    Our Approach

    A well-designed deck or pergola doesn't just add square footage. It fundamentally changes how you use your outdoor space. Our structures are engineered for Manitoba's climate, using materials that resist warping, fading, and rot through years of harsh winters and hot summers. We handle everything from initial design through permitting and final construction, ensuring a seamless process from concept to completion.

    1. Design

      Discovery call

      We start with a call to talk through how you want to use the deck, whether you need shade or privacy, your timeline, and a working budget.

    2. Site visit

      We walk the property with you and note how the deck will meet the house, access for construction, and any grade changes around the footprint.

    3. Concept and 3D design

      We draw the structure with decking, railings, and any pergola or screen, then build it in 3D so you can see the layout before we apply for permits.

    4. Build

      Permits and structure

      We handle permit-ready drawings and build the framing, footings, and structure to the approved plan.

    5. Decking and railings

      We install the composite, cedar, or PVC decking, then add railings, skirting, and stairs so the deck is safe and finished.

    6. Shade and finishing

      Pergolas, privacy screens, and integrated lighting go in last so they line up with the deck and the rest of the yard.

    Built for Winnipeg Winters

    Clay

    Red River clay moves as it wets and dries, so deck footings and posts have to sit on a base that stays stable. We plan the structure around the grade so water does not sit against the house or under the deck.

    Frost

    Winnipeg winters are hard on wood and fasteners. Composite decks hold colour and stay even through freeze and thaw with less yearly upkeep than untreated boards, and we detail railings and stairs so ice and snow have somewhere to go.

    Timing

    The build season is short. Designing a deck or pergola in the fall or winter means drawings and permits can be ready when the ground is workable in spring.

    What Decks & Structures Cost in Winnipeg

    $6,000 - $28,000

    Treated Wood Decks

    $10,000 - $50,000+

    Composite Decks

    $5,000 - $40,000+

    Pergolas

    $1,500 - $10,000

    Privacy Screens

    Deck cost depends on size, height, access, the decking you choose, and extras such as stairs, skirting, and railings. Composite decks sit higher than treated wood because of the material, not because the structure is planned differently.

    Pergolas and privacy screens are quoted as their own line items. Gazebos, pavilions, and cabanas are listed in the cost calculator if you want a covered structure.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Composite decking (like TimberTech or Trex) is the top choice for Manitoba's extreme climate. It resists warping, cracking, and fading through -40°C winters and hot summers, and requires virtually no maintenance beyond occasional cleaning. Premium PVC decking offers even better moisture resistance. Cedar remains a beautiful natural option but requires annual staining and sealing to maintain its appearance and structural integrity.

    Typical treated wood decks in Winnipeg fall in these calculator ranges: Basic $6,000 - $12,000, Mid-Range $12,000 - $20,000, and Premium $20,000 - $28,000. Composite decks are Basic $10,000 - $18,000, Mid-Range $18,000 - $25,000, and Premium $25,000 - $50,000+. Size, height, railings, and extras such as a pergola all affect the quote.

    Yes, most decks in Winnipeg require a building permit, especially if they are attached to your home or exceed 2 feet above grade. The permit process involves submitting a site plan, structural drawings, and ensuring compliance with setback requirements and the Manitoba Building Code. We handle all permitting as part of our service so the process is seamless for you.

    A standard deck build takes 1 to 3 weeks depending on size and complexity. A simple 200 sq ft deck might be completed in 5 to 7 working days, while a large multi-level deck with pergola, custom railings, and integrated lighting could take 3 to 4 weeks. Weather and permit timelines can also affect the schedule. We provide a detailed construction timeline before work begins.

    Quality composite decking typically lasts 25 to 50 years in Winnipeg with minimal maintenance. Most manufacturers offer 25-year structural warranties and lifetime fade/stain warranties. Unlike wood, composite won't rot, splinter, or require annual staining. The substructure (usually pressure-treated lumber or steel) should be inspected periodically to ensure the full system remains in excellent condition.

    Typical composite decks in Winnipeg fall in these calculator ranges: Basic $10,000 - $18,000, Mid-Range $18,000 - $25,000, and Premium $25,000 - $50,000+. The range depends on size, whether the deck is one or two tiers, and extras such as skirting and aluminum railing.

    Typical pergolas in Winnipeg fall in these calculator ranges: Basic $5,000 - $10,000, Mid-Range $10,000 - $20,000, and Premium $20,000 - $40,000+. Size, wood grade, and whether the structure is a simple shade pergola or a larger system all affect the quote.

    Yes. Most decks we build attach to the house and need to meet the existing floor level, doors, and grade. We plan the structure on site, handle permit-ready drawings, and build so the new deck drains away from the house and ties into the rest of the yard.
