Our Deck Construction Process

At Petra Decks, every project follows a defined process. We focus on evaluation, clear scope, and disciplined construction so the deck performs long after the build is finished.

Initial Consultation & Site Evaluation

We start with an on-site evaluation. This is where we determine whether your project involves new construction, full replacement, or renovation.

We review existing conditions, structure, elevations, drainage, access, and your goals. This step prevents scope surprises later and sets realistic expectations from the start.

This phase often clarifies whether Deck Renovation & Remodeling is appropriate instead of a full rebuild.

Scope Definition & Design Direction

Once direction is clear, we define scope. Layout, size, structure, materials, and key features are aligned before pricing begins.

Design decisions are made with framing, load paths, and long-term performance in mind. If something creates future problems, we address it early.

This is the foundation for Deck Construction & Replacement projects.

Proposal & Clear Next Steps

You receive a clear proposal that reflects the agreed scope. What’s included, what’s excluded, and how the work will proceed are all defined before construction.

Questions are resolved now, not mid-build.

Construction & Communication

Our crew follows the approved plan with a focus on structure first. Changes are discussed before execution, and communication stays consistent throughout the build.

The jobsite is kept organized and respectful of your home.

Final Review & Project Completion

We walk the finished project with you to confirm structure, details, and transitions match the agreed scope.

The result is a deck built for long-term use, not short-term appearance

What This Process Solves

This process prevents unclear scope, rushed decisions, and structural shortcuts. It ensures your deck is planned and built with intention from day one.
