How much does a new deck cost?

Deck pricing depends on the size, layout, height, materials, railing style, stairs, and site conditions. A simple backyard deck will cost less than a large custom deck with multiple levels, built-in seating, or premium composite decking. For bigger projects, we can often give a preliminary budget range early on so you know whether the plan fits your goals before we move forward. The best way to get real numbers is to contact us for a quote. We’ll review your project, schedule an on-site visit, and provide a clear proposal.

What materials do you build decks with?

We build custom decks using quality materials based on your style, maintenance preference, and budget. That includes traditional wood decking and low-maintenance composite decking, as well as custom railings, stairs, and covered deck features when needed. During the estimate, we’ll explain the pros and cons of each option so you can choose the right fit for your home and how you plan to use the space.

How long does a deck project usually take?

Most deck projects start with a phone call and an on-site visit so we can understand the space, measurements, and design goals. The full timeline depends on project size, material selection, permit needs, and weather. Smaller deck builds move faster, while larger custom outdoor living spaces take more time. We keep communication open from start to finish, let you know what to expect, and work hard to stay on schedule.

Do you help with deck design, layout, and features?

Yes. We do more than just build. We help homeowners plan a deck that works for relaxing, entertaining, grilling, and everyday use. We can talk through deck size, shape, stairs, railing options, transitions to the yard, and add-ons like pergolas or covers. Our goal is to build an outdoor space that looks great, feels comfortable, and adds real value to your property.

Deck Builder Portland OR | D&T Premium Fencing & Decking

At D&T Premium Fencing & Decking, we build custom decks that give homeowners more usable outdoor space and add real value to the home. A well-built deck is more than a platform in the backyard. It becomes a place to relax after work, host family and friends, enjoy summer evenings, and make the most of your property year-round. We design and build decks that are made to fit the home, the yard, and the way you plan to use the space.

We work with homeowners who want a deck that looks great, feels solid underfoot, and holds up over time. Whether you want a simple ground-level deck, a large entertaining area, a multi-level layout, or a deck built around a patio cover or pergola, we focus on clean construction, smart planning, and lasting beauty. Every project is custom-built, not treated like a one-size-fits-all package.

What our deck service includes

Our deck service covers the full process from planning to completion. We start by learning about your goals, your budget, and your property. Some customers want a quiet outdoor retreat. Others want a space for grilling, dining, and gatherings. We help shape the layout based on how you live and how your yard works.

During the planning stage, we look at important details such as deck size, elevation, access points, traffic flow, sun exposure, views, drainage, and how the new structure will connect to your home. We also talk through materials, railing options, stairs, skirting, and add-on features that improve comfort and function.

Custom deck options

Because every home is different, we build decks in a wide range of styles and configurations. Some homeowners want a classic backyard deck that extends from the rear entry. Others need a wraparound deck, poolside deck, or a raised deck that helps manage uneven grade. We can also help create a deck layout with separate zones for dining, lounging, and entertaining.

We guide customers through practical choices that affect both appearance and performance. That includes board direction, step placement, railing style, deck height, and how to create a finished look that fits the house. If your project includes shade or weather protection, we can also plan for a pergola or cover as part of the overall outdoor living space.

Materials and craftsmanship

The strength of any deck starts with the structure underneath. We pay close attention to the framing, supports, and installation details that make the deck safe, stable, and long-lasting. A beautiful deck surface means very little if the foundation and framing are not built correctly. That is why we take a careful approach from the ground up.

We can discuss material options based on your goals for maintenance, appearance, and budget. Some homeowners prefer the natural look of wood. Others want composite decking for lower maintenance and long-term durability. We help you compare the pros and cons so you can make the right decision for your home and lifestyle.

Our team takes pride in the details. We focus on proper spacing, clean lines, secure fastening, solid structural work, and a finished look that feels polished and professional. As a small business, we know that our reputation depends on every job we complete. That is why we stay focused on quality, communication, and doing the work the right way.

Deck replacement and upgrades

If you already have an older deck, we can assess its condition and talk through replacement options. Many aging decks have issues such as loose railings, worn boards, unstable stairs, outdated layouts, or structural concerns caused by moisture and time. In some cases, a partial rebuild may make sense. In other cases, full deck replacement is the safer and smarter long-term investment.

We help homeowners understand what is worth saving, what should be rebuilt, and how a new deck can improve both safety and appearance. Replacing an old deck is also a great chance to expand the footprint, improve the layout, add better access, or upgrade materials for easier maintenance.

Our process

We keep our process straightforward and personal. Most projects begin with a form submission through our website. Dean reviews the project details, reaches out to introduce himself, and gathers any missing information such as contact details, address, and a better understanding of the scope. From there, we schedule an on-site visit so one of us can assess the space and talk through your goals in person.

After the site visit, we provide a formal quote. For larger deck projects, we may first provide a preliminary budget range so you can confirm the project is in line with your expectations before moving forward. We find this helps homeowners make informed decisions early and keeps the process efficient and transparent.

Throughout the job, we believe in open communication. We want customers to know what to expect, what choices need to be made, and how the project is progressing. Our goal is to make the experience feel collaborative, organized, and stress-free from the first conversation to the final walkthrough.

When your project is approved, we schedule construction and complete your deck with close attention to structure, fit, and clean finish work. We keep communication open during the build, then finish with a full walkthrough to make sure every board, rail, and detail meets our standards and yours.
