A Better Approach to Deck Building
A great deck starts with more than boards and railings. It starts with a clear plan for how the space will connect to your home, how your family will move through it, and how the finished deck will hold up through Virginia weather. Curtis Bros. Contracting helps Williamsburg homeowners think through layout, stairs, railings, material choices, traffic flow, shade, access points, and long-term maintenance before construction begins.
Whether you are replacing an aging wood deck, upgrading to Trex Select composite decking, adding safer stairs and railings, or building a larger outdoor living space, our goal is to make the process clear from the first conversation. We focus on practical design, durable construction, honest communication, and careful workmanship so your new deck feels like a natural extension of your home.
The process below shows how we move from the first estimate to the final walkthrough. It is designed to help homeowners in Williamsburg, Ford’s Colony, Kingsmill, Governor’s Land, James City County, and nearby Virginia communities understand what to expect before the project begins.

-
1
Site Visit, Measurements & Deck Goals
We start by looking at the home, yard, doors, grade changes, utilities, drainage, traffic flow, and how the deck will be used day to day. This helps us understand the right size, layout, access points, stairs, railings, and overall direction before the project is priced.
-
2
Deck Design, Materials & Written Scope
Next, we define the deck footprint, framing needs, decking material, railing style, stair placement, fascia, skirting, and finish details. Whether the project uses Trex Select composite decking, wood decking, or a combination of upgrades, the goal is a clear written scope before work begins.
-
3
Permits, HOA Review & Scheduling
When permits, HOA approvals, or neighborhood requirements apply, we plan for them before construction starts. We also confirm material availability, site access, delivery needs, and scheduling so the deck project moves forward with fewer surprises.
-
4
Demo, Footings & Structural Framing
If an old deck needs to be removed, we handle demolition and site preparation first. Then we move into the structural work: layout, footings, posts, beams, joists, blocking, ledger details, flashing, and framing corrections needed to support a safe, long-lasting deck.
-
5
Deck Boards, Railings, Stairs & Finish Details
This is where the finished deck takes shape. We install the deck boards, borders, fascia, railings, balusters, stairs, landings, and trim details that turn the structure into a usable outdoor living space. Each detail is checked for fit, function, and appearance as the project comes together.
-
6
Inspection Readiness, Cleanup & Final Walkthrough
Before handoff, we review the finished deck, clean the work area, address final details, and prepare for any required inspection steps. We walk the project with you, answer questions about care and maintenance, and make sure the finished deck is ready to enjoy.
Why Invest in Deck Resurfacing in Williamsburg, VA?

Frequently Asked Questions
Deck building costs depend on the size of the deck, framing requirements, decking material, railing style, stair layout, site access, demolition needs, and finish details. A ground-level wood deck will usually price differently than a larger elevated Trex Select composite deck with stairs, railings, fascia, and custom details. Curtis Bros. Contracting provides project-specific estimates so Williamsburg homeowners can make decisions based on the actual scope of work, not a generic square-foot number.
Permit requirements can depend on where the home is located, the height of the deck, the size of the structure, whether the deck is attached to the home, and the overall project scope. Some neighborhoods may also require HOA approval before work begins. During the planning process, Curtis Bros. Contracting helps identify the permit, inspection, and neighborhood approval items that may apply to your deck project.
Deck replacement usually means removing the old deck and rebuilding the structure, including framing, posts, beams, joists, railings, and stairs when needed. Deck resurfacing, sometimes called a deck reskin, focuses on replacing worn deck boards, railings, fascia, or finish materials while keeping the existing framing if it is still structurally sound. Curtis Bros. inspects the existing deck condition before recommending resurfacing or full replacement.
Yes, if the existing framing is in good condition and properly built for the new decking system, a Trex Select resurfacing project may be a strong option. Trex Select composite deck boards can give an older deck a cleaner, more durable, lower-maintenance surface. Before resurfacing begins, the structure should be checked for rot, movement, improper spacing, weak connections, and any issues that need correction.
TimberTech is a strong option for homeowners who want a clean composite deck surface with less routine upkeep than traditional wood decking. It works well for outdoor living spaces, backyard decks, pool decks, stairs, and railing upgrades. Many Williamsburg homeowners choose composite decking because it offers a finished look while reducing the need for frequent staining, sealing, and board replacement associated with wood decks.
The timeline depends on the size and complexity of the deck, material availability, permitting, HOA approvals, weather, demolition, framing needs, inspections, and finish details. Smaller deck projects may move faster, while larger elevated decks, multi-level decks, Trex Select projects, covered decks, screened porches, and custom railing or stair layouts can take longer. Curtis Bros. discusses schedule expectations before the project begins so homeowners know what to expect.
