Commercial Deck & FenceConstruction

Commercial decks are engineered for heavier loads and higher traffic. They use commercial-grade lumber (typically thicker joists and beams), heavier-duty fasteners and hardware, wider board spacing to meet commercial codes, and ADA-compliant railing heights and spacing. Commercial decks must meet stricter building codes, pass commercial inspections, and often require engineer-stamped plans for permitting. Our commercial installations are built to withstand daily business use for decades.

Yes! We specialize in restaurant outdoor dining decks designed for commercial use. These installations include ADA-compliant access ramps, proper railing height and spacing per commercial code, heavy-duty construction to support furniture and foot traffic, drainage systems to prevent water pooling, and integrated lighting for evening dining. We coordinate with health departments and building inspectors to ensure compliance with all restaurant outdoor seating regulations.

Yes, virtually all commercial deck and fence installations require permits and inspections. Commercial projects face stricter permitting requirements than residential. We handle all permit applications, submit required engineering plans, coordinate building inspections, and ensure compliance with ADA accessibility standards. Permit costs are outlined separately in your quote. Our experience with commercial permitting in Southern Maryland ensures smooth approval processes.

Absolutely! We build custom screening solutions for HVAC equipment, dumpster enclosures, utility meter screening, generator enclosures, and outdoor storage areas. These installations use commercial-grade materials, match your building aesthetic, meet local code requirements for access and ventilation, and improve curb appeal while keeping equipment secure. We can work from your specifications or design custom solutions.

Timeline depends on project size and complexity. A simple restaurant patio deck might take 1-2 weeks, while large multi-level corporate decks or extensive commercial fencing can take 3-6 weeks. We work with your schedule to minimize business disruption—often completing installations during off-hours or in phases. We provide detailed project schedules during the estimate process so you can plan accordingly.

Yes! Ongoing maintenance is critical for commercial installations. We offer annual and multi-year maintenance contracts including power washing and cleaning, board and fence panel replacement, refinishing and sealing, hardware inspection and tightening, and structural inspections. Regular maintenance extends the life of your deck or fence, maintains professional appearance, and prevents safety issues. Maintenance contracts provide preferred pricing and priority scheduling.
