Decks + Outdoor Living
Deck construction and exterior carpentry from a Southern Oregon general contractor.
Outdoor spaces built for real life.
I specialize in deck construction and bring an experienced deck builder's eye to the structure, layout, stairs, railings, transitions, and finish details. I can build a traditional wood deck using cedar or a low-maintenance composite deck using Trex or TimberTech, depending on the look, maintenance level, budget, and long-term performance you want from the space.
Cedar, Trex, or TimberTech—built correctly from the frame up.
A beautiful deck starts with sound structure and careful layout. I build complete deck systems, not just the visible surface, and help homeowners choose between traditional cedar and modern composite materials based on appearance, maintenance, durability, budget, and how the deck will actually be used.
Conventional cedar decks
Cedar offers a warm, natural look that fits Southern Oregon homes beautifully. A conventional wood deck can be built with cedar decking, stairs, trim, and coordinated railing details for a classic finished appearance.
Trex composite decking
Trex is a strong option for homeowners who want the look of a finished deck with less routine maintenance than traditional wood. It works well for new decks, replacements, stairs, and larger outdoor living spaces.
TimberTech composite decking
TimberTech provides another premium composite option with a range of wood-inspired finishes. I can build the supporting structure, decking, stairs, railings, and finish details as one coordinated project.
Decks built with the structure and finish in mind.
