Miami's Premier Deck Builders for Backyards That Last.

Most decks in Miami range from $35 to $75 per square foot installed, depending on materials. A standard 300 sq ft composite deck typically runs $14,000–$22,000, while pressure-treated wood decks start lower. Pool decks and elevated waterfront decks cost more due to permitting and structural requirements.

Yes. Miami-Dade County requires a building permit for nearly all deck construction, and decks must meet the Florida Building Code's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) standards. We handle the entire permitting process for you, including engineered drawings and inspections.

Capped composite decking (like Trex or TimberTech) is the best choice for Miami because it resists moisture, mold, salt air, and fading from intense UV. For waterfront and pool-adjacent homes, composite and PVC decking dramatically outperform natural wood in longevity and maintenance.

Once permitted, most residential decks take 1–3 weeks to build. The permitting timeline in Miami-Dade adds roughly 2–4 weeks. We provide a clear project schedule during your free estimate so you know exactly what to expect.

Absolutely. Pool decks are one of our specialties. We build slip-resistant, heat-reflective composite and paver pool decks designed for Miami's sun and code-compliant pool barrier requirements throughout Miami-Dade.

A quality composite deck installed in Miami typically lasts 25–30 years and most come with 25-year fade and stain warranties. Composite holds up far better than wood against Miami's humidity, rain, and salt exposure.

For most Miami homeowners, composite is the better long-term value because it resists rot, warping, and salt damage with almost no maintenance. Natural wood costs less upfront but requires regular sealing and replacement in Miami's harsh coastal climate.
