Designed for the Way You Live and the Space You Have

Custom Deck Design & Construction in Pennsylvania

From Blank Backyards to Fully Built Outdoor Living

One-of-a-Kind Decks, Made to Fit Your Home

At Alliance Deck Builders of Pennsylvania, no two decks are alike. We specialize in custom builds that match your lifestyle, your home's layout, and your property's unique features. Whether you want a wraparound deck, elevated lounge, or a compact build for rowhouse living, we design and build it from the ground up. Our process includes layout planning, permitting, framing, surfacing, and finishing touches—all handled by our licensed team. Every deck we build is code-compliant, climate-ready, and built to hold up through Pennsylvania’s seasons.

Why Go Custom Instead of Pre-Fab?

Tailored Designs That Maximize Space, Style, and Use

Pre-made deck kits don’t account for real-world challenges—like slopes, small lots, or unique house layouts. With a custom build, we adapt every post, board, and beam to your property. Whether you're working around tree roots or matching existing trim, we make sure your deck fits like it belongs there. We also help you choose materials, shapes, and add-ons that align with how you want to use the space—from relaxing solo to entertaining a crowd.

  • Custom shapes and layouts for any footprint

  • Designed around your home’s elevation and architecture

  • No wasted space, awkward steps, or tacked-on feel

Built to Withstand Pennsylvania’s Weather

Durable Framing, Finishes, and Materials That Last

Rain, freeze-thaw cycles, and hot summers can destroy an average deck. That’s why we only use materials rated for Pennsylvania’s climate—pressure-treated framing, composite or sealed hardwood boards, and moisture barriers in all the right places. We also build for water runoff, snow load, and structural integrity in every season. Whether you’re in Philly or Erie, your deck will look great—and stay safe—for years to come.

From Design Consultation to Final Walkthrough

We start every deck build with a one-on-one design session—either on-site or remote—where we map out your goals, layout options, and features. Then we draft a plan, prep your site, handle permits, and build it to spec. You get updates at every stage, and we don’t leave until you’ve walked the job and signed off on every detail.

Add Value, Function, and Livable Space

Decks Built for Entertaining, Relaxing, and Everyday Use

A great deck turns your yard into a livable extension of your home. Whether you want a grilling station, lounge area, or space for the kids to play, we’ll design your build around real use—not just square footage.

Our decks are made for long-term function, with options like privacy walls, built-in benches, lighting, and more. We don’t just build platforms—we build outdoor rooms that get used year-round.

Your Choice of Materials, Features, and Finishes

We offer a full range of material options—composite for low upkeep, cedar for classic warmth, pressure-treated for value, or exotic hardwoods for something bold. We’ll help you weigh the pros and cons of each, then finish it with railing styles, post caps, lighting, and skirting that suit your design. No sales pressure—just smart, honest guidance from experienced pros.

Common Questions About Custom Deck Projects

What Pennsylvania Homeowners Ask Before Building

Not sure how it works? Here are some common questions we get when planning a new deck design and build.

Do you handle permits?

Yes—we manage all permitting and approvals required by your city or township.

Can you build on a slope or uneven yard?

Absolutely. We design around elevation changes and build decks that stay level and strong.

What’s the difference between composite and wood decks?

Wood has a natural look but needs maintenance. Composite lasts longer with less upkeep.

How long does the average project take?

Most builds are completed in 1–3 weeks, depending on complexity and permitting.
