Deck Installation

As a professional deck builder, Top South Decks & Porches delivers expert deck construction from permitting through final walkthrough. Every deck we build prioritizes long-term stability, everyday usability, and visual appeal. Our in-house crews use proven framing methods with materials from Fortress Building Products and TimberTech to ensure every structure holds up for decades.

Residential Decking

Our residential decking service creates custom decks that reflect each homeowner's lifestyle, taste, and property. We use premium composite and PVC materials from Trex, TimberTech by Azek, and Deckorators, paired with 3D design renderings so you see exactly what your deck will look like before construction starts.

Commercial Decking

Top South builds safe, high-capacity decks for restaurants, event spaces, and community areas. Strength and design work together to meet business requirements while maintaining an appealing appearance for guests and customers.

Deck Features

From railings and lighting to underdeck systems and skirting, our deck contractors build complete deck solutions. We offer In-Lite and Tru-Scapes lighting, composite and cable railings from Trex and TimberTech, and full underdeck systems including panel-based, gutter-and-channel, and snap-in options to maximize the space beneath your deck.

Shaded Structures

We design and install pergolas, pavilions, and gazebos using cedar, Doug fir, PVC, fiberglass, composite, and aluminum. Our builds include attached, freestanding, gable, louvered, and classic pergola styles, plus Struxure automated louvered systems. Each structure provides shade, protection, and style built for long-term durability.

Elegant Porches

Screened-in porches, covered porches, sunrooms, 3-season rooms, porticos, and porch enclosures extend your home's living space. We use SCREENEZE and EZ-Screen porch window systems for clean installations. Our focus stays on comfort, function, and visual appeal while creating outdoor areas you can enjoy year-round.

Stunning Patios

Concrete, stamped concrete, paver, brick, natural stone, and flagstone patios built for beauty, strength, and low maintenance. We offer attached, covered, and open patio styles with features like built-in seating, fire pits, fireplaces, and outdoor kitchens to create complete outdoor entertainment areas.

Outdoor Living

We design outdoor bars, kitchens, entertainment zones, fire pits, fireplaces, privacy walls, and covered lounges. Built-in benches, corner seating, storage boxes, planters, and sheds round out each space. Every build is optimized for relaxation, socializing, and year-round use, making your backyard a true extension of your home.

3D Design and Visualization

Every Top South project starts with professional 3D modeling and rendering, plus 2D floorplans and drawings for permits. Customization options cover seating layouts, outdoor kitchens, lighting, and material selections so you see every detail before construction begins.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently replaced our pressure treated wood deck and hired Top South Decks & Porches to built the frame in Feb. As we handled permit, demolish, and decking/guardrail ourselves, the review is about deck frame and customer service only. It is an overall very pleasant experience with Federico and his crew.

Pros: Federico is very knowledgeable about his work. He replied most of my email/text within 24 hours, answered all my questions, and communicated everything clearly. His quote is competitive and outlined all the works to be done. His crew is very efficient and had the work done quickly. He also stopped by multiple times to address our concerns in a timely manner. He stood behind his word and replaced a splitting post after the job is completed.

Cons: Because the crew got things done fairly quick, they did not pay much attention to material selection. We saw the scrapped cut post is of better quality than the piece used. I also found a few nails near the worksite after the crew left.

Again, Top South Decks & Porches got the job done as expected and honored the warranty. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a decent deck builder.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. INCREDIBLE experience with Federico & team over at Top South! We had an old sinking sunroom from the 80s, and they completely transformed it! Federico was a great communicator along the way and was the best problem solver when it came to our older home. They provided us with detailed renderings and provided plenty of material options/recommendations. The best part is he is a licensed and professional contractor, so you know everything is being done right with integrity. They made the permitting process so easy. When getting a job like this done, you have to trust your team and we definitely did! THANK YOU again!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an excellent experience with Top South D&P. They redid our master bathroom shower, transformed a half bath into a full bath, and painted our entire house. The quality of their work is outstanding. They are incredibly thorough, keep everything clean and well-contained, and are some of the hardest workers we’ve ever worked with. Federico and his crew are extremely responsive and truly take pride in what they do. We couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend Top South D&P to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality construction work.
