Deck Design That Makes Life Better
Our team designs decks that make the most of every square foot, creating spaces you’ll love to use.
- Outdoor Living Hub: We design gathering spaces that are perfect for summer barbecues and relaxing evenings under the stars. You can customize with clearly defined zones for grilling, dining, and lounging, with built-in features like planter boxes and storage benches to keep the space tidy and functional.
- Year-Round Use: Our decks are built to thrive in Portland’s climate, with features like covered areas to protect against rain and lighting that extends outdoor use into the evening. Recessed lights in stair risers and post caps add both safety and ambiance, so your deck remains a favorite spot no matter the time of year.
- Natural Extension: Our designs create smooth transitions between indoor and outdoor spaces. Thoughtful features like French doors, wide steps, and privacy screens make the space feel natural and inviting, while pergolas and other elements add character and intimacy without blocking the view.
Quality Materials for Portland Weather
Our team selects materials that perform well in the Pacific Northwest’s challenging climate. Here are some great options:
- Hardwood Options: Materials like ipe and mahogany bring exceptional strength and natural beauty. These dense woods resist moisture for a deck that looks great for years.
- Juniper: Known for its incredible durability and resistance to decay, juniper thrives in the Pacific Northwest. It’s an eco-friendly choice that stands up to Portland’s rainy seasons.
- Cedar: Naturally resistant to moisture and decay, cedar is perfect for Portland’s wet climate. Its durability and classic appearance make it a favorite for custom decks.
