Most of the requests that land here fall into a handful of jobs. If yours is on this list, there is already a page with scope, materials and pricing detail for McAllen:

• Composite Decking (Trex & TimberTech) — Composite decking is the default choice for most McAllen backyards, because it will not splinter, will not need a stain every second spring, and does not feed the subterranean termites that never go dormant in Hidalgo County. We install capped composite in the Trex and TimberTech lines over a full ground-contact pressure-treated substructure, using hidden clip fasteners in grooved boards so the finished surface has no screw holes collecting water and grit.
• PVC & Cellular Decking — Cellular PVC decking contains no wood flour whatsoever, which makes it the most rot-proof and termite-proof surface you can walk on in the Rio Grande Valley. We install PVC board in the Azek and TimberTech lines on pool surrounds, spa decks, second-story decks over living space, and any job where a client wants the lowest-maintenance product available rather than the least expensive one.
• Cedar Decks — Cedar decks stay cooler underfoot than any synthetic board, which is why western red cedar is still the right answer for a McAllen deck that gets full afternoon sun and no roof over it. We build in clear and select-grade cedar with tight vertical grain, fastened with stainless steel screws, on a ground-contact pressure-treated substructure that never depends on the cedar for its structural life.
• Redwood Decks — Redwood decking is the premium natural-wood surface we build in McAllen, and clear all-heart redwood is harder, denser and more dimensionally stable than western red cedar while staying just as cool underfoot. We use it where the wood itself is the point: exposed decks, wrapped posts, built-in benches and visible fascia, always fastened with stainless steel over a pressure-treated substructure.
• Pressure-Treated Pine Decks — Pressure-treated southern yellow pine is the least expensive way to get a structurally sound deck in McAllen, and it is what we frame every deck with regardless of what you walk on. For the surface as well, treated pine is an honest choice when budget is the constraint, provided it is ground-contact rated, fastened with hot-dipped or stainless hardware, and given a stain schedule you will actually keep.
• Ipe & Tropical Hardwood Decks — Ipe decking is the hardest, densest and longest-lasting wood surface available, and an ipe deck built properly in McAllen will outlast the house it is attached to. We install ipe and related tropical hardwoods — cumaru, garapa, and thermally modified species — with stainless hidden clips or plugged stainless face screws, and we quote the labor honestly because this material is genuinely difficult to work.

Rough measurements or square footage, photos of the area from a few angles, any material or finish you already have in mind, and your target timeline. None of it is required, but it makes the first free estimate far more accurate.
