Luxury Custom Deck Design & Build for NYC Homes

Types of Decks We Build
Trex Composite & Ipe Decking
Our deck installations feature premium composite materials from Trex, TimberTech, and Fiberon, along with high-end Ipe hardwood decking. Composite options offer low maintenance and resist fading, rot, and mold, while Ipe provides a naturally beautiful, dense hardwood known for exceptional durability and longevity. Together, these materials are ideal for NYC homeowners seeking long-lasting performance, elegant aesthetics, and minimal upkeep.
Rooftop & Terrace Decks
Transform your unused rooftop into valuable outdoor living space. We specialize in rooftop deck construction that maximizes views while ensuring proper waterproofing and structural support. Our designs comply with NYC rooftop regulations and weight requirements.
Backyard & Garden Decks
Create an outdoor oasis with a custom backyard deck designed for entertaining and relaxation. We work with various materials including pressure-treated lumber, cedar, and exotic hardwoods like Ipe to match your aesthetic and budget.
Balcony & Small Space Decks
Limited space doesn't mean limited possibilities. Our balcony deck solutions maximize every square foot with smart design and space-saving features. Ideal for Brooklyn brownstones and Manhattan apartments with small outdoor areas.

NYC construction logistics significantly impact cost, including:
Sidewalk shed or permit requirements, Crane permits for rooftop deck installations, Parking and staging restrictions, Portalet requirements, “Carry-through” labor in narrow brownstones
