The Service

Built for Florida’s Weather. Built to Last.

A deck or patio is one of the best investments you can make in a Florida home — outdoor living space that gets used year-round. But Florida’s combination of intense UV exposure, summer humidity, and heavy afternoon rain punishes cheap materials and sloppy construction fast. We build with that in mind from the first post to the final board.

Whether you want a simple pressure-treated wood deck off the back door, a fully screened lanai with composite decking, or a pergola to shade your existing patio, we handle the full project — design, materials, permitting coordination, and construction. No half-finished jobs, no subcontractors you’ve never met showing up unannounced.

FAQs

Deck & Patio Questions, Answered

For most Orlando homeowners, composite decking (brands like Trex or TimberTech) is the best long-term choice. It resists Florida’s UV rays, doesn’t absorb moisture that causes rot and mold, and doesn’t need annual sealing. The upfront cost is 20–40% higher than pressure-treated pine, but the 10-year maintenance cost is far lower. If budget is the priority, pressure-treated lumber works well in Florida with proper sealing every 2 years. We’ll walk you through both options and the real cost comparison before you commit.
In most cases, yes. Orange County and the City of Orlando require building permits for attached decks, elevated platforms, screened enclosures, and structures above a certain square footage. Permit requirements can also depend on your HOA. We handle the permit application and coordination as part of the project — you won’t need to navigate the county building department yourself. Unpermitted decks can cause major issues at resale, so we never skip this step.
A ground-level pressure-treated wood deck (12x16 ft) typically starts around $3,500–$5,500 in the Orlando area. The same footprint in composite decking runs $5,500–$9,000. A screened enclosure or lanai addition adds $4,000–$12,000 depending on size and materials. Pergolas start around $2,800 for a basic 10x10 structure. Prices vary based on site conditions, materials selected, permit fees, and any demolition or grading required. Send us your dimensions and we’ll give you a real number.
A straightforward ground-level deck takes 2–4 days of construction once materials are on site. Factor in 1–3 weeks for permit approval from Orange County, and material lead times of 5–10 business days for composite decking. Screened enclosures and larger structures typically take 4–7 days of on-site work. We’ll give you a realistic timeline before the project starts — not the overly optimistic one that leads to disappointment.
For pressure-treated wood decks: clean and reseal every 1–2 years, ideally in the fall after summer humidity peaks. Watch for soft spots, discoloration, and loose fasteners annually — caught early, these are minor repairs. For composite decking: rinse with a garden hose seasonally and scrub with a composite-safe cleaner once a year to prevent mold buildup in the grooves. Florida’s shade conditions (especially under oak trees) accelerate mold on any surface, so an annual light scrub goes a long way. We’re also happy to come out for a maintenance check and reseal when the time comes.
