Forest Hill Deck Building Services
A plain backyard can become a more useful place to relax, entertain and spend time with family. Kerta Construction works with Forest Hill homeowners to plan and build custom decks, from a simple platform deck to a multi-level design. We consider your home’s architecture, the shape of your yard and how you want to use the space before recommending a layout.
Our decking services include deck design, new deck construction and replacing an ageing deck, including its railings and structural components. We build with composite, PVC and pressure-treated wood, helping you compare the cost, appearance and upkeep of each option. Whether your current deck has seen better days or you’re planning an entirely new outdoor space, our custom deck building services are tailored to your property, preferred style and budget.

The material you choose affects the initial cost, natural look, maintenance requirements and lifespan of your deck. We’ll explain the differences and recommend an option that fits your budget and how you plan to use your backyard.
Composite Decking
Composite is our main decking option for homeowners who want an attractive deck without regular staining or sealing. It resists fading, rot and moisture, reducing the upkeep associated with traditional wood decks. As a TimberTech Pro installer and Trex-certified contractor, we can guide you through product choices and help you select quality materials that suit your home and design.
PVC Decking
PVC decking is another low-maintenance option for Forest Hill properties. It handles moisture and temperature changes well, making it worth considering for shaded areas, elevated structures or decks that see frequent use. Available styles can complement both traditional homes and more modern renovations. We’ll walk you through the options, discuss the practical differences and help you choose a product that suits your project and budget.
Pressure-Treated Wood and Cedar
Pressure-treated wood is often a more affordable choice for homeowners who prefer a natural timber appearance. Cedar provides a warmer colour and distinctive grain, along with natural resistance to rot and insects. Both materials weather over time and need regular care to maintain their appearance. We’ll explain the differences in upfront cost, staining and sealing requirements so you can make an informed decision.
Custom Options for Your Forest Hill Deck
The right details can turn a basic deck into an outdoor living space that feels like a natural extension of your home. Depending on your layout and deck size, we can plan features such as built-in seating, privacy screens, railings, stairs and lighting. These choices affect how you move through the space, how much room you have for furniture and how comfortably you can use the deck.
For example, built-in seating may make better use of a smaller platform, while stairs can improve access between an elevated deck and the yard. Privacy screens create a more sheltered, private area, and well-placed lighting extends how late into the evening you can use the space. We’ll help you decide which features suit your property and budget. If you’re planning a broader backyard project, explore our outdoor living spaces to see how your deck can fit into the overall design.
Deck Permits and the Ontario Building Code
Forest Hill deck projects must meet the Ontario Building Code and applicable City of Toronto requirements. A building permit may be required when a deck attaches to the house or sits more than 0.6 m (24 in) above grade. The deck’s height, size and attachment all affect the requirements, so it’s worth checking before construction begins.
Kerta manages permit-related requirements as part of the project where applicable, helping you understand the process and the information needed. Approval depends on your specific design and property, and we cannot guarantee an approval outcome. Review the City of Toronto’s deck and porch permit guide and discuss any project-specific limitations with us before work begins.
