Things to Consider for Your Deck Building or Fence Installation Project

It's always a good idea to do some preliminary research and have a basic idea of what you want before you hire a deck builder or fencer installer.

Purpose	Is it to improve security and privacy in your backyard or is it simply to make it a more enjoyable space? Are you looking for a deck to create a space to host gatherings or set up a cozy spot for the family?
Budget	Browse The Home Depot online and shop for estimates to set your expectations early on. Your budget can depend on the deck foundation and accents you end up choosing.
Material and Cost	Material and cost go hand-in-hand. If you're working with a bigger budget, you can opt for cedar wood for rustic appeal, but for a smaller budget, you might want to stick to pressure-treated wood.
Design and Layout	Composite products are available in a range of colours, while natural wood decks and fences may give you the classic look you want. You can also explore different deck or fence layouts to suit your home.
Additional Features	Consider the design features for your fencing, the type of gate, the type of railings you want for your deck, or any other add-ons such as built-in pergolas, benches and tables.

Choosing the Right Material for Your Deck & Fence Projects

There are a range of material options available for your deck building & fence installation project, each with its own qualities. You can ask your deck builder or fence installer about any materials you're curious about, or they can recommend the right materials for your project.

Material Type	Things to Consider
Pressure-treated wood	The most affordable option; treated to resist rot and termites; good durability with a regular care and maintenance
Cedar	A highly durable natural wood material for a slightly higher price than pressure-treated
Composite	Composed of wood and plastic material, available in a full range of colour options. Durable, with a range of products at various price points

Material Type	Things to Consider
Chain-Link	Affordable and easy to install, but offers less privacy and may be less durable than other options
Pressure-Treated Wood	Affordable, high-privacy option; excellent durability with regular care and maintenance
Cedar	A highly durable, high-privacy, natural wood material for a slightly higher price than pressure-treated
Metal Fencing (Usually Iron or Aluminum)	Strong, long-lasting, secure and aesthetically pleasing; however, offers less privacy and may be more expensive than other options

Questions to Ask Your Deck Builder or Fence Installer Before They Start

When hiring a deck builder or fencing contractor, it's important to communicate your expectations, as well as to be clear on what is or isn't included with their services. Make sure that everyone is on the same page by asking the following questions.

Do I need to secure my own permits and locate pipes and utility lines?

Deck building and fence installation often requires a building permit. As well, pipes and other utility lines must be located prior to digging.
Some deck and fence contractors prefer to secure all permits and utility locates themselves; others will ask you to do it. Ensure that you or your Pro have made these arrangements before your project begins

What kinds of deck and/or fence work do you do?

It's important to determine whether the Local Pro does both deck and fence installation and repair, as well as what sorts of projects they will cover. Some Pros may specialize in either decks or fences, while others may do replacement and construction but not repairs.

Will you repair or replace my existing deck or fence?

Most deck builders and fence installers will begin their work by assessing the condition of your existing deck and/or fence.
They can then determine whether some components of your existing deck and/or fence can be kept and whether simple repair, partial replacement or full replacement is necessary

Will you help me choose a design and material?

Most deck builders and fence installers will help create a design for your new deck and present it for your approval before starting the job
You will also be presented with a range of materials to choose from, from pressure-treated wood, cedar, composite and metal options for your deck, fence and/or railings

We Can Help You Install the Right Deck and/or Fence

Before deciding on a Local Pro, you should have an idea of the design and materials that you want to use for your deck and/or fence. If you have additional questions or want advice, you can ask a Local Pro or discuss with a Home Depot Associate on the phone during your consultation.
