Your new deck becomes the heart of your outdoor entertainment. Morning coffee overlooking the water. Summer barbecues that your neighbors will talk about for months. A quiet retreat after long commutes to the city.
No more wondering if your deck can handle another harsh winter. No more avoiding that wobbly section near the stairs. No more canceling gatherings because your outdoor space isn’t ready for guests.
Instead, you get a professionally built deck that handles everything East Moriches weather throws at it. Materials chosen specifically for our coastal conditions. Construction techniques that ensure your investment lasts decades, not just seasons.
We understand what it takes to build lasting outdoor spaces in East Moriches. We’ve watched too many decks fail because contractors didn’t account for our unique coastal conditions.
Salt air, humid summers, and harsh winters demand more than standard construction techniques. That’s why we use proper flashing systems, marine-grade fasteners, and materials specifically chosen for Long Island’s climate.
Our team knows the local permit process inside and out. We handle Suffolk County approvals so you don’t have to navigate the bureaucracy. From initial design to final inspection, we manage every detail of your project.
We start with a site consultation at your property. We measure your space, discuss your vision, and identify any unique challenges your location presents. This isn’t a rushed estimate – we take time to understand exactly what you want.
Next comes design and permitting. We create detailed plans that match your lifestyle and handle all Suffolk County permit requirements. No surprises, no delays, no bureaucratic headaches on your end.
Construction begins with proper foundation work. We use lag bolts, not nails, for ledger board attachment. Proper flashing prevents water damage to your home. Every connection meets or exceeds building codes because your safety matters more than cutting corners.
Final inspection ensures everything meets our standards and yours. We clean up thoroughly and walk you through maintenance recommendations to keep your deck looking great for years to come.

Pressure-treated lumber offers classic appeal at an affordable price point. It’s perfect for homeowners who enjoy the natural wood look and don’t mind periodic staining and sealing. We use premium grades that resist warping and splitting.
Composite decking eliminates maintenance headaches while providing consistent appearance year after year. It won’t rot, splinter, or fade like traditional wood. Perfect for busy East Moriches families who want more time enjoying their deck and less time maintaining it.
PVC decking offers the ultimate in durability and low maintenance. It handles our coastal humidity without issue and comes in colors that complement East Moriches’ architectural styles. Initial investment pays off through decades of worry-free enjoyment.
We help you choose based on your budget, maintenance preferences, and aesthetic goals. Every material we install is specifically rated for Long Island’s climate conditions. No shortcuts, no compromises on quality.
Composite and PVC decking perform exceptionally well in our coastal environment. These materials resist salt air corrosion, won’t rot from humidity, and handle temperature swings without warping or cracking.
Pressure-treated lumber can also work well when properly maintained with regular staining and sealing. The key is using marine-grade fasteners and proper flashing systems regardless of material choice.
We evaluate your specific location’s exposure to salt air, sun, and moisture to recommend the best option for your situation and budget.
Most standard deck installations take 5-10 business days from start to finish. This includes foundation work, framing, decking installation, and railing completion.
Weather can affect timelines, especially during Long Island’s winter months. We schedule projects to minimize weather delays and communicate any necessary adjustments immediately.
Permit approval adds 2-4 weeks to the overall timeline, but we handle all paperwork and inspections. Complex designs or challenging site conditions may extend construction time, which we discuss during initial consultation.

Premium materials like exotic hardwoods or high-end composites increase costs but provide superior longevity and aesthetics. We provide detailed estimates that break down material and labor costs clearly.
Factors affecting price include site accessibility, foundation requirements, railing complexity, and permit fees. We discuss all costs upfront so you can make informed decisions about your investment.
Composite and PVC decks require minimal maintenance – just occasional cleaning with soap and water. Remove debris regularly to prevent staining and ensure proper drainage.
Wood decks need annual inspection and staining every 2-3 years depending on exposure. Check for loose fasteners, damaged boards, and proper flashing function. Address issues promptly to prevent expensive repairs.
Salt air can accelerate corrosion of metal components. We use marine-grade fasteners and hardware specifically chosen for coastal conditions. Regular rinsing during winter months helps remove salt buildup.
We handle both new construction and comprehensive deck repairs. Common issues include loose railings, rotting boards, foundation problems, and improper flashing that allows water damage.
Sometimes repairs make economic sense, especially for newer decks with isolated problems. Other times, complete replacement provides better long-term value and safety. We assess each situation honestly and recommend the most cost-effective solution.
Our repair services include structural reinforcement, board replacement, railing updates, and weatherproofing improvements. Every repair meets current building codes regardless of when the original deck was built.
