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 ConstructionThis TimberTech deck weighs in at over 400Sqft and features Dark Cocoa, which is a new colour for 2022 included in the budget friendly Edge Prime + collection.
Adobe PVC skirting provides another less expensive option for closing in underneath the deck.
Black aluminum railing adds a sharp contrast to the soft tones of the deck and provides a safe guardrail.
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!
Mjolnir ConstructionA warm tone, dark roast board colour from the PRO collection. The sides of the deck are skirted with tan PVC boards, including an access door. Commercial brown aluminum railings finish this one off nicely.
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 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 ConstructionWe built an impressive 14' x 20' pressure treated wood deck for this customer, who was looking for a backyard space for entertaining.
We began by stripping all of the cedar railing and decking off of the existing builder deck and replaced it with pressure treated wood. We also widened the stairs from the standard 3' to a full width 6'.
Next came the 14' x 20' deck with diagonal decking and a picture frame deck edge. 8' Stairs lead down to the remainder of the backyard area. A modern style bench was installed to act as both a barrier and fucntional seating.
Mjolnir ConstructionOur first project of the year is a gorgeous 350Sqft MicroPro Sienna Brown Pressure Treated Deck.
Situated on patio stones to keep the deck low to the ground, it also features a two way decking pattern!
Vertical 5/4" deckboards were used to complete the skirting which is a nice finishing touch that many customers appreciate.
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!
