Can you explain the process of designing / building a custom deck?

Designing and having a custom deck built with Marksman Contracting is a collaborative and detailed process that ensures your new deck perfectly matches your lifestyle, aesthetic preferences, and the architectural style of your home. Here's an overview of the process:

  • Consultation
    The process begins with a consultation to understand your vision, preferences, and how you plan to use the deck. This includes discussing materials, design elements, and any special features like built-in seating or lighting.

  • Site Evaluation
    A site evaluation is conducted to assess the terrain, existing structures, and any specific challenges or opportunities your property presents. This step ensures the design fits well within your landscape.

  • Design Phase
    Based on the initial consultation and site evaluation, a preliminary design is created. This may involve sketches or digital renderings to help you visualize the project. Feedback is encouraged, and the design is refined until it meets your satisfaction.

  • Material Selection
    You'll choose materials for your deck, with guidance from Marksman Contracting on the pros and cons of different options, including wood, composite materials, and railings, to suit your budget and maintenance preferences.

  • Construction Planning
    Once the design is finalized and materials selected, a detailed construction plan is developed, including timelines and any necessary permits.

  • Construction
    The construction phase begins, with Marksman Contracting managing every detail, ensuring the project progresses smoothly and according to plan.

  • Final Walkthrough
    Upon completion, a final walkthrough is conducted to ensure every aspect of the deck meets your expectations and Marksman Contracting's quality standards.

Throughout this process, communication is key. Marksman Contracting works closely with you at every step to ensure the final deck is a perfect addition to your home.
