Deck Building in Whittier, CA
Licensed general contractor, CSLB #1110475 (B and C-10). Free on-site consultation and a written scope before you commit.
Decks for Whittier homes
Decks in Whittier range from simple ground-level platforms in the flat southern neighborhoods to raised and hillside decks in East Whittier, where footings and drainage matter far more than the surface.
We build the structure first: footings sized for the soil, posts and beams sized for the load, and flashing at the house connection. Then comes the surface, chosen for how it will age in the sun and rain.
What matters in Whittier
Hillside decks
On slopes we use engineered footings and plan the drainage under and around the deck.
Attachment to the house
Most deck failures start at the ledger. We flash and fasten it correctly.
Waterproofing
Elevated decks over living space need a waterproof membrane. We install and detail it.
