What Is Our Process?

Our process begins when you decide to work with us as your custom deck contractor in Bel Air. You can ask us questions or for a free quote with no obligation. 

Once you decide to choose us as your custom deck company, we will require a deposit of one third the total project cost. Once we have received the documents, we will then acquire a permit for the new deck if necessary, call Miss Utility to mark utilities, and order your deck materials. Once all of these criteria are in place, we can schedule an installation date.

Many customers ask us if we are able to get the permit and determine property lines. The answer to both of these questions is yes!

When the installation day arrives, our skilled crew will work diligently to complete the work. A manager or owner at Freedom Fence and Deck will be on each job site to oversee the project. We are dedicated to ensuring accuracy, contract completion, and guaranteed customer happiness!

Building a Custom Deck

The Why

There are various standard backyard deck templates that one could use to create an average, serviceable outdoor living space. How do you know a custom deck is the right choice for you? A custom deck is one with a layout, features, or both that are unique to the particular project.

For example, your deck might have multiple levels to work with the steep terrain, or your deck might include a gazebo at one end and a custom privacy screen and pergola at the other. Building a custom deck allows you to maximize the outdoor living space’s efficiency and your enjoyment of it. It could be more fitting for your home than a standard design.

The What

The question now might be, “What will your custom deck be?” You probably have some ideas! Whether you have a vague wishlist or have your vision all planned out, it helps to be familiar with the top materials and features if you aren’t already.

Top Deck Materials

Wood

Wood decks have the most affordable price range and are the only natural deck-building material. The types of wood decks available are pressure-treated pine, red western cedar, and exotic hardwood like Ipe. Pressure-treated pine is infused and coated with preservative chemicals, while red western cedar is a soft wood with natural preservative oils. Ipe and other exotics are extremely dense and more difficult to install but are very resilient.

Composite

Composite is a combination of wood fibers and plastic fibers. They are usually recycled materials. This type is a low-maintenance deck material that still looks very attractive and can have the appearance of wood.

Vinyl

Vinyl decks are more resilient and low-maintenance than ever. They resist discoloring, cracking, warping, splintering, and rotting. PVC decks come in multiple neutral colors that you will not have to reapply.

Deck Railing Materials

Deck railings can be more creative when it comes to materials. To enhance strength, they can be aluminum or steel. To preserve the views, they can be made with glass panels or steel cables. You can combine wood and aluminum, vinyl and glass, and more for your custom deck needs.

Popular Deck Additions

Outdoor Shade Structures

Exposure to natural sunlight is healthy, but there comes a time when it can become too much, and we need some shade. If you prefer to have permanent shade and shelter on your deck, you can add a gazebo, screened porch, pergola, or pavilion, just to name a few.

Deck Lighting

Built-in deck lighting promotes traffic safety at night, especially on the stairs, and usability in the evenings. Deck lights can be built into the flooring, the railing, and the stairs.

Deck Tech

Complete your outdoor living spaces on deck with heating and cooling systems, a hot tub, a stereo system, planters, or anything you might like! At Freedom Fence and Deck, you have options.
