Our Deck & Patio Approach
Portland gets 40+ inches of rain a year. Every deck and patio we build accounts for water management, material expansion, and subgrade drainage before the first board or paver goes down.
Structural details, fastener spacing, and drainage slope are set during planning so the finished surface holds up through freeze-thaw cycles and wet-season saturation without callbacks.
We evaluate site conditions, define structural requirements, and confirm the scope that fits your property and goals.
Required permits are filed and materials are selected for durability and compatibility with your home.
Build execution follows the approved plan with inspections and a final walkthrough before handoff.

Common Questions
Decks over 30 inches above grade or attached to the house require permits in Portland. We file applications and coordinate inspections as part of the project.
Pressure-treated lumber is the most cost-effective. Cedar resists rot naturally. Composite lasts longest with minimal maintenance but costs more upfront.
A standard deck runs 1 to 3 weeks from footing to finish. Covered structures, built-in seating, or multi-level designs can extend to 3 to 5 weeks.
Pressure-treated decks start around $30 to $45 per square foot. Cedar runs $40 to $60. Composite ranges from $50 to $80 per square foot installed.
Sometimes. Existing footings can be reused if they meet current code and are structurally sound. We inspect them before confirming the approach.
