What it costs

Honest pricing guidance

Both are usually priced by the square or linear foot, plus materials. As rough guidance: a new deck often runs $40–$90/sq ft depending on materials and height, board-and-post fencing $35–$75/linear ft, and deer fencing less per foot but taller. Cedar, railings, and sloped or rocky sites all move the number.

These are ballpark figures to help you plan — not a guaranteed quote. You'll get a firm number, free, before any work begins.

FAQ

Questions, answered plainly

How tall does deer fencing need to be here? +

Deer clear surprisingly low fences, so effective deer fencing is usually 7–8 feet. We can fence a whole yard or just a garden area, with gates sized for how you use the space.

Cedar or composite for a deck on the coast? +

Cedar looks classic and is local but needs upkeep in our wet climate; composite costs more upfront and resists rot and moss with little maintenance; pressure-treated is the budget structural option. The right pick depends on budget and how much upkeep you want.

My deck is old and a bit soft — repair or rebuild? +

If the posts, beams, and joists are sound, re-decking the surface and railings is often enough. Widespread rot, movement, or failed footings usually point to a rebuild. We'll assess the structure and tell you straight.

Do decks and fences need permits on Salt Spring? +

Fences usually don't, but decks often do once they're above a certain height or attached to the house. A good builder handles the permit and inspection side so it's not on you.

Can you build on a rocky or sloped lot? +

Yes — island lots are rarely flat. Sloped and rocky sites need proper footings and sometimes engineered posts, which we plan for in the quote.

Do you offer free quotes? +

Yes — free, no-obligation quotes.
