Experience the natural beauty and timeless appeal of a professionally installed wood deck built for Beaumont's climate.
There is something special about real wood that no synthetic material can match. The natural grain patterns, the warm feel underfoot, and the way wood ages over time create a deck with character and charm. If you love the authentic look of wood and do not mind some maintenance, a wood deck might be perfect for your home.
At BDD Beaumont Deck Builder, we have been installing quality wood decks in Beaumont since 2024. We know which wood species handle our climate best and how to build decks that resist warping, splitting, and premature rot. Your wood deck will be both beautiful and durable.
Not all wood is created equal, especially in Southeast Texas. Here are your best options for a deck that will last:
For most homeowners in Beaumont, pressure-treated pine offers the best balance of cost and performance. We can help you choose the right species based on your budget and how you plan to use your deck.
While composite materials have advantages, wood decking offers benefits that keep it popular year after year.
Wood costs significantly less to install than composite, sometimes 30 to 50 percent less. This makes it easier to afford a larger deck or add features like built-in seating or planters.
Real wood has depth and character that synthetic materials try to imitate but never quite match. The grain patterns, natural variations, and way wood weathers over time create a unique, authentic look.
Wood is simple to work with. If a board gets damaged, we can easily replace just that board. You can also change the color anytime with stain or paint, something you cannot do with composite.
In hot Texas sun, wood stays cooler than most composite materials. This makes your deck more comfortable to walk on barefoot during summer months.
Proper installation makes all the difference in how long your wood deck lasts. We follow best practices that maximize the life of your investment.
We start with concrete footings that go deep enough to support your deck properly. The frame is built with pressure-treated lumber and proper joist spacing. Everything is level and square from the beginning.
We use corrosion-resistant screws or hidden fasteners that will not rust or stain your deck over time. Boards are installed with proper spacing to allow for expansion and drainage.
Once construction is complete, we can apply your choice of stain or sealant to protect the wood and enhance its appearance. This initial treatment is crucial for long-term durability. Learn more about our deck staining and sealing services.
Wood decks need regular care to look their best and last as long as possible. Here is what that involves:
Plan on cleaning your deck once or twice a year and reapplying stain or sealant every two to three years. This prevents moisture damage and keeps the wood from graying or splitting. The good news is that maintenance gets easier once you establish a routine, and many homeowners find it satisfying to care for their deck.
If maintenance sounds like more work than you want, consider our composite deck options instead. They give you a similar look with almost no upkeep required.
