We plan every detail before we build. No surprises at the end.
Before a single board goes down, you see your deck: a drawing, a framing layout and a line-by-line price. Then we build exactly that. Across Westchester, the Hudson Valley and Fairfield County, CT.
A recent job: the old wood deck came off, and a new composite deck now wraps the back of the house, steps down to the yard and sits right beside the hot tub.
Planned before the first board
You see the whole deck on paper before we order anything. That's how we keep the price you sign the price you pay.
- A drawing of your deckSee the size, the stairs and the railings before you commit.
- A framing planJoists, beams, posts and footings, laid out and measured.
- A line-by-line priceMaterials and labor spelled out, so you know what you're paying for.
- No surprise add-onsIf something changes once we open things up, you hear about it and approve it first.
This job, before any framing: every footing laid out and dug exactly where the plan put it.
The plan for this yard
What we drew up for this house, and then built.
- One deck across the backFrom the sliding doors all the way to the side door.
- Built around the hot tubThe hot tub sits right beside the deck on its own concrete pad.
- Two ways downWide main stairs to the yard, plus steps at the side door, both landing on concrete.
- Trim to match the houseWhite railings and fascia that go with the white siding.
- Low-upkeep compositeNo staining or sanding, with breaker boards for a clean finished look.
How we plan and build
The work happens on paper first, so nothing on site comes as a surprise.
Listen
We walk the yard with you and ask how you'll use the deck, who uses it, and what you want to spend.
Plan and draw
We measure, check the house wall and the ground, and draw your deck with a framing layout.
Price it clearly
A line-by-line price before anything is ordered, and we tell you if your town needs a permit.
Build to the plan
What you approved is what we build. Any change gets your OK first.
Walk it together
We walk the finished deck with you and fix anything that isn't right.
From plan to finished deck
The same job, step by step.
FootingsHoles dug along the house, right where the plan put them. 
FrameNew pressure-treated frame, with the hot tub boxed in while we work. 
DeckingComposite decking down while the crew frames the main stairs. 
FinishedWhite railings, fascia and trim. Exactly what was drawn.
Deck work we do
Some decks need a fresh surface, some need a new frame, and some need to come down and start over. We check the structure first and tell you which yours is.
New decks
- Attached and freestanding decks
- Ground-level and raised decks
- Pressure-treated, cedar or composite
- Built to your layout, sized to your yard
Rebuilds and resurfacing
- New boards on a sound existing frame
- Rotted joists, beams and posts replaced
- Old wood swapped for composite
- Ledger re-flashed and re-bolted to the house
Stairs and railings
- New stairs and landings
- Wood, composite or metal railings
- Loose or wobbly railings made solid
- Framing for porches and steps
Choosing your decking
The frame is pressure-treated lumber either way. The choice is what goes on top.
Pressure-treated wood
The lowest upfront cost. Needs staining or sealing every few years to keep it looking good and to slow cracking and splinters.
Cedar
Natural wood look and smell, lighter and more stable than pressure-treated. Costs more and still needs regular sealing.
Composite
Costs more upfront, but no staining or sanding, just washing. Comes in many colors and holds up well to weather.

914-826-9009 Monday to Saturday, 7am to 7pmQuestions we hear a lot
Can you put new boards on my old deck frame?
Often, yes, if the frame is still sound. We check the joists, beam, posts and the ledger where the deck meets the house. If parts are rotted or undersized, we replace those first so the new boards aren't sitting on a weak frame.
Composite or wood?
Wood costs less upfront but needs staining or sealing every few years. Composite costs more upfront but only needs washing. We'll price both so you can compare.
Do I need a permit?
Many towns require one for a new deck or a rebuild, especially for raised decks. We'll tell you what your town asks for during the walk-through.
When should I book?
Spring and early summer fill up first. Booking in fall or winter for a spring build gives you the most choice of dates.
