Pressure-treated wood is the most common and cost-effective decking material, making it a practical choice for many homeowners. Treated to resist insects, moisture, and rot, it provides dependable performance when properly maintained. With its natural look and versatility, pressure-treated decking offers a solid foundation for creating an outdoor space that fits your style and budget.

Serving homeowners in Maryland, Delaware, and Virginia, we help you select the right wood materials and build a deck that fits your home’s style, your property’s layout, and your lifestyle.
Types of Wood Decking We Install
We install several types of wood decking, each with its own strengths. During your onsite deck estimate with one of our Project Consultants, we’ll help you choose the one that fits your needs.
Pressure-Treated Pine
Ipe and Other Quality Hardwood Options
Depending on your goals and budget, we also work with hardwood decking varieties that offer increased density and longevity.
Ipe (pronounced “e-pay”, also known as Brazilian Walnut), is the most sought after tropical hardwood decking in the United States today. Ipe has rich dark colors, so it not only lasts a long time but has the beauty of a fine interior wood. If Ipe is allowed to age, it will turn to a silver/gray patina over time.
