Professional Hickory Deck Contractors

At Carolina Construction & Dumpsters LLC, we are hard-working deck contractors that excel in crafting custom decks designed to match your exact preferences. Whether you prefer sleek, simple lines or intricate patterns, we can offer a wide range of options to fit your style. We understand that the choice of wood is crucial in ensuring both the desired appearance and long-term durability of your deck.

For budget-conscious clients, we recommend treated pine or cedar. These materials are not only durable but also naturally resistant to decay, making them perfect for cost-effective projects. Their classic look can be enhanced with staining or painting to meet your aesthetic goals.

If you are considering going a bit more high-end, and want to minimize the amount of maintenance required, we would suggest considering composite as an option. Trex or Fiberon are good choices but keep in mind that their composite material really can get hot in the summer. If that is of concern to you, TimberTech Advanced PVC decking is specifically engineered to be cooler to the touch, even in direct sunlight. Here in Hickory, we do deal with A LOT of sunshine and heat. The latter option would definitely help to address that but, it does come with a substantially higher cost. Feel free to reach out to us with any questions you might have.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the average cost to build a 16′ x 30′ custom deck?

The cost to build a 16′ x 30′ custom deck can vary significantly based on factors such as the type of material used, labor rates, deck design complexity, and location. As an example, if you were to go with pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine, a deck could range in price from $7,000-$10,000. Composite could be 30-50% higher, or more, depending on the manufacturer we decide to go with.

Is a permit required to build a new deck?

Yes, in most cases, a permit is required to build a new deck. Permit requirements can vary based on location and the specifics of the deck project. Generally, a permit is necessary if the deck is attached to the house, exceeds a certain height (often 30 inches above grade), covers a large area, includes special features like roofs, electrical wiring, or plumbing, or affects the structural integrity of the property or nearby buildings.

To determine the specific requirements for your area, it is necessary to check with your local building department, review local building codes, and consult with a professional deck contractor like Carolina Construction & Dumpsters LLC.

What is the most cost-effective way to build a new deck?

Building a new deck cost-effectively involves several strategic steps. Choosing affordable materials, such as pressure-treated lumber, can significantly reduce costs compared to more expensive options like cedar, redwood, or exotic hardwoods. Simplifying the design also helps, as a straightforward, rectangular deck is more economical than one with multiple levels, curves, or intricate features.

You can always take on the work yourself, if you have the tools and skills, to save on labor costs. It is important to remember that you have to adhere to local building codes and safety standards. Careful planning and budgeting are essential to avoid unexpected expenses, ensuring you stick to your initial plan without making costly last-minute changes.

If your deck project is of any significant size or scope, it is always best to consider outsourcing and hiring a professional deck builder with the experience and required licenses and insurance.
