Dynamic Decks designs and builds residential decks for homeowners in Mead, Washington. Our deck builders can help you replace an existing deck or plan a new one with the stairs, railing, and materials that suit your home.
No obligation. We'll get back to you fast.
The position of the house, the grade, and existing site features all matter when we plan a deck. We look at the space available for the structure and stairs, including any septic features that may affect the proposed layout.
The location of the house, property lines, and existing structures affects where a deck and stairs can fit. For county review, the site plan shows those features and the proposed setbacks. We consider the complete footprint, not just the boards next to the door.
If your property has a septic system, we consider its location when planning the deck and supports. For county review, the site plan identifies applicable septic features; if the drain-field location is unknown, the health district can help.
A change in grade can affect stairs, support height, and the information shown in an elevation drawing. We assess the deck height on your property instead of assigning one condition to every home.
For county permitting information, see the county permit and jurisdiction resources. For unincorporated Spokane County property, a residential deck more than 30 inches above grade requires a building permit, measured as specified in the county deck guide. Lower decks can still have other requirements, and not every design qualifies for fast-track review. The county application calls for a site plan, elevation drawing, and construction information, and applications go through the permit application portal. We discuss the plans and review process with you, including who will handle each submission before construction. If permit acquisition is included in our agreed work, we can take care of it. HOA approval is separate.
A building permit and HOA approval are different reviews. If your home belongs to an association, we can talk through its requested design information and agree on who will send it in.
We handle new deck installation and full deck replacement projects. Our deck builders can work through the relationship between the door, deck height, and stairs before you choose the finishing details.
Whether the old deck no longer suits your household or you are starting with an empty yard, we can build a residential deck to fit. We discuss how much room you need outside the door.
A deck replacement starts with the existing space, while a new build starts with your proposed layout. In either case, we plan the installation with the deck height and access in mind.
During a design consultation, we can look at how your proposed deck fits beside the house and what you want to do on it. That conversation helps establish the footprint before construction.
We can provide a 3D design when you want another way to examine the plan. It gives us a visual basis for discussing the proposed layout and features.
The railing you choose affects the appearance of both the deck and its stairs. We can include railing installation in the project and talk through those choices together.
If you use the deck in the evening, let us know where you need light. Steps and seating areas are useful places to consider as we plan the installation.
For a higher deck, the area underneath may have a use of its own. We can discuss an underdeck drainage system and the route water would take away from that space.
A wall at the edge of the deck can provide separation where you sit. We consider the view you want to screen and how the wall fits with the deck's layout.
You may only need to screen one view rather than the entire deck. We install privacy screens and can discuss the height and position you have in mind.
A shade structure can shelter a seating area without covering the whole deck or patio. We consider the size of the area, the kind of overhead coverage you prefer, and the supports needed for your choice.
We build deck covers, most of them custom wood structures made on site. Before deciding on the design, we can discuss how the cover and its supports fit the deck.
When we plan a patio cover, we look at the room you want beneath it and where supports can go. One material option is ACRYLITE patio covers; we can compare that with the other choices for your project.
If you prefer an open overhead structure, a custom pergola is an option. We plan the posts around the space you want to use below.
A cabana can give you a separate spot to sit in the shade. We can talk through its location, interior space, and connection to the rest of the yard.
We build custom gazebos for covered outdoor gathering. The available yard space and where you want to enter help shape the plan.
Whether you want room to cook outside or a spot to sit near the house, we can help. Our outdoor living work includes patios, outdoor kitchens, and porches, with covered and screened porch options to consider.
The layout of an outdoor kitchen should give the cook enough room to work without blocking the surrounding walkway. We discuss your intended features and how you want to use the area.
A patio can connect the house to an outdoor dining or sitting area. We plan patio construction around the entrance, furnishings, and available yard space.
A porch can give you room to sit near an entrance. We build covered and screened porches, and we can explain the different protection they offer from weather and insects.
Our decking choices include wood, composite, and PVC. Each has its own appearance and care considerations. We can show you samples and discuss railing for the deck and stairs as well.
Trex and TimberTech are two of the brands whose decking we install. Each also offers railing, and we can discuss a custom railing instead. Explore the manufacturers we work with.
When comparing deck contractors in Mead, consider how each estimate reflects the proposed design rather than square footage alone. Height, access, materials, stairs, and removal of an existing structure can all affect the work.
Existing site features may affect where supports and stairs can go. We consider those details when we prepare the estimate for your home.
Your design and the work required to build it shape the schedule. Permit review, materials, weather, and access can affect timing, so we discuss the sequence once we understand the project.
Where approval is required, allow time for the plans and permit review before construction. The reviewing office can clarify the steps for your property.
Share any date you are working toward with our deck builders, and we can discuss it with the project details.
From the first conversation through construction, we follow the steps below. Your agreement identifies the work we will perform.
Start by sharing your address and what you want the deck to do for your household. Photos can help our deck builders see the existing space before we discuss options.
Our deck builders review where the deck could fit, how the stairs meet the yard, and which materials interest you. We also consider the applicable site and building requirements.
If a 3D model would help you compare the layout, we can provide one. Our free estimate describes the proposed work for your review.
Once the right reviewing office is identified, we discuss the approvals and responsibilities for the project. We can obtain a permit when that work is included in our agreement; HOA approval is separate.
We build according to the agreement, discuss any required inspections, and invite you to walk the completed deck with us. Bring any questions about the finished work to that walkthrough. Read about our deck-building process.
As your deck builder, we help connect the design choices to the property: how high the deck sits, where stairs meet the yard, and which material fits your maintenance preferences. Whether you need a composite deck builder or prefer a traditional wood surface, we help you make those decisions around your home's layout rather than relying on a standard plan.
If a county site plan is needed, we discuss the relevant property information and the next approval steps with you.
The estimate depends on more than square footage. Our deck builders price the chosen boards and railing along with the height, stairs, access, and any removal of the old deck.
The schedule depends on design, permit review, materials, weather, and the extent of the work. Once the work is defined, our deck builder team can discuss its likely sequence.
If you prefer wood, plan for ongoing care. Composite and PVC are alternatives with their own looks and upkeep needs. Our deck builders can show you the options and discuss their costs.
Before deciding to replace the entire deck, have its condition assessed and consider what you want to change. We can discuss the proposed work with you, but we do not offer a standalone repair program.
For the county's fast-track process, show all property lines, existing structures, the new deck and setbacks, plus septic and critical areas if applicable. The county deck guide also asks for an elevation drawing. Confirm that the county is the correct authority and ask it about any project-specific additions.
Tell us what you would like to change outdoors at your Mead home and where you want the stairs and gathering space to fit. We can discuss the layout, materials, and site-plan questions.
