We build and restore outdoor structures for Philadelphia homeowners: decks, patios, retaining walls, paving, courtyards, driveways, and older deck replacements.

01

CUSTOM DECK CONSTRUCTION

Ground-level, elevated, and multi-level decks in pressure-treated lumber, composite decking such as Trex, TimberTech, Fiberon, and hardwood options. Built with properly sized footings below Philadelphia frost depth.
02

CONCRETE PATIOS

Standard broom finish, exposed aggregate, stamped concrete, colored concrete, control joints, proper mix design, and penetrating sealer for Philadelphia freeze-thaw cycles.
03

RETAINING WALLS

Concrete block, natural stone, and poured concrete retaining walls with gravel backfill and perforated drain pipe to prevent hydrostatic pressure and premature failure.
04

PAVING. DRIVEWAYS & WALKWAYS

Paving stone, concrete, asphalt, and brick paving for driveways, walkways, front stoops, rear courtyards, and tight Philadelphia row home yards.
05

DECK REPAIR & REPLACEMENT

Structural deck assessments, ledger board repair, joist replacement, footing corrections, railing upgrades, and full replacement when older framing is unsafe.

DECKS & PATIOS IN PHILADELPHIA
CLIMATE, PERMITS & MATERIALS

Philadelphia’s outdoor structures need to handle freeze-thaw cycles, moisture, summer heat, tight row home access, drainage, and L&I permit requirements. This section gives homeowners the local context before they build.
CLIMATE

WHY MATERIAL CHOICE MATTERS

Freeze-thaw cycles cause untreated wood to crack and concrete to spall when water freezes inside surface pores. Composite decking, air-entrained concrete, sealing, drainage, and ventilation help outdoor structures last longer.
PERMITS

PHILADELPHIA L&I RULES FOR DECKS & PATIOS

Decks attached to the house or 30 inches or more above grade usually require a building permit. Retaining walls over 4 feet require a permit and structural engineer stamp. We verify every requirement before construction.
DRAINAGE

PATIO, PAVER & RETAINING WALL DRAINAGE

Patios need slope, control joints, and sealers. Retaining walls need gravel backfill and perforated pipe to reduce hydrostatic pressure. Pavers can help reduce runoff in tight Philadelphia yards.
SAFETY

OLDER DECK REPAIR & REPLACEMENT

Many older decks have rotted ledger boards, shifted footings, and decayed joists. A compromised ledger is a serious safety hazard, so every deck repair starts with a structural assessment.

Deck construction in Philadelphia ranges from $8,000–$15,000 for a basic ground-level pressure-treated deck to $15,000–$30,000 for a composite elevated deck and $25,000–$55,000 for a multi-level deck. Material choice significantly affects cost. Titan and Sun Construction LLC provides free written estimates for deck projects in Philadelphia and surrounding counties.

Yes, in most cases. Philadelphia requires a building permit for decks attached to the house and for decks 30 inches or more above grade. Ground-level, detached decks under 200 square feet may not require a permit, but we always verify with L&I before construction.

Composite decking from brands like Trex, TimberTech, or Fiberon is our top recommendation because it withstands freeze-thaw cycles, summer heat, rainfall, rotting, splintering, and fading with very low maintenance.

Absolutely. Small rear yard patios are one of our most common projects in Philadelphia. Many row homes have rear yards of 200–600 square feet, enough for seating, grilling space, and container planting.

We use footings below the 36-inch frost depth, properly sized structural members, composite or sealed pressure-treated lumber, galvanized or stainless fasteners, and drainage gaps between decking boards to prevent pooling and freezing.
