Deck Builder in Wyckoff, NJ
Complete outdoor-living builds for Wyckoff's generous lots — deck, enclosure and seating planned as one project instead of three afterthoughts.
Deck Building in Wyckoff, New Jersey
Wyckoff yards have the two ingredients that make outdoor projects worth doing properly: space and intent. Lots here are generous, homes are kept well, and when a family decides to build, they usually mean the full picture — a composite deck sized for real entertaining, a Patio Enclosure Construction room to escape the afternoon sun and the bugs, sometimes lighting and built-in seating from day one.
Our job is to make those pieces one design instead of a sequence of purchases. The deck frames for the room it will carry; the seating respects the sight lines the deck creates; the stairs land where the yard's traffic actually wants to go. Wyckoff rewards that kind of planning — Census data puts owner-occupancy above ninety percent here, the kind of number that confirms these are houses people stay in.
Wyckoff projects often replace a deck the house outgrew rather than one that failed. The family got bigger, the entertaining got real, and the original platform — fine in its day — is two sizes too small. That is a happier starting point than rot, and it deserves a design conversation, not a like-for-like quote.

What Wyckoff Homeowners Hire Us For
The projects we quote most often in Wyckoff — each one priced and planned for how homes here are actually built.
Composite Decks
The Wyckoff standard: Trex, TimberTech and AZEK platforms sized for entertaining, installed to the manufacturer's spec so the decades-long material warranty stays enforceable. Boards chosen once, maintained with a hose.
Patio Enclosure Construction
Open Wyckoff lots get strong western sun. A screened room built as a structure first — roof, posts on framing sized for it, flashed at the house — then finished for looks turns the brightest hours into the best ones.
Deck Replacement
For the deck the house outgrew: the family got bigger, the entertaining got real, and the original platform is two sizes too small. We rebuild from the footings, framed for a crowd and sized for the yard.
Materials Wyckoff Homeowners Choose
What actually holds up on Wyckoff lots — and why we quote it.
- Premium capped composite
- On entertain-scale decks the surface takes traffic, furniture and weather year-round. Premium boards keep their color and finish through all of it.
- Snow-rated roof framing
- For the enclosure overhead, posts and beams sized to the winter load and flashed into the house. Sized to the engineering, not the catalog picture.
- Built-in seating framing
- Benches framed into the deck instead of a wall of chairs — on a party-scale platform they seat a crowd and keep sight lines open.
Before You Build
Permits, Planning & Site Conditions in Wyckoff
How we plan a complete Wyckoff outdoor project.
Wyckoff projects run through the township's Building, Zoning & Property Maintenance Department under New Jersey's Uniform Construction Code. Decks are named directly in the fee schedule — Code § 108-3(b) prices deck permits at $25 per $1,000 of estimated project cost, with a $100 minimum — and the department states a 20-working-day review window once your application is in. Open decks and roofed enclosures each have their own review lanes — we know which is which and file accordingly, then meet every inspection.
One design, phased if needed
Even when budget phases the work across seasons, the drawing is singular: deck framed for the future enclosure, seating aligned with the finished composition. Nothing built first blocks what comes second.
Sun mapping
Wide lots mean real sun exposure. We map where afternoon light lands before placing the dining zone and the screened room — shade in the right place is the cheapest comfort a design can buy.
Entertaining loads
A party is a live load. Decks meant for gatherings get framed for people-density, not furniture-density — joist spacing and beam sizing reflect how the space will actually be used.
Drainage decides coverage
Wyckoff's Zoning Code, Chapter 186, only counts a deck toward building coverage if it blocks free drainage of rainwater to the ground underneath — gapped, permeable decking can stay outside the township's 20% coverage cap (10% in the RA-25 and R-15 zones) that a solid patio would not.
What we plan around in Wyckoff
- Western sun exposure on open lots
- Coordinating deck, enclosure and seating as one composition
- Party-scale live loads that demand honest framing
- Township tree-removal permits when a deck's footprint or access route calls for clearing
Reviews from Wyckoff Homeowners
“House of Decks LLC built our new porch, and I’d hire them again. During the work, the crew answered my questions and made a helpful adjustment when I pointed out something I wanted handled differently. They were respectful around the house and kept the area organized. The porch has a sturdy, finished look without feeling too elaborate. I’m very satisfied with how everything turned out.”

