Overview
Decking in Western North Carolina
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. If your deck is soft, splintering, or pulling away from the house — it's time for a deck replacement.
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.

Common Questions
Decking FAQ
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.
How much does a new deck cost in Western NC?
Deck costs depend on size, material (composite vs PVC vs wood), complexity, and features like railings, stairs, and lighting. Every project is different, which is why we provide detailed, transparent quotes after an on-site assessment. Schedule a free consultation to get started.
What's the difference between Trex, TimberTech, and Armadillo?
All three are premium composite decking brands with excellent warranties. They differ in color options, textures, price points, and cap technology. We carry all three so we can match the right product to your style and budget — we'll walk you through the differences during your consultation.
How long does composite decking last?
Premium composite decking lasts 25-50 years depending on the product line. Most come with a 25-year structural warranty and a 25-year fade and stain warranty. That's decades of enjoyment without the annual maintenance that wood demands.
What railing options do you offer?
We install cable railings for unobstructed mountain views, aluminum railings for a clean modern look, composite railings to match your deck boards, and traditional wood railings. Each has a different aesthetic and price point.
Can you replace just the deck boards and keep the frame?
Sometimes. If the substructure (joists, beams, posts) is still solid, we can remove the old deck boards and install new composite or PVC on top. We'll inspect the frame thoroughly before recommending this approach — if there's any rot or structural concern, we'll replace it.
Do you build covered decks and pergolas?
Yes. We build covered decks with roofing that ties into your existing roofline, as well as standalone pergolas for partial shade. Both extend your usable outdoor season in WNC's variable weather.
How do I maintain a composite deck?
Composite decking requires very little maintenance. Sweep off debris periodically and wash with soap and water a couple times a year. No sanding, staining, or sealing — ever. That's the whole point of going composite.
Does a new deck increase home value?
Yes. A well-built deck adds usable living space and is one of the most desirable outdoor features for WNC homebuyers. Composite decks are especially attractive because buyers know there's no maintenance burden. Typical ROI is 65-75% at resale.
