Frequently Asked Questions About
Our Deck Building Services
How long does it take to build a custom deck?
The timeline for a custom deck depends on the size and complexity of the design, the materials selected, site conditions, permitting requirements, and any preparation needed before construction begins. A straightforward deck may require less time than a larger project with multiple levels, stairs, railings, or other custom features.
Grimes Construction reviews the scope of the project before work begins and keeps homeowners informed throughout the design, permitting, and construction process.
What Decking Materials Do You Work With?
Grimes Construction works with several decking materials, including pressure-treated wood, composite decking, cedar, and mahogany. Each option has different considerations for appearance, maintenance, durability, and budget.
We can help homeowners compare the available materials and choose an option that fits the style of the home, how the deck will be used, and the amount of ongoing maintenance they are comfortable with.
Do I Need a Permit to Build a Deck?
Permit requirements can vary depending on the municipality, size of the deck, height, structural design, and scope of the project. Many new deck builds and significant alterations require local approvals before construction can begin.
Grimes Construction can help homeowners understand the permitting requirements that apply to their project and coordinate the necessary steps as part of the planning process.
Can I Customize the Design of My Deck?
Yes. Custom deck design allows the size, shape, materials, stairs, railings, and layout to be planned around the home and the way the outdoor space will be used.
The design may also take into account seating areas, access from the home, traffic flow, views, entertaining space, and how the deck connects with the surrounding yard. Grimes Construction works with homeowners to create a deck that complements the property while providing practical outdoor living space.
Can You Replace or Expand an Existing Deck?
Depending on the condition and structure of the existing deck, Grimes Construction can help homeowners replace an outdated deck or explore options for creating a larger and more functional outdoor living space.
A deck replacement may involve removing the existing structure and building a new deck, while an expansion may provide additional room for seating, dining, or entertaining. The existing structure and site conditions should be evaluated first to determine the most appropriate approach.
Can I See Examples of Decks Grimes Construction Has Built?
Yes. Grimes Construction has completed custom deck projects for homeowners throughout Delaware County and surrounding communities. Our completed projects show examples of different deck layouts, materials, railings, stairs, and outdoor living configurations.
