A deck built to hold up, not just look good on day one
Most deck problems trace back to what’s underneath it: footings poured too shallow, ledger boards attached without proper flashing, or joists spaced wider than the decking material calls for. We build to code on every project, which means proper footings, correct joist spacing, and flashing details that keep water away from the house rather than into it.
As a custom deck builder serving Dalton, Chatsworth, Cleveland, and the surrounding counties in Georgia, Tennessee, and Alabama, we work in both pressure-treated wood and composite decking, along with railing, stairs, and covered structures where a project calls for one.
What the Job Includes
- Site walk and layout review, including grade and drainage
- Permit pulled and footings poured to local code
- Framing, including ledger attachment and flashing at the house
- Decking installed, pressure-treated wood or composite
- Railing, stairs, and any covered structure built to spec
- Final inspection and walkthrough before the job is considered complete
Built for Georgia and Tennessee ground and weather
Clay-heavy soil across much of Northwest Georgia and the foothills toward Tennessee shifts more than sandy or rocky ground, which makes footing depth and placement more important here than in a lot of other regions. Add in a Southern summer’s UV exposure and the humidity swings between seasons, and the case for composite decking over standard lumber gets stronger for owners who want less maintenance year over year. We’ll walk through both options and what each one actually costs over a 10-year span, not just at installation.
FAQ
Yes. Permits are pulled and inspected as part of the job, not left for the homeowner to sort out.
Depends on budget and how much upkeep you want long-term. Pressure-treated wood costs less upfront but needs regular staining or sealing. Composite costs more upfront but holds up with little maintenance for decades. We’ll go over both during the estimate.
A standard-size deck usually runs 1 to 2 weeks from framing to final decking, depending on size, material, and whether a permit inspection adds a delay.
Yes. Covered decks and pergola-style structures are common add-ons, either built at the same time as the deck or added later.
Both. If an existing deck has failed footings, rotted framing, or damaged decking, we’ll assess whether it’s a repair or a full rebuild and give you an honest recommendation either way.
Yes. We run regular jobs in Cleveland, TN and Chattanooga, and take on larger projects in Alabama. Travel is factored into the quote up front.
Depends on permitting and current schedule, most estimate visits happen within a week of your call, with a start date confirmed once the permit is approved.
