Decking in Arlington, WA
Decking for Arlington homes, from Builders Service Company.
Snohomish County assessor records put the median lot in Arlington at 0.18 acres, so a deck here usually has to make good use of a modest backyard. We design each deck around how you plan to use it, whether that is a new build or an upgrade of the one you have, and build it to be safe and sturdy.
We build with three materials:
- Composite decking doesn’t rot and doesn’t need staining, a good fit for shaded yards and wet seasons.
- Vinyl decking is also rot-free and low-maintenance.
- Wood decking gives a natural look on a tighter budget, with regular sealing to keep it sound.
Wet weather shapes the details. We plan for drainage off the deck surface and away from the house, choose slip-resistant surfaces for steps and walkways, and keep moss-prone shady corners in mind when picking materials.
With 62% of homes owner-occupied, most decks we build are for people planning to stay and use the space for years, so durable framing and easy upkeep matter as much as the look.

Arlington decking FAQ
What decking works best on a smaller Arlington lot?
Composite or vinyl decking is usually the best fit for wet weather and shade, because neither rots or needs staining. With a median lot of 0.18 acres, most decks here have to fit a modest backyard, so we design each one to make good use of the space. Wood is the budget-friendly choice with a natural look, but it needs regular sealing.
Can you upgrade or replace my existing deck?
Yes, we build new decks and upgrade existing ones. Composite and vinyl decking resist rot and skip the staining, which helps in wet seasons, while wood offers a natural look with regular sealing. With 62% of homes owner-occupied, most owners we work with plan to use their deck for years, so we focus on safe, sturdy framing and easy upkeep.
