The bones of a beautiful deck? Right here.
What you’re looking at are custom-cut stair stringers—each notch precisely measured and cut by hand. These aren’t just stairs, they’re structural art that sets the tone for a durable, safe, and standout outdoor space.

📏 Every cut counts, and we take pride in every single one.

We often run our deck boards long during install — it gives us room to work with and keeps things flexible as the layout comes together. Once everything’s in place, we snap a clean line and make one continuous cut to trim the edges perfectly straight. That’s how we keep our borders tight, square, and clean all the way through.

It’s a simple detail, but one that makes a huge difference in the final look and longevity of the deck. Little steps like this are what separate a good job from a great one.

We’re mid-install on this beautiful cedar siding—but what really matters is what’s behind it. This project features a specialized rainscreen designed specifically for cedar shingles. Unlike the typical method using pressure-treated plywood strips, this system creates a continuous air space between the shingles and the home’s framing.

Why does that matter? If any moisture sneaks behind the siding, the air gap allows it to drain out and dry effectively, preventing mold, rot, and long-term damage. It's a smart way to protect your home and extend the life of your exterior—especially in our wet coastal climate.

Thinking of upgrading your siding? We can help make it both beautiful and built to last.

🐜 Rotten Deck Surprise: Carpenter Ants! 🪵

During a recent teardown, we found what you don’t want hiding under your deck — a colony of carpenter ants.

These pests love moist, rotting wood, and can cause serious damage if left unchecked. This is why regular maintenance and proper drainage are key to a long-lasting outdoor structure!

In this clip, we scoop them out and prep the area for safe rebuild. 👷‍♂️
