Do you build composite (Trex) decks in Hazel Dell?
Yes — composite is a great fit for Hazel Dell's wet winters because it resists rot, mold and warping and needs almost no maintenance. It's one of our most-requested builds in just north of Vancouver.

Yes. We handle rot, loose boards, wobbly railings and structural repairs throughout Hazel Dell. Send photos through the form and we'll respond the same day.
Do you replace old decks in Hazel Dell?
Yes — full tear-out and rebuild in composite or wood, built to current code, permits handled through the Clark County (unincorporated). It's a common project on established residential lots here.
Can you build a covered deck or patio cover in Hazel Dell?
Yes. Covered decks and patio covers are popular in Hazel Dell because they make outdoor space usable through our rainy season. We handle the permit for roofed structures.
What kinds of decks are most common in Hazel Dell?
In Hazel Dell we most often build rot repair and composite rebuilds, thanks to the local established residential lots. Every deck is designed for your specific home and lot.
How long does a deck project take in Hazel Dell?
Most decks in Hazel Dell take one to three weeks of on-site build time once the permit is issued and materials arrive. We give you a fixed start date so you can plan.
Is composite or wood better for Hazel Dell's climate?
For just north of Vancouver's wet weather, composite and Trex resist rot, mold and warping with almost no upkeep, while wood costs less up front but needs regular sealing. We'll walk you through the trade-offs for your Hazel Dell home.
Do you handle the permit paperwork for Hazel Dell homeowners?
Yes. We prepare and pull the deck permit through the Clark County (unincorporated) and schedule inspections, so the whole process is off your plate.

Yes — we're licensed, bonded and insured in Washington and build to Clark County code on every Hazel Dell project. We're glad to provide our credentials.
Do you build multi-level or hillside decks in Hazel Dell?
Yes. Hazel Dell's established residential lots often call for elevated or multi-level designs, and we engineer the footings and framing for the grade so the deck is solid and passes inspection.
What's your warranty on decks built in Hazel Dell?
Every Hazel Dell deck comes with a written workmanship warranty for as long as you own your home — the No-Ghost Guarantee — plus manufacturer warranties on composite materials.
Do I need a permit for a small deck under 200 sq ft in Hazel Dell?
Maybe not — a deck 200 sq ft or less, under 30 inches high, not attached to the house and not at a required exit is typically exempt. But if it fails any one of those tests it needs a permit through the Clark County (unincorporated). We'll confirm which applies to your Hazel Dell project.
Why choose a local Hazel Dell-area builder over a Portland company?
We're Clark County, WA locals who know Hazel Dell permitting, code and neighborhoods like Hazel Dell Avenue corridor, Felida-adjacent areas, Minnehaha, and the Salmon Creek border. Oregon-based crews have to learn Washington rules and travel across the river — we're already here.
