New Deck Construction in Richmond, VA
A new deck starts with more than a choice of boards. The layout, the connection to the house and the structure underneath all need attention before the surface goes down. DeckCraft has built and restored decks across Greater Richmond with one crew since 2017. We offer free on-site estimates for homeowners considering a new pressure-treated or composite deck, with permits handled as part of the work.

What’s included
Structure before the surface
Our new construction work includes concrete footings below the frost line and a flashed ledger connection. Those details belong in the conversation at the estimate, not as an afterthought once a design is selected. We use Simpson Strong-Tie hardware and discuss the framing alongside the deck layout so you understand what supports the finished space.
A material choice you can compare
Pressure-treated wood and composite decking are both options. Our composite materials include Trex, TimberTech and Fiberon. Bring your ideas about the look of the deck and how you want to use it; we can compare those choices on site. Ground-level platforms, multi-level layouts and wrap-around decks are among the construction options already offered by DeckCraft.
From estimate to walkthrough
How the process works
Walk the site together
Request an estimate and tell us where the deck will sit, how you expect to reach the yard and whether stairs or railings are part of the plan. Estimates are scheduled within 48 hours. The on-site visit lets us discuss the layout and materials in the context of your actual home rather than quote from a photograph alone.
Plan, permit and build
We handle the city or county permit for new builds and meet the inspector on site. One crew follows the project from the initial work through the final walkthrough. The estimate is the place to settle the scope, including decking, stairs and railings, before construction begins. Call (804) 399-9722 to arrange a free visit.
Questions about new deck construction
Who handles the permit for a new deck?
DeckCraft handles the city or county permit for new construction and meets the inspector on site. Discuss the proposed layout during your free estimate so the construction scope and permit work can be considered together.
Can I choose composite instead of pressure-treated wood?
Yes. We offer pressure-treated decking and composite options including Trex, TimberTech and Fiberon. The estimate gives you an opportunity to compare materials for the deck you are planning, rather than choose from a generic description.
What should I discuss about the deck foundations?
Ask about the footings, framing and house connection as well as the visible boards. Our new deck scope includes footings below the frost line, flashed ledgers and Simpson Strong-Tie hardware. These are part of planning the build from the ground up.
