Custom Decks & Outdoor Living for Metairie Homes
Whether you’re replacing a tired, splintery deck or starting from scratch, we help you plan:
-
New deck builds – ground-level and raised decks designed around your doors, windows, and views
-
Composite & wood decks – Trex®, TimberTech®, and classic wood options
-
Deck resurfacing / re-decking – keep a solid frame, upgrade the surface
-
Deck repairs & structural restoration – from soft spots to unsafe railings
-
Deck inspections – safety and code checks for older decks or real-estate deals
-
Pergolas & patio covers – real shade for Gulf Coast sun
-
Under-deck drainage (dry-space) – turn under a second-story deck into a dry patio
Each project is designed to match your home’s style and your budget, not a one-size-fits-all template.
Built for Metairie’s Climate, Soil & Sun
Metairie yards come with their own set of challenges:
-
Hot, humid summers that cook unshaded decks
-
Heavy afternoon storms that punish framing and fasteners
-
Older homes with low door thresholds and tricky drainage
-
Tight side yards and service alleys in Old Metairie
We design your deck or shade structure to handle it:
-
Proper footings and posts sized for local soil and wind
-
Framing details that shed water instead of trapping it
-
Flashing and ledger details that protect your house wall
-
Low-maintenance composite and aluminum options if you don’t want to stain every few years

Metairie Deck FAQs
Do you only work in Metairie?
Metairie is our main focus, but we also work in nearby areas like Kenner, Harahan, River Ridge, and parts of New Orleans and St. Bernard on a case-by-case basis.
Can you work with my existing concrete patio?
Yes. We often build decks, pergolas, or patio covers tied into existing slabs. During your visit, we’ll look at your slab condition and how to best connect new structure to old.
How long does a typical deck project take?
Smaller projects can be completed in about a week once we start; larger multi-level decks, pergolas, or patio covers can take a bit longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeline in your proposal so you know what to expect.
Can you just repair my existing deck?
Yes. We handle everything from a few soft boards or loose rails to full structural restorations. If a simple repair isn’t the best long-term value, we’ll show you the numbers for resurfacing or rebuilding so you can decide.
