Deck Builder in South Calgary

South Calgary covers a lot of ground, from 1970s communities along Fish Creek to brand new streets at the city's southern edge. Serenity Decks builds and replaces composite and PVC decks across all of it.

Decks Across the South End of Calgary

When most people say south Calgary they mean the communities on either side of Fish Creek Provincial Park: Canyon Meadows, Midnapore, Sundance, Shawnessy, Somerset, Evergreen, Bridlewood and Woodbine, and newer areas like Silverado, Chaparral, Walden and Legacy.

There is also an inner-city community officially named South Calgary, beside Marda Loop in the southwest. We build there too. Wherever you are in the south, the process is the same: a free on-site consultation, a fixed written price and no deposit.

What Decks in South Calgary Need

Replacing 1970s and 1980s decks

The older south communities are full of original wood decks that are due for replacement. We rebuild them in composite or PVC.

Homes backing onto green space

Many south Calgary lots back onto Fish Creek, a ridge or a pathway. A raised deck with glass railing makes the most of that outlook.

New-community first decks

At the south edge of the city we build first decks on new homes, including the permit for any deck over 0.6 m.

Permits

Deck Permits in South Calgary

South Calgary is inside Calgary city limits, so deck permits go through the City of Calgary. These are the rules that most often apply. We confirm them for your lot and prepare the application for you.

  • •A building permit is needed for any covered deck, and for an uncovered deck more than 0.6 m (2 ft) above grade at any point.
  • •A development permit may also be needed if the deck is at the front of the home, closer than 1.2 m to a side property line, or closer than 6 m to the rear property line.

We hired Wes to build a custom deck, and the quality of work was outstanding. He communicated clearly from start to finish, offered helpful design suggestions, and maintained a clean worksite. The finished deck is sturdy, beautiful, and exactly what we envisioned.

Wes and his crew rebuilt our deck while we were recently away on holidays, during which time they had complete access to our house. We returned to find an amazing new deck and the house spotless. Can't say enough about the quality of the work, definitely the A Team!

Wes has been great to work with. Came out and prepared a detailed estimate, provided recommendations for product and references for work he'd done in the area. His crew tore down our old deck and built new one in 2 days. We love our new deck and the price was good too.
