Deck Installation

We manage full composite decking installation for both residential and commercial properties. Our team handles permitting, site preparation, structural framing, and surface installation to deliver a finished deck that meets local codes in Wilmington, NC.

Deck Repair

Older decking that has seen wear, frame issues, or damage needs proper repair to stay safe and functional. We provide inspections, board replacement, frame repairs, resurfacing, additions, and full remodeling to bring the structure back to good condition.

Deck Footing and Framing

Every deck needs a solid base to perform well over time. We install traditional concrete footings and driven pilings, paired with pressure-treated and KDAT lumber framing, to build a foundation that supports the structure for the long run.

Custom Deck Design

We plan layouts around your property and how you want to use the outdoor space. Platform, raised, multi-level, pool and spa, covered, screened porch, rooftop, cantilevered, and freestanding designs are all available, with 3D CAD modeling so the plan is clear before construction starts.

Additional Deck Features

A well-rounded project includes the details that make it fully functional. We install skirting in styles from lattice to composite panels, Trex Rain Escape underdeck systems, railing, lighting, stairs, privacy screens, and wheelchair ramps as part of any scope.

Why Composite Decking Is Worth the Investment

Low Maintenance Demands

It does not require sealing, staining, or sanding, which keeps ongoing upkeep simple and manageable.

Weather and Moisture Resistance

Quality boards hold up well against humidity, rain, and UV exposure without warping or rotting.

Consistent, Long-Lasting Appearance

The surface retains its color and finish far longer than untreated wood alternatives ever would.

Works for Any Property Type

Professional installation can be applied to residential and commercial projects of any scale or layout.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of composite decking over traditional wood?

Can composite decking installation include custom railings and stairs?

Yes. Installation can include custom railing systems, built-in stairs, privacy screens, lighting, and skirting. These elements are worked into the design phase and treated as part of the full project scope.

What maintenance is required for composite decking?

Routine inspections to check fasteners and framing, along with occasional surface cleaning, are generally all that is needed to keep the deck in good shape over time.

Are composite decking services suitable for residential and commercial projects?

Yes. The material handles high-traffic use effectively, which makes it a reliable option for commercial properties as well as private homes across Wilmington, NC.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From start to finish, everyone we worked with at DPTU was phenomenal! Christine opened up the communication by responding to our web inquiry, then Bryan coordinated with us to visit the property and look at our current deck and what we were hoping to achieve by going composite instead of pressure treated. He provided concise information that answered all of our questions before landing on a project plan. Communication was always consistent, and Mark and Jeff even made site visits to ensure everything was done accordingly. I will recommend DPTU to anyone who has similar needs, whether its an upgrade or not. Cannot say enough good things about this company and its people!

Deck and Patio TuneUp completed an entire replacement of my rotted out screened back porch with beautiful, maintenance free, custom aluminum framing. What was once an unusable porch is now my zen space! Gene is personable, professional and kept me informed from start to finish. He and his crew are top notch in their craft! Thank you!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Deck and Patio Tune Up did an amazing job on both our front and back patio. They replaced our patio railing which was made of wood and had rotted away. They came in and finished the front and back patio railing within a few days. They were quick to respond and provided a free consultation. They gave me regular updates as to when the project would start. They kept to their word and came on the scheduled day. They did a fantastic job. The job was not rushed at all. I saw how the team discussed what to do when certain unexpected things popped up along the way. The team who installed the patio railing took their time to complete quality work. They used quality materials and regularly inspected their work to make sure it was done appropriately. I absolutely recommend Deck and Patio Tune Up!
