Everything we take on

Every job below is one we do ourselves across Miami Gardens.

Deck Installation

We frame and build new decks from pressure-treated lumber or composite, sized and engineered for Miami-Dade wind load code. Footings get poured to the depth your soil and span require, not a flat number pulled from a catalog.

Deck Repair

Soft or spongy boards, wobbly railings and posts that have started to lean usually mean something underneath has already failed. We pull up the decking to check the joists and hangers before replacing a single board, so the repair actually fixes the problem instead of covering it.

Deck Staining & Sealing

Florida sun bleaches and dries out wood faster than almost anywhere else in the country. We strip the old finish, sand back the greying layer, and reseal with a product rated for UV and standing water, usually every one to two years depending on sun exposure.

Custom Deck Design

We'll sketch out a layout around how you actually use the yard, whether that's a grill station, a hot tub pad or just somewhere to put a table. Multi-level decks and built-in benches add framing time, and that gets priced in upfront.

Composite Decking Installation

Composite boards don't splinter and skip the yearly staining wood needs, and they hold up better than wood in humidity, but they cost more per square foot and still need a properly spaced frame underneath. Installation uses hidden fastener systems so no screw heads show on the walking surface.

Deck Railing Installation & Repair

Railings have to meet a 36 to 42 inch height code and baluster spacing under 4 inches, and a lot of older decks around Miami-Dade don't meet either. Railings get rebuilt to current code whether or not the rest of the deck is original.

Deck Resurfacing

If the frame's still solid but the decking on top is cupped, splintered or just worn out, the boards get replaced and the structure underneath stays alone. It's a faster and cheaper fix than a full rebuild when the frame checks out.

Deck Framing & Structural Repair

Joists, beams and posts take the real load, and rot or rust here is what actually brings a deck down, not the surface boards. Failed framing gets replaced with pressure-treated lumber and stainless or hot-dip galvanized hangers rated for coastal humidity.

Screened-In Deck & Porch Construction

A screen enclosure keeps the bugs out without losing the breeze, framed to tie into the existing roofline or built freestanding. These usually need their own permit separate from the deck permit, which gets handled as part of the job.

Pool Deck Installation

Pool decks around Miami-Dade take more direct sun and pool chemical splash than a standard backyard deck, so composite or coated boards are usually a better call than raw wood. Decking gets a slight slope away from the pool coping so water doesn't pool against the frame.

Common Questions

Things worth asking

Questions that come up once a deck project is actually underway.

Do I need a permit to build or repair a deck?
Most new deck construction in Miami-Dade requires a permit due to wind load and structural code, and that permit is pulled before framing starts. Minor repairs like board replacement or restaining usually skip that step, but structural changes to framing or railings often need one.
How long does it take to build a deck?
A standard single-level deck usually takes one to two weeks from the start of framing to the final board, not counting permit approval time upfront. Multi-level decks, screened enclosures, or custom features add time to both design and build.
Can you work within a set budget?
Material choice is the biggest lever on cost, and pressure-treated pine, composite, and higher-end hardwoods all sit at different price points. A quote can be built around a target number by adjusting square footage or material grade before work starts.
Do you guarantee your deck work?
Workmanship on framing, decking, and railings is covered for a set period after completion, with details spelled out in the written quote. Material warranties from composite manufacturers are separate and get passed along to the homeowner.
Who do I talk to during the project, a project manager or the crew directly?
Day-to-day questions get answered directly by whoever's running the job on site, not routed through a separate office contact. That keeps decisions, like a last-minute railing style change, from getting lost in translation.
What decking materials do you work with?
Pressure-treated pine, composite boards like Trex or TimberTech, and occasionally hardwoods like ipe are all options depending on budget and maintenance preference. Pressure-treated costs less upfront but requires restaining every one to two years, while composite costs more initially and requires almost none.
Can I still use my yard while the deck is being built?
Most of the yard stays accessible during a deck build, though the immediate work area gets fenced off or blocked for safety, especially during footing and framing stages. Full closure is usually only needed for a day or two around concrete pours.
Do I need to do anything to prepare the site before work starts?
Clearing furniture, grills, and planters off the existing deck or the build area helps the crew start on schedule. Underground sprinkler lines or buried cable near the footing locations are worth flagging before digging starts.
What happens if you find rot or damage once the old deck is torn out?
Hidden rot in ledger boards, posts, or joists shows up more often than not once the old decking comes off, and it gets flagged before any new material goes over it. The quote gets adjusted for the additional repair, with the homeowner seeing the cost before work continues.
How do I maintain a deck after it's finished?
Wood decks require restaining roughly every one to two years in Florida sun, plus a rinse to clear leaves and debris that trap moisture against the boards. Composite decking mainly requires periodic washing to prevent mildew buildup and skips sealing altogether.
