How Our Deck Building Process Works
Step 1
Consultation & Design Planning
We begin with a complimentary 60-minute design consultation to understand your space, goals, and how you want to use your outdoor area. In-person meetings are recommended, with virtual consultations available when needed.
During this stage, we’ll:
✅ Discuss layout, style preferences, and must-have features
✅ Review material options including composite, PVC, and wood
✅ Explore privacy screens, pergolas, stairs, and built-ins
✅ Assess site conditions and structural requirements
Step 2
Custom Design & Formal Quote
Following the consultation, we prepare a fully customized deck design and a detailed formal quote.
This includes:
✅ 3D renderings and material selections
✅ Collaborative design revisions
✅ Transparent, fixed pricing
Step 3
Permits, Construction & Final Walkthrough
Once the design is approved, we manage the entire build process—from drawings and permit submissions to inspections and final cleanup.
You can expect:
✅ Municipal permit coordination and Ontario Building Code compliance
✅ Professional construction using premium materials
✅ Structured scheduling and proactive communication
✅ Thorough final walkthrough and complete site cleanup
