Premium Decking Materials

The foundation of a great deck lies in the quality of its materials. In Oakland’s varied climate, your deck needs to withstand it all. That’s why we offer a curated selection of premium materials. Our composite decking from AZEK and TimberTech offers the perfect blend of durability and low maintenance, resisting fading, staining, and warping.

For those who love the natural charm of wood, our redwood decking provides classic beauty and natural resistance to decay. And for the ultimate in luxury, our exotic hardwoods offer unparalleled strength as well as richness in color and grain.

Professional Deck Maintenance

A well-built deck is an investment in your Oakland home’s value and your family’s enjoyment. Our “Decks for Life” maintenance program is designed to protect and prolong that investment.

Our team conducts regular deck inspections, meticulously checking for any signs of wear, loose fasteners, or potential safety issues. By catching and addressing these early, we prevent small problems from becoming costly repairs. This proactive approach not only saves you money in the long run but also ensures that your deck remains a safe, beautiful, and functional part of your home year after year.
