Do I need a permit for a new deck or fence?

Most decks over a specific height and all pool-enclosure fences require permits. We handle the paperwork and inspections for you.

Composite vs. wood — what lasts longer in Ontario weather?

Composite typically lasts longer with less maintenance. Wood offers a lower initial cost and a classic look but needs periodic staining/sealing.

How long does a typical deck build take?

After permits, most standard decks take 3–10 days depending on size, materials, and site conditions.

Can you build close to the water or on uneven terrain?

Yes. We assess conservation/shores, soil, and grading, then specify footings or helical piles as needed.

What fence heights are allowed?

It depends on location, lot type, and whether it’s a pool enclosure. We design to local bylaws and safety codes.

Do you remove old structures?

Yes—safe removal and disposal is available and can be included in your quote.

Do you do custom railings, lighting, and privacy screens?

Absolutely. We design and install railings, stair lighting, and privacy features that match your style.

What maintenance is required for composite?

Just wash with mild soap and water as needed. No staining or sealing.

What’s the warranty?

Material warranties vary by product; our workmanship warranty is included with every project.
