Deck Construction
M&B Unlimited Construction, LLC.M&B Unlimited Construction provides wood and composite deck design and construction services for residential and commercial properties. Our services involve a range of tasks to create a functional and aesthetically pleasing outdoor living space. Here’s a breakdown of the deck design and build services we offer:
Wood Deck Construction Services
- Material Selection: We construct decks from various types of wood such as pressure-treated lumber, cedar, redwood, or tropical hardwoods (like teak or ipe).
-
Design & Planning: We work with clients to design a deck that meets their needs and fits their space, including layout, dimensions, railing designs, and stairs.
-
Site Preparation: The area is cleared, leveled, and prepped for the deck foundation. This might involve excavation and laying a gravel base or concrete footings.
-
Deck Installation: The wood decking material is installed on a sturdy frame, which includes joists, beams, and posts to support the structure.
-
Finishing Touches: The deck is stained, painted, or sealed to protect it from weather damage and improve its appearance. Railings, stairs, and any additional features (such as built-in benches or lighting) are added.
-
Maintenance & Repairs: Wood decks often require periodic maintenance, such as resealing, sanding, or repairing sections that have become weathered or damaged.
Composite / PVC Deck Construction Services:
At M&B, we exclusively employ premium materials to ensure exceptional quality. A solid foundation is vital, which is why we construct on nothing but the finest. From oversized 12″ concrete footings or innovative certified Heli-pile footings, these decks built on 6×6 posts will withstand the test of time. Our pressure-treated lumber is sourced from local lumber yards.
We apply a joist butyl tape or FastenMaster deck coating to all floor joists to protect against moisture that can lead to wood rot and decay. With professional installation, we always apply a hidden fastener Hideaway system with a picture frame board to create a seamless design. From low-voltage lighting to sleek, maintenance-free railing systems, these decks will be the centerpiece for events to come.
-
Material Selection: Composite decks are made from a blend of wood fibers and plastic, offering the look and feel of wood with greater durability. Popular brands we use include Trex, TimberTech, and Fiberon.
-
Design & Planning: Similar to wood decks, composite decks are customized to the client’s preferences, including the layout, color options, and any unique features.
-
Site Preparation: The ground is prepped, ensuring proper drainage and stability for the composite deck foundation.
-
Deck Installation: Composite decking materials are fastened onto a framing structure, typically made from wood or metal, using hidden fasteners or screws. These decks are known for being low-maintenance, as they don’t need painting or staining.
-
Finishing Touches: Composite decks are often equipped with custom railings, lighting, and other accessories that complement the deck’s aesthetic.
-
Maintenance: Composite decks require less upkeep than wood decks, as they don’t need staining or sealing. However, regular cleaning is necessary to keep them looking their best.
