Deck Building Questions Answered for Silver Spring Homeowners
If you’re thinking about building a new deck or fixing the one you already have, you probably have questions. We get calls every day from homeowners in Montgomery County, Prince George’s County, and Howard County asking about costs, materials, permits, and timelines. Here’s what you need to know.
What Does Custom Deck Building Cost in Silver Spring?
Most deck projects in the 20906 area range from $8,000 to $25,000 depending on size, materials, and features. Composite deck installation costs more upfront than wood deck installation, but you save money over time with less maintenance. We provide clear pricing after a site visit because every yard in Silver Spring is different.
How Long Does Deck Repair Take?
Simple deck repair projects like replacing a few boards or fixing railings usually take one to two days. Deck framing and structural repair takes longer, especially if we discover hidden rot during inspection. In Frederick County and Carroll County, weather can delay outdoor projects, so we build buffer time into every schedule.
Do I Need a Permit for Deck Replacement?
Yes, most deck replacement and new construction projects in Montgomery County require permits. We handle all paperwork and inspections to ensure your deck meets Maryland building codes. Prince William County and Fairfax County have similar requirements.
What’s Better: Wood or Composite?
Wood decks cost less initially and give you that classic look. Composite decks need minimal deck staining and sealing and resist rot better in our humid Maryland climate. Homeowners in Anne Arundel County and Baltimore County often choose composite for durability.
Can You Match My Existing Deck Style?
Absolutely. Whether you need deck railing installation and repair or deck stair installation and repair, we match materials, colors, and styles. Deck resurfacing is a great option if your frame is solid but your boards look worn.
