Need a deck builder in Mississauga. Any recommendation?
I'm looking for a deck builder in Mississauga. Any recommendations? I tired a few but need more builders to consider. It will be a low deck around ~18" from grade, 16ftx16ft square, full pergola, wrap around stair and no railing. I'm 80% leaning towards pressure treated.
I had a a shortlist of 8 companies after sorting through reviews, but my list is getting even shorter as pressure treated does not seem popular.

- So far two companies have told me they build only cedar or composite. I'll skip cedar but could opt for composite. Issue is I'm not yet fully convinced since the quotes are double pressure treated.
- The third company has also told me they mostly build cedar or composite but will come and take a look...might be an up sell courtesy visit. Earliest build date will be sometime in the fall which I can live with.
- The fourth company told me I need a permit to build a deck and I should apply for it then call them back to give a quote. They only knew the size as 200+ sq ft and did not ask details of what I planned to build so I figured it was a nice way to tell me "not interested". From looking though my city website my deck does look like it needs a permit because it is less than 2ft from grate. A pergola also does not need a permit because the top is not considered a roof. Seem only bylaws apply.
- The fifth company can build the spec above and will come to take a look this week.
- Wating to hear back from #6
- #7 and 8 are Lowes and Homedepot which I am waiting to bear back from. I suspect will be overpriced but at least they are an option for pressure treated.
