Expert Deck Construction in Charlotte, NC

Deck construction in Charlotte means building for a climate that delivers over 40 inches of rain annually, high summer humidity, and occasional freeze-thaw cycles. At Piney Creek Hardscapes, we design and build decks that account for those conditions from the ground up. That starts with properly sized footings for Mecklenburg County soil, correct joist spacing, and materials selected to resist moisture and long-term wear. We work with homeowners across Charlotte to plan decks that fit their yard, their home's structure, and how they actually use outdoor space. Whether you want a single-level platform off the back door or a multi-level structure with built-in seating, we scope the project around your property. Charlotte's Mecklenburg County Code Enforcement handles plan review and inspections for residential decks, and our builds are designed to meet those requirements. If your neighborhood has HOA guidelines on railing styles or color, we factor those in early. Contact Piney Creek Hardscapes to schedule a site visit and get a clear scope for your deck project.

I called them after another person canceled on me and they came to my property the same day gave me a price and when all block was delivered they were done in three days. They we professional and very nice to work with. The workers did more that I asked for. The video is the start and the pictures are when it was done. Very pleased with their work. You will not go wrong with Piney Creek.

Worked with Piney Creek on getting a walkway and drainage project installed. The project was completed over a year ago. It entailed installing a catch basin, tying the gutters and downspouts into the main line, removing old pavers and installing a beautiful brick herringbone walkway. The workers did a fantastic job. We no longer have drainage issues. We love the finished walkway.
