A newly built cedar deck with steps and railings in a Winnipeg backyard

A good deck adds a room to your house for four months of the year. A bad one is a trip hazard with a view. We build new wood decks, replace decks that have rotted or heaved, and repair boards, stairs and railings on decks that are otherwise sound.

From a simple ground level platform off the patio door to a two level deck with stairs and railings, we frame it properly, fasten it properly and finish it clean. You get a clear plan and a clear price before anything is built.

New decks

  • Ground level and raised wood decks
  • Stairs, landings and railings
  • Pressure treated framing, treated or cedar decking
  • Old deck removed and hauled away

Repairs and rebuilds

  • Rotten boards and joists replaced
  • Heaved or sinking supports corrected
  • Loose railings and stairs made safe
  • Staining and sealing to protect the wood

Building a deck that survives Winnipeg

Our clay soil moves. It swells when wet and shrinks when dry, and frost pushes on anything sitting in it. Deck supports have to go below frost or sit on footings designed for that movement, or the deck ends up with a slope and a gap at the house within a few years. We frame with treated lumber, use hardware rated for it, and leave the right gaps so the boards can move without cupping.

Some decks need a permit depending on height and size. We tell you up front whether yours does and what that involves, so there are no surprises later.

Deck building and repair: questions we get asked

Do I need a permit for a deck in Winnipeg?
It depends mainly on how high the deck is off the ground and how big it is. We will tell you at the quote stage whether your deck needs one and what the process looks like.
Can you repair my existing deck instead of replacing it?
Often, yes. If the framing is sound and only the surface boards or a railing have gone, a repair is the right answer and we will recommend it.
Treated wood or cedar for the deck boards?
Treated is durable and economical; cedar looks warmer and costs more. Either way, staining it in the first year makes a big difference to how it ages.
Do you stain and seal decks?
Yes, on new builds and on existing decks that need protecting. See our painting and staining service.