“They did a great job building our new fence and were a really good crew to work with”
Olivia
“House of Decks LLC replaced our old deck. I wanted a sturdy space that looked neat and would be comfortable to use. The finished deck is solid and clean, and the simple look works well behind the house. Once the crew was done, there was very little for us to tidy afterward. I’m really pleased with the result. This was a hardworking, dependable crew to have on the job”
Jeremy Lawrence
“The new elevated deck and stairs came out even better than I expected. Before work started, Stiljano clearly explained what they planned to do, and he answered my questions so I knew what was happening. The crew was respectful around the house and pleasant to have around while they worked. They worked carefully, and the finished gray decking with white railings looks sharp beside the brick house. The stairs feel solid, and the whole deck has a clean, finished look. I’d call Stiljano and the crew again when I have another project.”
Raquel
“I wanted a contractor who would listen to what we had in mind and make sensible suggestions for our raised deck installation. The team did that without turning the decision into a sales pitch. They explained the available choices in plain language, which made it easier for me to choose the right direction. I also liked that they paid attention to the details we cared about instead of treating the job like a routine order. The finished gray deck with white railing looks clean and suits our house well, but their attitude was what convinced me that choosing them was the right decision in the end.”

“Found these guys online while looking for someone to build our raised deck. The first conversation went well, so we decided to go ahead with them. Their schedule worked with ours, and we didn’t have to be home for every visit, which helped a lot. The crew was polite and treated our home respectfully while they were here. We’re really happy with how the deck turned out. It looks good against the house without being overdone. From that first conversation through the installation, they were easy to deal with. Glad we found them, and a big thank you to the crew for the work they put in”
Besati Lionurs
“Very happy with the quality of work and punctuality. Stiljano was a pleasure to work with. Definitely recommend to anyone in need of a deck contractor”
Embro Dhuli
“Seeing the finished deck was a great feeling. House of Decks LLC built a raised deck with multiple levels, stairs and railings that give the side of our home a completely different look. The white posts and black balusters stand out against the brown decking. The space feels much more inviting now, and that’s what I’d tell anyone considering this kind of work”
Stacy Williams
“The work done by House of Decks LLC was super when it came to replacing our old deck. Stiljano and his team is a very professional person who communicates well and explains everything from the start. His crew worked fast and left the area clean after all the small details were taken care of.The work done looks wonderful, and the deck is really strong. It was fair price for what we got, and everything went according to our plans. I definitely recommend House of Decks LLC for a deck replacement”
Nicole Gomez
“House of Decks LLC performed a perfect installation of a new deck at our residence in Franklin Lakes, NJ. Both Stiljano and his crew were highly responsible and professional in their work. All aspects of their service were explained to us in detail, including the progress of the work and the cost of services, which was quite reasonable and without any surprises. The new deck made of composite material and white railings looks perfect, and everything seems sturdy and quality. Our backyard is transformed into a new space after that.”
Shelia Jones

“We had House of Decks LLC build our new deck in Fair Lawn and we’re really happy with how it turned out.

The crew did a great job from start to finish. Definitely recommend House of Decks LLC for anyone looking to build or replace a deck in the Fair Lawn area.”
Joshua Samford

“Our old outdoor space wasn’t working well for us, so we decided to have a composite deck built in Wayne. The finished deck gives us a much nicer place to spend time, and I’m very happy with how it turned out. The crew did a great job.”
Dana Golliday
“House of Decks LLC has done a wonderful job with our new deck installation. The team was relaxed, on time, and worked really well to leave little clean up at all. The end result is a sturdy and beautiful deck that I am truly happy with”
Orlando Valdez
“The job that was done by House of Decks LLC for our new deck was really good. They started by removing the old deck and then assisted us in choosing a layout and material options, explaining everything before beginning the process. Their workers arrived on schedule, were fast at working and kept our backyard clean. The end result is a very solid deck with straight boards and railings, which has greatly improved the backyard area. We are really pleased with their work and would recommend them for any deck installation. Thank you guys!”

Frequently Asked Questions
The questions homeowners ask us at almost every estimate.
Can we phase a big Wyckoff project across two seasons?
Yes, and we design for it explicitly. The full composition gets drawn once; construction phases along sensible seams — deck this year, the screened room next. Framing installed in phase one already carries phase two, so nothing gets rebuilt.
What makes a deck good for entertaining?
Zones and flow: a dining area out of the door's traffic line, a grill station with landing space, gathering room that does not bottleneck at the stairs — and framing sized for a crowd, because thirty people is a structural event, not just a social one.
Screens or glass over the deck?
Different calendars. Screen walls under a solid roof give airflow, shade and bug-free June evenings; windowed walls stretch use into March and November. Both are roofed structures with deeper review and bigger loads than the deck — and we frame the roof for the windows even if screens come first.
Composite color and pattern choices — how do we decide?
Samples on your actual site, in your actual light. Boards read differently against every house color and sun exposure, so we leave samples for a week and decide outdoors. Two-tone borders and breaker boards get drawn in the plan, not improvised on install day.
Do enclosures need permits in Wyckoff?
Yes — a roofed enclosure is reviewed as a structure, with drawings and inspections beyond the open deck's. We confirm what applies to your lot before building, as part of the same project paperwork as the deck.
