There's a reason wood decks remain a favorite. Natural wood feels good underfoot, looks at home in almost any backyard, and can be stained any color you like. It's also typically the most budget-friendly way to add outdoor living space.

Pressure-treated lumber is the most common choice, treated to resist rot and insects and well suited to framing and decking alike. Cedar offers natural beauty, lighter weight and good natural resistance to decay. Some homeowners choose dense tropical hardwoods for their durability and rich color.

Every wood deck needs some care to stay its best. With regular cleaning and a fresh coat of stain or sealer every few years, a well-built wood deck can serve your family for a long time.

Wood decking options

Each wood type balances cost, appearance and maintenance differently.

Pressure-treated pine

The most economical option; durable once dried and sealed, and accepts stain well.

Cedar

Naturally attractive and aromatic, lighter weight, with natural resistance to decay.

Tropical hardwoods

Very dense and long-lasting with rich color; harder to work and higher in cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

When can I stain a new pressure-treated deck?

Pressure-treated lumber often needs time to dry before it will absorb stain properly. A simple test is to sprinkle water on it; if it soaks in, it's ready. We'll advise on timing.

How long does a wood deck last?

It depends on the wood, climate, sun exposure and maintenance. Regular cleaning and sealing make a significant difference in lifespan.

Is cedar better than pressure-treated wood?

Cedar is more attractive and stable with natural decay resistance, but it costs more and is softer. Pressure-treated wood is very durable and economical.

Can you use composite boards on a wood frame?

Yes. Most composite decks are built on pressure-treated wood framing. Some homeowners combine wood framing, composite decking and composite or aluminum railings.

Do you refinish existing wood decks?

Our focus is building and rebuilding decks. If your deck needs major repairs or replacement boards, we can assess it and recommend options.
