Custom Deck Building Services

Custom Deck Design & Construction

Every deck Precision builds starts with a custom design tailored to your home, your yard, and how you plan to use the space. We consider sun exposure, privacy, access points from the house, grade changes, and views when developing your deck plan. Whether you want a simple ground-level platform, an elevated deck with stairs, or a multi-level outdoor living area with distinct zones for dining and entertaining, we design and build it to your specifications. Popular features include built-in benches, planter boxes, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, fire pit areas, and integrated lighting. Multi-level decks work well for homes with significant grade changes, creating separate areas for cooking, relaxing, and gathering. We also build screened-in deck enclosures for homeowners who want to enjoy the outdoors without insects. We provide detailed drawings and a complete material list so you can visualize the finished product before construction begins. Changes are easy to make on paper, and we want you to be confident in the design before we start building.

Decking Materials: Wood, Composite & PVC

Choosing the right decking material is one of the most important decisions in your project. Precision installs all three major categories of decking so you can choose based on your priorities for appearance, maintenance, and budget. Pressure-treated wood is the most affordable option and delivers a classic, natural look. It requires annual staining or sealing to maintain its appearance and resist rot, but many homeowners prefer the authentic feel and warmth of real wood underfoot. Cedar and redwood are premium wood options that offer natural resistance to insects and decay. Composite decking from manufacturers like Trex, TimberTech, and Fiberon combines wood fibers with plastic polymers to create boards that resist fading, staining, scratching, and mold. Composite never needs sanding, staining, or sealing, and it maintains its appearance for 25 years or more. PVC decking (like Azek) takes low-maintenance a step further with 100% synthetic boards that are completely moisture-proof. We help you weigh the trade-offs so you make the best choice for your home.

Railings, Stairs & Finishing Details

The railing system you choose has a major impact on the look, safety, and feel of your deck. Precision installs composite railings, aluminum railings, cable railings, and glass panel systems. Composite railings match your decking for a cohesive look. Aluminum railings are sleek and available in black, white, and bronze. Cable railings minimize visual obstruction for scenic views. Glass panels offer maximum visibility with a modern, upscale appearance. Stairs connect your deck to your yard, and we build them with the same quality and attention as the deck surface. Options include open risers, closed risers, wide-tread stairs, and wrap-around designs. All railing and stair installations meet New Jersey building code requirements for height, spacing, and structural integrity. Finishing details like post caps, lighting, skirting, and fascia boards complete the look of your deck. LED post cap lights and stair riser lights add ambiance and safety for evening use. Skirting panels conceal the understructure for a polished, finished appearance from every angle.

Built for New Jersey Weather

New Jersey decks face hot, humid summers, freezing winters, heavy rain, and occasional coastal weather. These conditions demand materials and construction methods that handle temperature extremes, moisture, and UV exposure year after year. Precision builds every deck with these conditions in mind. We use pressure-treated lumber rated for ground contact on all framing. Footings are poured below the frost line to prevent heaving. Hardware is stainless steel or hot-dipped galvanized to resist corrosion. We ensure proper drainage and ventilation beneath the deck to prevent moisture buildup that can damage framing over time. Regardless of whether you choose wood, composite, or PVC for the decking surface, the structural foundation underneath is built to the same exacting standard. A deck is only as good as what supports it, and Precision never cuts corners where it counts.
