Source: https://penderpro.com/deck-install/

## Direct answer

From a simple ground-level platform to multi-level decks with stairs, railings, and built-ins — we build custom decks designed around how you actually use your backyard. Quality lumber, code-compliant construction, and a finish you'll be proud to host on.

## Key takeaways

- **Custom Designed** — Built around your yard, your house, and how you live.
- **Quality Lumber** — Pressure-treated, cedar, or composite — your choice.
- **Code Compliant** — Permits handled, inspections passed.
- **Stain &amp; Seal Option** — We can stain it too, so it lasts.

## The Foundation Is Everything

Cheap decks fail at the joists and footings — the parts you can't see. We engineer the substructure for our climate (humidity, ground freeze cycles, drainage), use proper hardware, and set footings deep. The deck you see on day one is built on bones that last decades.

## Frequently asked questions

**What materials do you build decks with?**

Pressure-treated pine is the workhorse. Cedar costs more but resists rot naturally. Composite (Trex-style) is most expensive up front but never needs staining. We'll walk through tradeoffs on your free quote.

**Do I need a permit?**

Most municipalities in the CSRA require a permit for decks over a certain height or square footage. We handle the permit process for you.

**How long does a deck install take?**

A typical residential deck takes 1–2 weeks depending on size, complexity, and weather. Multi-level builds and built-ins extend that timeline.

**Can you build a deck attached to my house?**

Yes — and properly attaching a deck to the home is critical. We use proper ledger boards, flashing, and structural connections so the deck never pulls away from the house.
