Wood Deck Building in West Virginia – Cedar & Pressure-Treated

Classic Look. Built-In Strength.

Custom Wood Decks That Fit Your Home and Budget

Wood decks are timeless—and when built right, they’re tough. At Alliance Deck Builders of West Virginia, we design and build wood decks using cedar for beauty and pressure-treated lumber for strength. Whether you want a rustic porch with wide stairs or a large entertainment space with railing and trim, we tailor every build to your home’s needs. It’s natural charm paired with local craftsmanship—designed for real West Virginia living.

Which Wood Option Is Right for You?

Cedar for Looks. Pressure-Treated for Value.

Both cedar and pressure-treated lumber offer strong advantages. Cedar is naturally insect-resistant, has a rich grain, and weathers to a beautiful gray. Pressure-treated wood is more affordable, widely available, and long-lasting when sealed. Our team helps you compare both based on look, budget, and long-term care. We also offer sealing, staining, and regular maintenance plans to extend your deck’s life no matter what material you choose.

  • Cedar offers premium natural beautyere's some stuff

  • Treated lumber is strong and cost-effective

  • Both options meet WV building codes

Framing That Holds Up for Decades

We Don’t Cut Corners on What You Don’t See

The real strength of a wood deck is in its frame. We use heavy-duty pressure-treated joists, footings built to handle freeze-thaw cycles, and corrosion-resistant hardware that won’t fail in West Virginia’s humidity. Even for smaller ground-level decks, we meet or exceed code requirements for structural support. Want to add a roof later? We’ll prep the footers now. Want wider stairs or built-in seating? We design the frame to hold it.

Custom Cuts, Clean Edges, Tight Joists

We Build Every Wood Deck by Hand

Every wood board is measured, cut, and fastened on-site by our experienced crews. We don’t use prefabricated panels or leave exposed hardware. From hidden screws to mitred corners, your deck will show true craftsmanship in every detail. Our builders are local to West Virginia—and we take pride in clean lines, snug fits, and a final product that feels solid under every step. You’ll notice the difference from day one.

Protect Your Investment from Day One

Sealants, Stains & Yearly Maintenance Options

We don’t just build wood decks—we help protect them. After your cedar or treated deck is installed, we can apply a protective stain or clear sealant to extend its life and enhance the grain. Our team also offers yearly maintenance packages to clean, reseal, and inspect your deck, so you get years of safe use and better long-term value. A little care goes a long way—and we’re here to help every step.

What to Expect with Wood Decks

Wood remains one of the most flexible, forgiving, and familiar deck materials—and with the right care, it delivers incredible value. It allows for quick builds, easy repairs, and timeless curb appeal. Our team guides you through board layout, trim options, stair placement, and more, so your deck fits exactly how you use your space. Whether you want classic horizontal planks or a diagonal pattern, we build it to match.

  • Available in multiple board widths and lengths

  • Can be painted, stained, or sealed as needed

  • Easy to add on, repair, or refinish later

Want to Replace an Old Wood Deck?

We Rebuild and Reinforce Aging Decks Too

If your existing wood deck is starting to splinter, sag, or feel unsafe, we can assess the frame and rebuild what’s needed. Many older decks in West Virginia were built without modern fasteners or codes—so we bring them up to spec with new supports, ledgers, and sealed lumber. In some cases, we can reuse the base and simply replace the surface. In others, we’ll rebuild it stronger from the ground up.
