Decking in East Renton Highlands, WA
Decking for East Renton Highlands homes, from Builders Service Company.
Decks are common here. King County assessor records show 53% of single-family homes have one, and the median deck covers 290 square feet. With 91% of homes owner-occupied and many houses on rural lots, most deck projects are replacements or expansions by owners who use the space every year.
We build with three materials:
- Wood gives a natural look at a lower upfront cost, but it needs regular sealing to hold up.
- Composite decking won’t rot and doesn’t need staining.
- Vinyl decking also skips staining and is easy to clean.
For an older deck, we check the framing and footings as well as the boards, since a new surface on a tired structure won’t last. For the 3% of waterfront homes and others with a view, we can plan railing choices that keep sightlines open. Second-story homes may need an elevated deck with stairs to the yard, which we plan during the consultation.
