Deck Building FAQ

Thinking about building a new deck? Here are some of the most common questions homeowners in South Jersey ask before they start.

1. Do I need a permit for a new deck in New Jersey?

Most towns require permits for new decks and many replacements. We’ll help you gather drawings and handle the inspections.

2. How long does a typical deck project take?

Most builds take 5–10 working days after footing and inspection approval. Larger or custom projects can take longer.

3. What deck materials do you recommend?

We install Trex, and pressure-treated lumber. Each has pros and cons for cost, durability, and look.

4. Can you help design my deck?

Yes. We create 3D mockups so you can visualize the layout and colors before we build.

5. Do you offer financing?

Yes — we partner with Wisetack so you can prequalify quickly with no credit impact.

6. How long will my deck last?

Composite decks typically last 25 + years with minimal upkeep. Wood decks need sealing every few years but can last 15 – 20 years with care.

7. Do you handle permits and inspections?

We can help with all necessary paperwork and coordinate inspections to make sure your project passes smoothly.

8. Do you work year-round?

Yes. We build decks in all seasons, weather permitting, and fall is often the best time to book before spring rush.​
