Final Touch Decks & Fences3 Techno Metal Post helical piles holding up our pressure treated framing with G-tape to help protect the sub structure. Decking for this project was Azek's coastline and dark hickory with Timbertech's impression rail express using their modern top rail. Skirting was vertical dark hickory, horizontal fascia and black pvc lattice .
Mjolnir ConstructionUpgrade Complete! We built our latest TimberTech deck using a combination of colors from the PRO Reserve collection.
Dark Roast was used for the picture frame deck edge, stair tread nosings and deck skirting.
Antique Leather was used on the deck and stair tread infill boards as well as the stair riser fascia.
The white aluminum railing matches the window and door trim and really pops against the warm, natural tone of the deck.

Mjolnir ConstructionThis customer hired us to improve their backyard space, as the upper deck was in need of updating and they required a large deck with raised garden beds for planting.
We built a spectacular 360Sqft. pressure treated wood deck with a picture frame deck edge and mid span deck border. Skirting was installed across the front of the deck as well.
A large set of 6' wide pressure treated wood stairs feature the same design as the main deck. We always support our stairs with a limestone screening and patio stone base to prevent movement and sinking!
Two western red cedar garden beds finish the sides of the deck, which will be used for growing vegetables. As a special surprise for our customer, we dedicated the garden beds to the their mother and father who both recently passed away. Inscribed on a live edge piece of white cedar, are the words "Giardino di Maria" and "Giardino di Stefano" which translated from Italian is "Garden of Maria" and "Garden of Stefano".
To revitalize the upper balcony, we capped the drop beam and rim joists with new pressure treated wood. We also removed the old decking and replaced with new pressure treated wood. The railing was removed and replaced with an exterior post and rail system using pressure treated wood and black aluminum balusters.
This was a very special project for us, and one that we will always remember.
Mjolnir ConstructionAn enormous 750Sqft custom pressure treated wood deck and 70Sqft front porch we finished up in Merrickville this week.
To quote the building inspector for that area, "This is the nicest deck I've ever seen built".
Pictures speak louder than words however, so please enjoy!

Mjolnir ConstructionThis 14'x20' western red cedar deck may look fairly standard, although there are many fine details which we included.
✅ Mid span decking border and picture frame deck edge to eliminate ugly butt ends.
✅ Mitered stair treads and box step crafted in a unique, matching design.
✅ Clear caulking used in both ends of all aluminum balusters to eliminate the "rattle".
✅ Ends of railing cut on a 45° angle to avoid hard edges.
✅ All 2"x4" railing has been sanded down smooth which means no splinters!
✅ Privacy plus lattice work kept off the ground to avoid rot. Wooden stakes pounded into the ground under the deck to keep it in place. 1"x6" boards are used to hide seams.
✅ A tamped limestone base with patio stones acting as a solid base for the stairs.
✅ 3/4" Clear limestone under the deck to facilitate proper drainage.
It's details such as these that separate us from the competition, and show our enthusiasm for our work.
Mjolnir ConstructionA spacious western red cedar deck we completed for our latest client.
This deck features skirting on both the upper and lower levels, cantilevered picket railing and access to storage under the upper deck by way of a gate.
Nothing beats the smell of new cedar on a hot summer day!
Mjolnir ConstructionSome minor repairs were required to the wall before we could begin construction on this new deck.
The previous deck was bolted through the vinyl siding and situated on deck blocks, which is not code. After we removed the ledger board, there was water damage present to the wall sheathing along with many ants eating away at the structure. We filled the holes left behind by the lag bolts with a spray foam gap filler from GREAT STUFF. We then replaced two rows of vinyl siding to complete the repair. Finally, we were able to start construction of the new deck!
This is a typical floating deck on a patio stone and limestone base. The 14' x 22' platform provides many flexible options for use, there is plenty of room to include a BBQ, seating area, dining area.
The deck is skirted with 5/4" deck boards to keep animals out and is also a clean finish to the sides.
Across the front of the deck is a large set of stairs with a patio stone and limestone base to ensure no movement while in use. The large set of stairs provides access to the backyard no matter what the layout on the deck may be. It can also be used as casual seating if you have invited too many people to your party!

Mjolnir ConstructionThis was an interesting location for a deck! Located at the side of the house is a little alcove, where our customers were looking to create an outdoor living area as an extension of their living room.
We framed this 11' x 14' deck using pressure treated wood with a limestone and patio stone base. Dark brown TimberTech composite decking was chosen to provide a suitable floor, and the underside of the deck was closed off with 5/4" vertical wood deck boards as skirting. To finish it all off we closed in the space with charcoal grey aluminum railing.
Thank you to our clients for providing the aerial shot!
Mjolnir ConstructionA front porch deck with stairs and ramp was in dire need of replacing for our latest customer. With the winter season around the corner, it was a safety concern to have this project completed quickly.
We used pressure treated wood to complete the framing, decking and railing. A cost effective material that requires some maintenance.
The railing incorporates stylish black aluminum balusters, post anchors and rail brackets to give a modern appearance.
There are a few items we would like to point out that may not be obvious to the average homeowner, but are small finishing touches that we feel set us apart from our competition...
✔️ A 1"x6" fence board was used to border the top of the skirting, hiding the screws used to fasten the skirt boards. The 1"x6" also hides the ugly butt ends of the decking.
✔️ Rounded corners were used at the end of the railings for ease of use. All railings were also sanded down.
✔️ Three structural screws at 8" in length were used to secure the 4"x4" posts that were side mounted to the deck and ramp. These screws are just as strong as a 3/8"x8" galvanized lag screw, but blend in better with the wood and can be counter sunk to make them even less visible.
✔️ A double mid span deck board design was used to eliminate deck boards butting against each other, and also creates a nice visual when moving from the ramp to the deck.
✔️ Cold patch asphalt was put down at the bottom of the ramp to create a seamless transition from the driveway to the ramp surface.
We could not feel more proud that these homeowners chose us to build them an attractive and safe deck with access, trusting that it would be completed on schedule!
