Decks · Doylestown, PA
Footings and frame
Footings have to sit below the frost line, at the depth the township's code sets. A footing above it heaves every winter and takes the deck with it. On an older deck, that's the first thing we check.

Local decks
What we look for on Warrington decks
Most of Warrington went up in the 1990s and 2000s, with a lot of townhouses in the mix.
Townhouse decks
On a townhouse lot there isn't much room between the deck and the property line, so the setbacks matter. We measure before we draw anything.
Composite or wood
Trex and TimberTech boards don't rot, splinter or need staining, and they cost more up front. Wood costs less to build and needs sealing every couple of years. We'll price both if you want to compare.
Frame first
Repair or replace? We look underneath first
Most tired decks don't need tearing out. We check the frame, the footings and where the deck attaches to the house. If those are sound, new boards and railings usually do the job for a lot less than a new deck. If the frame is rotten, new boards on top won't fix it, and we'll tell you.

In their words
What homeowners say
Mirjeta GashiGoogle review Replacing a roof isn't something you do everyday. But in doing so you want to make sure you have someone knowledgeable, trustworthy, and efficient. When I met Rich and Jack from Dynasty Construction & Rofing they made me feel comfortable immediately. I knew they knew their stuff and they handled everything for me. I didn't have time to worry or doubt because their confidence and professionalism surpassed all my expectations. Jack walked me through everything step by step and answered any questions or concerns patiently. I definitely recommend them because they definitely have your best interest in mind.
Smokey IGoogle review I recently hired Dynasty Construction & Roofing to take care of some issues with my roof, including replacing missing shingles and recapping my chimney, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. From the start, they were responsive, professional, and easy to work with. They clearly explained the scope of work, provided a fair estimate, and showed up on time ready to get the job done. The quality of their workmanship really stood out and everything was completed with attention to detail, and you can tell they take pride in what they do. The new shingles blend in perfectly with the existing roof, and the chimney recap was done cleanly and securely. They also made sure to clean up thoroughly after the job, which I really appreciated.
Ergi DemirajGoogle review Rich and Jack & his team were outstanding! Their work is great & pricing is fair. We had a portion of our roof repaired that caused a severe leak (and hole) in our ceiling. They shared drone shots of the exterior as the work progressed. They also noticed other areas of concern & repaired at no additional cost. Jack also worked throughout the weekend to complete the inside drywall repair. Will definitely use for any future work! Highly recommend.
Price
What a new deck costs in Warrington
We don't price decks over the phone. Composite costs more up front than wood, and a deck up on posts costs more than one near the ground. What moves the number is the size, the height, the boards you pick, the railings and stairs, and whether the frame underneath can stay.
Composite costs more on day one and a lot less every summer after. Wood costs less to build and needs sealing every couple of years. We'll price both if you want to compare.

Questions about decks in Warrington
Do I need a permit for a deck in Warrington?
Warrington uses one combined zoning and building permit application, with the deck's dimensions, two sets of plans and a site plan. We put it together and file it.
My address says Chalfont. Am I in Warrington?
Maybe. About a third of Warrington Township uses the 18914 Chalfont ZIP. Give us the address and we'll check which township it's in.
How deep do deck footings go?
Below the frost line, at the depth your township's code sets. A footing that sits above it moves every winter, and the deck moves with it.
Trex or TimberTech, which is better?
Both make good composite boards. The difference is mostly the color range, the board profiles and the price of the line you choose. We go through the options with you at the estimate.
Should I repair my deck or replace it?
Look underneath before you decide. If the frame and footings are sound, new boards and railings usually do the job for a lot less than a new deck. If the frame is rotten, new boards on top won't fix it.
