How long does a typical deck build take?

Most residential decksbased in Cinnaminson Township and Greater Philly areas take one to two weeks depending on size, layout complexity, and weather conditions. Larger or multi-level decks may take longer.

What is the difference between wood and composite deck systems?

When should I start planning a deck build?
Spring and fall are the most popular seasons in Cinnaminson Township, so starting the conversation a few months ahead gives you more flexibility with scheduling. Winter builds are possible but depend on ground conditions and temperature.
