Before
After
From a small backyard platform behind a craftsman bungalow to a hillside deck built to handle a steep lot, we build decks sized for how Seattle homes actually sit on their land.
Seattle's older neighborhoods — craftsman bungalows, rowhouses, and homes built on sloped lots — often come with a small, aging deck that was never quite built to code, or a backyard that's never had a deck at all because the lot drops away too steeply for a simple platform. Both are solvable; they just need a design that fits the actual lot instead of a generic layout.
We work across Seattle — Phinney Ridge, Magnolia, Queen Anne, West Seattle, and Ballard — on everything from a compact backyard deck on a standard city lot to an elevated deck built on posts and footings for a steep hillside yard. A lot of our Seattle projects involve tighter lots and tighter access, which changes how we plan material delivery and framing.
Seattle requires a permit through the Seattle Department of Construction & Inspections (SDCI) for any deck attached to the house or elevated above grade, and steep-slope lots can trigger additional review. We pull the permit, manage the SDCI process, and handle every inspection so you don't have to.

Most deck projects go wrong in the details most homeowners never see. We handle all of it.
We design the deck around your actual lot — slope, sun exposure, and how you'll use the space — not a generic template.
We pull all required permits and manage every inspection with Seattle Department of Construction & Inspections (SDCI). You never have to deal with the city.
Full removal of the old structure and code-built framing underneath — the part that determines whether the new deck lasts.
Trex composite or cedar decking, installed with proper flashing and spacing so it stays flat and dry for years.
Trex railing systems and custom stair layouts, built to code and matched to the decking for a clean, finished look.
We walk every detail with you before closing the job. If anything isn't right, we fix it — no questions asked.
A deck is only as good as what's underneath it. Here's what's actually involved in the work we do every day.
No staining, ever. Resists moisture, mold, and fading. 25-year warranty — our default for this climate.
Lower upfront cost, natural look. Needs resealing every 2-3 years in the Pacific Northwest.
Trex or custom wood, built to code and matched to your decking.
Every joist wrapped in flashing tape before decking goes down — the step most contractors skip.
Engineered post & footing plans for sloped or view lots, stairs built to fit the grade.
Full permit management with Seattle Department of Construction & Inspections (SDCI), including every inspection along the way.
