Full Deck Replacement: Built from the Ground Up
When rot, water damage, or structural wear compromises your deck’s underlying joists and support posts, a simple resurfacing isn’t enough. If the structural foundation is unsafe, a full deck replacement is necessary to protect your home and family.
-
Tear Down & Dispose: If you have an existing structure, we carefully dismantle and dispose your existing deck old boards, joists, and posts.
-
New Structural Framing: We build a solid, code-compliant foundation using heavy-duty pressure-treated wood framing designed for maximum stability.
-
Custom Finishing: We install your choice of wood or composite surface boards, custom railing systems, stairways, and built-in lighting to complete your brand-new
Expert Deck Resurfacing & Materials Upgrades
When aging boards or structural framing reach the end of their lifespan, our team safely dismantles your old deck and builds a modern, durable replacement with quality new materials. If the frame is still structurally sound, we can preserve it and upgrade the surface boards, trim, and stairs with modern composite for a refreshed, low-maintenance or wood finish.
Custom Decking and Design Options
While many standard decks can be modified to fit almost any property, if you want a deck that’s made for your home then there’s only one thing to build: A custom deck. Custom decks have soared in popularity over the last few decades, and it’s not hard to see why. They offer complete control over your deck, allowing you to create a deck that’s a perfect backyard oasis. Excel Fencing and Decking will work with you to build a custom deck that fits your needs and budget. Our expert craftsmen are the best deck builders in Maryland and can build classic wooden and durable composite custom decks of the highest quality.
Choosing A Deck Material: Composite Vs. Natural Wood
Finding the right decking material depends on your budget, style preferences, and how much time you want to spend on routine maintenance. We specialize in both major decking options to ensure your home gets the exact look and durability you need.

Low-Maintenance Composite Decking
Engineered for ultimate longevity without the hassle of staining, sealing, or board rot. We install leading brands like Fiberon and TimberTech to give you a gorgeous wood-grain finish that withstands Maryland weather year-round. Explore composite decking to see if it’s the right match for you.

Pressure-Treated Wood Decking
Nothing matches the natural warmth and affordability of real pressure-treated or natural wood decking. It remains the most budget-friendly way to construct a sturdy, reliable deck while giving you complete flexibility to refresh its appearance whenever you choose.
