Lake Bonavista, Calgary SE

Decks for Lake Bonavista's Large Lots

Lake Bonavista was developed from the late 1960s around a man-made lake in southeast Calgary, east of Macleod Trail and close to Fish Creek Provincial Park. The homes are mainly bungalows, split-levels and two-storeys on lots that are bigger than most newer communities offer.

Many of these homes are being renovated by a second or third owner, and the deck is often part of that. With a large yard there is room to do it properly: space for a table, a seating area, and stairs that lead naturally down to the lawn.

Local Conditions

What Decks in Lake Bonavista Need

Replacing original decks

Decks that date from the 1970s and 1980s are usually past repair. We remove them and rebuild in composite or PVC on a new foundation.

Sized for the yard

A bigger lot can take a bigger deck. We help you plan zones for dining, lounging and a hot tub if you want one.

Part of a renovation

If you are updating the home, we match board and railing colours to the new exterior and schedule the build around your other trades.

Wes and his team put in long days to complete my deck in a timely manner and inclement weather. The deck looks great, love the product they used and especially the access door for storage. Friendly, professional and skilled.

Amazingly fast, on time and definitely hard working. Able to more than meet my unique needs with limited access in an older property and with site issues. Costs were super affordable. Highly recommend. A++++
