What we build

Custom Decks built for South Texas living.

A custom deck is a raised outdoor platform — built from wood, composite, or PVC — engineered around a home’s slope, sun exposure, and how the space will be used. The right material depends on your budget, how much maintenance you want, and how long you need it to look new.

A deck in South Texas has a hard job: shrug off blistering UV in July, hold up through hail in April, and still feel solid under boots, bare feet, and a smoker full of brisket on a Saturday. We design every deck around the materials and substructure best suited to those conditions — and we're upfront about the staining and upkeep each one needs to stay that way — not whatever a big-box lumberyard had on the truck that morning.

Every build starts with a free on-site walk-through. We map the slope, the sightlines, the sun path, and how the space will actually get used — dinners for two, parties for thirty, a hot tub deck, a covered second story off the master. Then we put it on paper with line-item pricing, a 3D render, and a build schedule you can plan a vacation around.

From a 200-square-foot back deck in Cibolo to a multi-level 1,200-square-foot deck wrapping a Canyon Lake hillside, the same in-house crew handles framing, decking, railings, lighting, and finish work. No subcontracting the build out and disappearing.

Options

Decking materials we install.

We help you pick a material that fits your budget, your maintenance appetite, and how long you want it to look new.

  • Pressure-treated pine

    The most budget-friendly option. Properly sealed and stained, a pressure-treated deck looks great for years. We use ground-contact-rated lumber and stainless or hot-dipped fasteners only.

  • Western red cedar

    Naturally rot- and insect-resistant with a warm, classic look that ages beautifully. Cedar handles humidity well and stays cooler underfoot than dark composites in full sun.

  • Composite (TimberTech & Trex)

    Splinter-free, fade-resistant, and backed by 25- to 50-year warranties. Modern composites convincingly mimic exotic hardwoods without the upkeep — perfect for busy households.

  • Ipe & exotic hardwoods

    Dense, dark, naturally fire-resistant tropical hardwoods that can outlast the house. Premium look, premium price, and we install with hidden fasteners for a clean surface.

  • PVC capped decking

    Fully synthetic boards with a polymer cap. The most stain- and moisture-resistant option — ideal for pool decks and shaded areas prone to algae.

  • Aluminum railings & cable rail

    Powder-coated aluminum, glass panel, and stainless cable railings that don't block the view. All railing systems meet Texas residential code for height and load.

FAQ

Questions about custom decks?

  • How long does a custom deck build take in San Antonio?
    Most ground-level decks under 400 square feet finish in 2 to 3 weeks once any required permits and HOA approvals are in place. Larger multi-level decks, decks with covered roofs, and HOA-heavy neighborhoods typically run 4 to 6 weeks from break-ground to walkthrough. We give you a firm window in writing before you sign.
  • Do I need a permit or HOA approval for my deck?
    It depends on your jurisdiction and neighborhood. We build every deck to local code and will walk you through which permits or HOA approvals your project needs, so there are no surprises. We're also fully insured and bonded.
  • What's the difference between cedar and composite decking?
    Cedar is real wood — warmer underfoot, classic look, needs re-staining every 2 to 3 years to stay sharp. Composite is a wood-plastic blend that needs almost zero maintenance and comes with a 25-year fade warranty, but costs more upfront and runs hotter in direct sun. We help you pick based on how you actually use the space.
  • How much does a custom deck cost in the San Antonio area?
    Pressure-treated decks generally run $35-$55 per square foot installed. Cedar runs $55-$85. Composite runs $75-$130 depending on the brand and railing system. Multi-level builds, covered roofs, integrated lighting, and built-in benches add to that — your written quote breaks every line out so you know exactly what you're paying for.
  • Do you offer a warranty on your decks?
    Yes. You get our workmanship warranty in writing on every build, plus the full manufacturer warranty on composite decking (25 to 50 years), hardware, and stains. If something fails, we come fix it.
