What Clarkston Homeowners Are Asking Us Most
How much does it cost to build a deck in Clarkston, MI?
Deck costs vary depending on the size, materials, and design complexity. On average, Clarkston homeowners can expect to invest between $10,000 and $25,000 for a high-quality custom deck. We offer free consultations to provide accurate, personalized estimates based on your vision and space.
What's the best decking material for Michigan weather?
Trex composite decking is a top choice for Michigan homes thanks to its resistance to moisture, mold, and temperature swings. It doesn't crack, warp, or fade like traditional wood, making it ideal for Clarkston's cold winters and humid summers. Cedar and Ipe are also durable natural wood options for those seeking a more classic look.
Can you build decks year-round in Clarkston?
We build decks throughout the year—even in colder months—with proper planning and weather consideration. Winter builds can be a smart choice if you want your deck ready by spring. Our team will assess conditions and recommend the best timeline for your project.
Do you offer warranties on your deck builds?
Yes—we back all of our craftsmanship with a five-year workmanship guarantee so that you can feel confident in the quality of your build. Plus, Trex composite decking comes with a 25-year Limited Residential Fade & Stain Warranty, giving you long-term protection from the industry's leading manufacturer. It's support that lasts as long as your deck does.
