Decks & Patios That Stand Up to the Elements
Engineered to Endure the Pacific Northwest Climate
Living in the Pacific North West means embracing our beautiful, lush environment—and its persistent rain and moisture. Choosing the right materials for your outdoor project is not just a matter of style; it's the single most important factor in ensuring your investment lasts for decades. An improperly built deck or patio can quickly fall victim to rot, mold, warping, and decay in our damp climate.
This is why we prioritize educating our clients on the long-term value and performance of different material options. While a pressure-treated wood deck may have a lower initial price tag, the true cost emerges over time. To protect it from our climate, wood requires constant, costly maintenance, including regular power washing, sanding, and re-staining or sealing every few years. Over a decade, these maintenance costs can add thousands of dollars to the initial investment, not to mention countless weekends of work.
In contrast, modern composite and PVC decking represents a smarter long-term investment. While the upfront cost is higher, the lifetime cost of ownership is significantly lower. These materials are engineered to be impervious to moisture, meaning they will not rot, warp, or splinter. They require no staining or sealing, and cleaning is as simple as a wash with soap and water. For most homeowners in the Pacific Northwest, the investment in composite decking pays for itself in just 5 to 7 years through savings on maintenance costs alone, all while providing a beautiful, worry-free surface for decades to come.
