. Sun does more damage out here than rain does, and it doesn't always show until you push a screwdriver into the wood. We see the same handful of problems on decks all over this city.

We start underneath, checking the ledger flashing, the joist hangers and the post footings before we touch a single board on top. Rotten framing gets replaced with pressure-treated lumber rated for ground contact, not whatever was cheapest when the deck was first built. If you're going composite, we leave the right gap between boards for drainage and heat expansion, because composite moves more than people expect in a hot LA summer. Railings get set to code height and baluster spacing, not just close enough to pass a glance.

Had a soft spot by the door for months. Ledger flashing was shot, they redid it in a day.

Had to push our start date back for rain, a little annoying but they called ahead. Composite boards look great, no more splinters for the kids out in Downey.

Old redwood deck in Glendale was gray and cracking at the ends. Sanded it down and the stain color actually matches the sample chip we picked.

Common Questions

Questions we get a lot

Answers to what people usually ask before booking a deck project.

How much does a new deck cost in Los Angeles?
A pressure-treated wood deck typically runs less per square foot than composite or hardwood decking, with cost driven by size, height off the ground, railing style and how much structural work the framing needs. A simple ground-level deck costs far less than a raised deck requiring deep footings and stairs. Getting an exact number means having someone measure the space and look at the ground conditions.
Are you licensed and insured to build decks in California?
Deck construction in California falls under a contractor's license, and any deck builder doing structural work, including framing and railings, should carry both a license and liability insurance. Ask to see the license number and a current certificate of insurance before signing a contract. This protects the homeowner if there's damage to the property during construction.
How soon can you start my deck project?
Start times depend on permit approval, current job load and material availability, with composite decking sometimes special-ordered in a specific color. Simple repairs can often be scheduled within a couple of weeks. New builds requiring a permit usually take longer to start because of the plan check process.
What areas around Los Angeles do you cover for deck work?
Deck installation and repair coverage typically extends across Los Angeles and surrounding cities within about a 50-mile radius, including areas like Pasadena, Glendale, Burbank and Long Beach. Confirming coverage for a specific address is best done with a quick call or a form submission listing the property location.
Do you build decks on condos and multi-family properties, or just single-family homes?
Deck builders generally work on single-family homes, condos, townhomes and small multi-family properties, though condo and HOA projects often require additional approval from a homeowners association. Structural decks attached to multi-unit buildings may also need engineering review beyond a standard residential permit.
Will you take on a small repair job, or only full deck builds?
Most deck contractors handle small repairs like replacing a few rotted boards, fixing a loose railing, or resetting a wobbly stair stringer, not just full installations. A minor repair now, like fixing a soft board near the ledger, often prevents a much larger framing repair later.
How do I get started with a deck project?
The usual first step is a call or a form submission describing the deck problem or the new build idea, followed by an in-person visit to measure the space and check the ground and existing structure. A written quote should follow that visit, breaking down materials, labor and permit costs separately.
What affects the price of a deck the most?
Decking material makes the biggest difference, with composite and hardwoods like ipe costing significantly more than pressure-treated pine, followed by deck height, since raised decks require deeper footings and stair construction. Railing style, built-in features like benches or pergolas, and the condition of existing framing on a repair job also move the number.
Do you require a deposit before starting deck work?
Most deck contractors require a deposit to cover material costs upfront, with the balance due at agreed milestones or on completion, and the exact split should be spelled out in the written quote. Paying the entire cost upfront before any work starts is generally not standard practice and worth questioning.
What happens if it rains during my deck project?
Framing and structural work can usually continue in light rain, but pouring concrete footings, staining and sealing all need dry conditions to cure or set properly. A rained-out day typically just shifts the schedule by that same day rather than causing a major delay.
