Our Process for Deck Construction
Like any woodworking project, constructing the perfect deck depends on various factors from the type of material to use, to the design you have in mind. That’s why our construction project will start from the planning stage where our highly experienced deck builders in Manitoba will consult with you on the design you have in mind, your budget, and samples of our past projects so you can envision what the final product will look like.
After preparing the site, we build the substructure according to the local building codes and stability requirements. Then, we install the deck, ensuring there is enough gap for drainage and expansion. Railing and stairs are installed in accordance with the finalized design. After the structure is completely built, we apply final touches which include staining and sealing the deck to protect the structure from any damage from the environment and insects.
FAQs About Our Deck Construction Services in Manitoba
The size and layout of your deck will be determined by what you want to use it for, availability of space, and your budget. If there are a lot of existing structures around like trees, or landscaping features, you might have to consider a smaller deck.
Additionally, the intended use of your deck also plays an important role in the size and layout of the deck. Are you intending to use it for the occasional drink during the evening while reading a book, or do you plan on hosting dinner parties on it? How many guests do you plan to invite?Â
All of these factors will determine the design and size of your deck. Reach out to our professional deck builders for consultation and a quote so you can plan accordingly.
In most cases you will require a building permit to construct a deck. Building laws vary across provinces and municipalities. So you have to take those into consideration when planning to construct a deck.
Sometimes, you only need a permit if the deck exceeds a certain size and height. Building permits also help you keep safety considerations in mind while constructing a deck like safe access through stairs, and inclusion of handrails. Furthermore building laws also make sure that your deck adheres to your localities safety standards which includes things like fire-resistance, electrical wiring, etc.
The time it takes to make a deck depends on the size, complexity, weather and land conditions, and the time it takes for the local authorities to inspect it. A rough time frame that you should keep in mind is about 6 to 16 weeks. But as we mentioned earlier, it can vary depending on your specific situation. Contact us at Maurice & Sons for more detail on this.
Cost of a deck construction project depends on a number of things, like its size, materials used, design, location, and any additional features you might want to add. However, the average cost to build a deck is $30 to $60 per square foot. This amount typically includes the decking material, other hardware, and labor costs as well. Contact us to get an accurate estimate of the cost for the kind of deck you want.
Regular maintenance of a deck directly impacts its life. As we know, wood is more vulnerable to weather, insects, and mold. However, keeping a deck well maintained is not as complicated as people think and in the long run it is totally worth it.
A couple of important things that you need to keep in mind is to regularly clean it of any dirt, debris, and stains. Promptly treating any damage on the wood can also help prolong the life of your deck. Treating the wood with appropriate preservatives and protective coatings is also important to protect it from sun, and weather. Our experts are ready to guide you through the whole process.
The planning stage of a deck construction project is extremely important. Some major things you need to keep in mind are local building laws, the intended function of the deck, privacy, existing landscape, and weather conditions in your area. All these factors will also determine the time, budget, and materials we will need to construct your deck.
