Traditional Materials, Expertly Built for Modern Needs
Why Wood Decks Still Work in North Carolina
Wood remains a trusted deck material in North Carolina for good reason: it’s strong, adaptable, and visually timeless. Pressure-treated pine offers great durability at a lower cost, while cedar provides a naturally insect-resistant surface with a refined finish. Our team understands the strengths and limitations of each species and builds decks that meet code and resist rot. We also help you select finishes to prevent water damage and keep your deck looking great longer.
North Carolina’s humidity, rainfall, and heat cycles demand careful material selection. Pressure-treated lumber is infused with preservatives to resist moisture and pests. Cedar naturally repels insects and offers a refined grain for a polished look. We build every wood deck with deep-set posts, proper flashing, and hardware built for outdoor exposure. You get the beauty of real wood with craftsmanship that stands up to the elements.

Our wood decks start with solid substructures—laser-leveled and properly spaced for strength. We offer a range of finishes, from natural oils to deep stains, and help you choose railings, steps, and skirting that match your home’s architecture. Whether you want a rustic wraparound porch in Fayetteville or a modern backyard deck in Cary, we tailor each project to your layout and lifestyle.

Built to Code, Backed by Warranty
We don’t just build good-looking decks—we build safe, code-compliant structures that last. Our team follows North Carolina Residential Code standards for footing depth, railing height, load capacity, and ledger attachment. Every board is cut, fastened, and sealed with attention to long-term wear. And our work is backed by warranty, so you get more than just curb appeal—you get peace of mind.
Wood decks offer unmatched design flexibility. From traditional railings and boxed steps to open platforms with bench seating, we help you create a deck that fits your vision. Cedar works well for elevated decks and finished outdoor rooms. Pressure-treated pine is perfect for expansive footprints or budget-conscious upgrades. With the right stains and trim details, your wood deck becomes a natural extension of your home.

From material selection to long-term care, here are the top questions North Carolina homeowners ask about wood decks.
How long does a pressure-treated wood deck last?
With proper sealing and maintenance, these decks can last 15–20 years or more.
Does cedar require staining or sealing?
Cedar can be left natural but benefits from sealing or staining to prevent graying and water absorption.
Can you match my existing porch or deck style?
Yes. We can match materials, railing profiles, stains, and layout to blend with current structures.
Is wood a good option for high-traffic areas?
Absolutely. When properly framed and sealed, wood handles foot traffic well and can be refreshed over time.
