The Benefits of Wood Decks
Installing a deck in your backyard is one of the easiest ways to increase your living space and it is a great investment in your home’s equity. Wood deck installations have a natural look and feel all their own. Less expensive than a composite or vinyl decking material, they can give you long service with the right maintenance and care. As the leading wood deck builder in Kitchener, Waterloo, and the surrounding areas, we have vast experience using many different building materials in our construction. Let us help you create your very own beautiful backyard retreat
Cedar Decking
Cedar is as durable as many other types of wood with its natural capabilities to resist moisture, rot and infestations of insects. As one of the top natural choices for deck building, this wood actually changes its moisture levels to match the atmosphere. Moisture is what often causes wood to warp and crack, especially in a place of climate extremes like Canada. Using cedar can reduce maintenance issues and add years to a deck’s life. It smells great too!
Pressure-Treated Decking
Pressure-treated decking is rot and insect resistant, and less expensive than cedar. Its lowest priced versions can be prone to shrinking and warping, It’s better to use higher-grade pressure treated wood. On all projects, pressured treated lumber is often used to build deck structure and supports, because of its durability and strength.
At Premier Fencing, our wood deck installation process is fast, reliable, efficient and cost effective. Whether you are looking for cedar decking, pressure-treated decking or hardwood decking, the sky is the limit. We begin with a free, onsite consultation, assessing the space and speaking with you to share your backyard vision.
Afterwards we provide a free, no-obligation estimate for the work, including all wood deck costs and labour. The deck will be custom designed for your special requirements and then built with the quality and speed that has earned the Boyer family its reputation as premium wood deck builder for over 90 years.
Once your deck is finished, our professional crew will ensure the work area is tidied and returned to its original, pristine condition. Our wood deck installations are backed by a two-year warranty that will provide you peace of mind.
A reputable wood deck builder should be open, transparent and answer all questions honestly. For peace of mind, they should also have long experience in the field and be prepared to provide customer testimonials and references, if desired.
Here are some of the things you should ask a prospective contractor, before signing a contract:
- Will you provide a real quotation? – Some wood deck installation companies provide “estimates” instead of “quotations.” Extra charges will often come up along the way and the final bill can end up higher than the estimate. A quotation should reflect the amount on the final bill.
- Is a deposit required? – A reputable builder will not often ask for a large deposit for wood deck costs upfront. They have the financial means to purchase and stock materials and then invoice at the successful completion of the project, when everyone is happy.
- Do you have the proper insurance and licensing? – A reputable wood deck installation professional has the necessary insurance and licensing to conduct business. A handyman doing jobs on the side might not have the insurance to cover someone getting hurt on the job, or the professional standing to get a work permit.
- Do you provide a warranty? – A good wood deck company backs their work with a warranty. A material warranty will vary in duration and terms and should last at least two years, covering two cycles of the four seasons.
