Why GODECKS

The part you don't see is the part that lasts

Anyone can screw down a nice-looking board. A deck fails at the ledger, the flashing, the footings, and the fasteners — so that is where we spend the extra hour.

  • Properly flashed ledger board, lag-bolted to structure — never nailed to siding
  • Footings dug below the local frost line and inspected before pour
  • Joist tape on every framing member so water can't sit on your structure
  • Hidden fasteners and stainless hardware rated for treated lumber
  • Permits pulled and inspections scheduled by us, not by you
  • 5-year workmanship warranty on top of the manufacturer's material warranty

Common questions

Before you call

If your question isn't here, ask us on the estimate visit — there's no such thing as a dumb deck question.

How much does a new deck cost in Northern Virginia?

Price follows size, height off the ground, material, and railing. Pressure-treated builds start lowest; composite with an aluminum or cable railing sits higher. We give you a written, itemized number after we measure — not a range over the phone.

How long does a deck take to build?

Most residential decks are a one- to two-week build once materials land. Permits and inspections usually add one to three weeks before that, depending on your municipality.

Do you handle permits and inspections?

Yes. We draw the plans, submit them, pay the fee, and meet the inspector. You don't visit the building department.

Composite or wood — which should I pick?

Composite costs more up front and gives you back your weekends: no staining, no sealing, and a long manufacturer warranty. Cedar and treated lumber cost less and look warmer but need refinishing every two to three years. We'll show you samples of both.

Can you repair or rebuild the deck I already have?

Often, yes. If the framing and footings are sound, we can replace decking, railing, and stairs for far less than a full rebuild. If they aren't, we'll tell you that too.

Are you licensed and insured?

Fully licensed, and carrying general liability and workers' compensation coverage. Certificates available on request.
