The key to a long-lasting deck isn't just quality construction—it's ongoing care and strategic upgrades that protect your investment from the elements. Our preventative maintenance and upgrade services help Nanaimo homeowners avoid costly repairs while improving their deck's performance and longevity.
Your outdoor space deserves more than a standard deck—it deserves a custom-designed sanctuary that reflects your lifestyle and enhances your home's architecture. At Nanaimo Deck Pros, we specialize in creating bespoke deck solutions that seamlessly blend form and function, turning your backyard into an extension of your living space.
Our expert design team works closely with you to understand your vision, preferences, and how you plan to use your deck. Whether you're envisioning intimate family gatherings, large entertaining spaces, or a peaceful retreat for morning coffee, we craft designs that bring your dreams to life. Every project begins with detailed consultations where we assess your property's unique characteristics, sun exposure, terrain, and existing architecture.
Even the most well-built decks require maintenance and occasional repairs to remain safe and attractive. Nanaimo's coastal climate—with its rain, moisture, and temperature fluctuations—can take a toll on outdoor structures over time. That's where our comprehensive repair and restoration services come in, breathing new life into aging or damaged decks.
From intimate backyard retreats to expansive commercial installations, Nanaimo Deck Pros brings the same commitment to excellence regardless of project scale or complexity. Our versatility and expertise make us the preferred choice for both homeowners seeking personal outdoor spaces and businesses requiring professional deck solutions.
Vinyl sundecks represent the pinnacle of modern outdoor flooring technology, combining exceptional durability with minimal maintenance requirements. These innovative surfaces have become increasingly popular among Nanaimo homeowners who want beautiful outdoor spaces without the constant upkeep traditional wood decks demand.
Our professional vinyl sundeck systems create completely waterproof surfaces that protect the structure beneath while providing a clean, attractive finish above. This dual functionality is particularly valuable for second-story decks, where proper waterproofing prevents moisture damage to living spaces below. The vinyl membrane system we install forms a seamless barrier against rain, snow, and moisture intrusion.
The right railing system does more than meet building codes—it defines your deck's character, ensures safety, and can dramatically enhance your property's curb appeal. At Nanaimo Deck Pros, we offer an extensive selection of railing options to match any architectural style and personal preference, from traditional wood designs to sleek contemporary systems.
Selecting the right deck builder is crucial. At Nanaimo Deck Pros, we've earned our reputation as the premier deck construction company on Vancouver Island through unwavering commitment to quality. We understand the unique challenges posed by our coastal climate—from heavy winter rains to salt air corrosion.
Nanaimo's 1,400 mm of annual rainfall and salt air requires specialized construction. We don't just meet codes; we exceed them.
Sloped surfaces (minimum 10 mm per metre) and waterproof flashing tape to prevent rot.
Hot-dipped galvanized fasteners and sealers for cut ends to resist salt air corrosion.
Concrete footings below frost line (minimum 45 cm) to handle wet soil conditions.
