Decks
Decks built by Greg
A deck is where summer happens around here, and with this much rain, you want those dry months spent on a deck that is solid, safe and easy to keep up. Maybe the old one is going soft at the edges, the stairs bounce, or there is simply no good way to get from the kitchen to the yard. Whatever the reason, a new deck has to be framed right, flashed where it meets the house and built from materials that can take wet winter after wet winter.
Greg Myers builds wood and composite decks. His photos include a lake-view wood deck, a covered balcony on timber posts, composite decks with built-in planter boxes and benches, and wood deck stairs with railings. Greg handles the design, permit, footings, framing, decking, stairs, railings and cleanup, and he can add a roof over the deck when you want to use it in the rain too. You get one contractor, and a deck built with the same care he would give his own home.

How it works
How a deck job works
- 1
Free on-site estimate
Greg checks the yard, the view and the grade, sees where the deck will attach, and asks how you'll use it.
- 2
Design and permit
We settle size, shape, materials, stairs and railings, then get the deck permit where one is required.
- 3
Footings and frame
The old deck comes off if there is one, footings are poured and the frame goes up level and solid.
- 4
Decking, rails and cleanup
Decking, stairs, railings and any built-ins go on, and the yard is cleaned up before the final walkthrough.

Questions
Decks FAQs
Wood or composite: which holds up better in Western Washington?
Both can work well. Composite resists rot and doesn't need staining, though it can get slick with moss in shady spots if it isn't cleaned. Wood costs less up front and looks natural but needs regular sealing to handle our wet winters. Either way, the framing underneath is treated wood, so we space and flash it so it can dry out between storms.
How much does a new deck cost?
Size, height off the ground, decking material, railing style, stairs and any built-ins drive most of the price. A ground-level deck on a flat yard costs less than a second-story deck with a long run of stairs. Greg gives a free estimate on site and can price wood and composite side by side.
Can you repair my deck, or does it need replacing?
It depends on the framing. If the joists, beams and posts are sound, we can often replace just the boards, stairs or railings. If there is rot in the structure or where the deck attaches to the house, replacement is usually the safer call, and Greg will tell you which during the estimate.
Do I need a permit to build a deck?
Often, yes, especially for decks attached to the house or raised well off the ground. Rules vary by county and city, so Greg checks what applies at your address and takes care of the permit paperwork.
Can you put a roof over my deck?
Yes. A covered deck lets you use it through the rainy months. We frame the roof on posts with their own footings, tie it into the house or keep it freestanding, and match the roofing to your home. The covered balcony on timber posts in Greg's photos is one example.
