How much does a new deck cost?

Deck cost depends on the size, layout, materials, railing style, stairs, and any custom features like built-in seating or lighting. A simple wood deck will cost less than a large composite deck with multiple levels. At 616 Custom Construction, we give clear estimates so you know what to expect before work starts. The best way to get accurate pricing is to contact us for a quote based on your home and goals.

How long does deck construction take?

Most deck building projects take anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on the size of the deck, site conditions, material availability, and permit timing. We will give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated throughout the project. Our goal is to build your deck the right way without unnecessary delays.

Do I need a permit for a new deck?

In many cases, yes. Permit requirements depend on the deck size, height, and local building codes. We help guide homeowners through that process and make sure the project is built to code. That gives you peace of mind that your new deck is safe, structurally sound, and ready for years of use.

What is the best material for my deck: wood or composite?

That depends on your budget, style, and how much maintenance you want to deal with. Wood decks offer a natural look and can be a great value. Composite decking is durable, low maintenance, and popular with homeowners who want long-term convenience. We can walk you through the pros and cons of each so you can choose the best option for your home.

Can you build a custom deck design for my backyard?

Yes. We build custom decks based on how you want to use the space. Whether you want a simple backyard deck, a large entertaining area, steps to the yard, or a multi-level deck, we can help design a layout that fits your home and property. We focus on function, appearance, and solid construction from the ground up.

Deck Building Services | 616 Custom Construction

At 616 Custom Construction, we build custom decks that give you more usable space, better curb appeal, and a place to enjoy your backyard. A well-built deck is more than a platform behind the house. It is where families gather, friends visit, and quiet summer nights feel even better. We help homeowners create decks that fit the home, the yard, and the way they actually live.

We handle deck building from start to finish. That includes planning, layout, material selection, structural framing, stairs, railings, and final finish details. Whether you want a simple ground-level deck or a larger multi-level outdoor living space, we build with strength, safety, and long-term value in mind. Our goal is to deliver a deck that looks great and holds up well through years of use and changing weather.

What Our Deck Building Service Includes

Every deck project starts with a conversation about how you want to use the space. Some customers want a quiet backyard retreat.

Designed for Your Home and Yard

No two properties are the same, and that is why custom deck construction matters. We look at the grade of your yard, access points from the house, drainage, sun exposure, and how the deck will connect with the rest of your landscape. A deck should feel like a natural extension of your home, not an afterthought. We pay attention to scale, traffic flow, and the overall look so the finished space feels comfortable and complete.

We can build decks around patios, pools, backyard gardens, and outdoor gathering areas. We also help customers think ahead about features like space for furniture, grill placement, privacy, and stair access to the lawn. These details make a big difference in how useful the deck feels once it is finished.

Material Options

Choosing the right decking material is a big part of the project. We walk you through the pros and cons of each option based on your budget, maintenance goals, and style preferences. Many homeowners choose between traditional wood decking and low-maintenance composite decking.

Wood decks offer a classic natural look and can be a great choice for homeowners who like the warmth and character of real lumber. Composite decking is popular because it is durable, easy to maintain, and available in a wide range of colors and finishes. If you want less upkeep over time, composite is often a smart investment.

We also help with matching railing systems, trim details, fascia boards, and stair materials so the entire deck has a clean and finished appearance.

Built for Strength and Safety

Decks need to do more than look good. They need to be safe, solid, and built the right way. We focus on proper footings, strong framing, secure connections, and reliable support throughout the structure. We take the time to build with care so your deck feels sturdy underfoot and performs the way it should.

Safety features are also a key part of the work. That may include railings, code-conscious stair design, proper spacing, and smooth transitions at entry points. We believe quality deck construction starts with the structure beneath the surface, not just the boards you see on top.

Benefits of a New Deck

A custom backyard deck can improve both your home and your lifestyle. It adds functional outdoor living space without the cost of a full home addition. It also gives you a defined area to relax, entertain, cook outdoors, and spend more time outside with family and guests.
