New decks · Cumming, GA
Building a deck in Cumming
Ready for a Cumming deck you will actually use?
A new deck in Cumming adds usable living space without moving walls. B&T builds wood, composite and mixed-material decks with stairs and railings, and the person who walks your yard and writes the estimate is the same person running the crew.
On rolling Cumming lots, a deck often sits well above grade, so footings, stairs and railings need as much attention as the surface boards.
Cumming sits along the GA-400 corridor north of Atlanta, with a mix of older in-town homes, 1990s and 2000s subdivisions and newer master-planned communities such as Windermere, Vickery and Polo Golf & Country Club. Outdoor living space is a big part of what homeowners there ask for.
Windermere and Vickery are both within our Cumming service area, and we hold every deck to the same standard: a frame built to last, with boards and railing chosen to suit the house.

From bare ground to finished deck
A new deck, built to fit your yard
Look closely at these actual B&T photos and you will see more than finished surfaces. Some catch decks mid-build, because footings, framing and the house connection are where a deck earns its strength.

Price & estimate
What a new deck costs in Cumming
The cost of a new deck in Cumming depends on a handful of things you can see from the yard: how big it is, how high it sits off the ground, how much framing it needs, which boards go on top, and how many stairs and railing sections it has. Cost varies widely from one deck to the next, because a low platform deck and a two-level deck with stairs are very different jobs.
What is included
What a new deck project covers
- Help choosing board color and railing style that suit the house
- A walk-through of the finished deck with the owner
- Decking in pressure-treated wood or composite, your choice
- Walking the yard and measuring the actual height and slope
Signs to look for
Is it time for a new deck?
A finished plan is not a prerequisite. See anything below that you recognize? Photos are enough for us to start talking about what could work.
- The house is being sold or refinished and outdoor space would add real value
- You are planning an outdoor kitchen or grill area and need a stable surface for it
- Your yard slopes and the usable flat space is limited
- An old deck is beyond saving and you want a different size or shape
North Georgia · terrain & local rules
Local conditions in Cumming
Cumming is North Georgia Piedmont country: rolling hills, wooded parcels and, toward the east, properties influenced by Lake Lanier. Lots range from smaller in-town parcels to larger wooded or lake-adjacent ones.
Setbacks, drainage and tree rules can affect where a deck is allowed to go, and properties near streams or the lake can have additional limits. We look at your parcel before the estimate is written.
For many Cumming homeowners, a deck replacement is a chance to rethink the layout for entertaining and move to lower-maintenance composite.
Areas you may know in Cumming include Windermere, Vickery, Polo Golf & Country Club and downtown Cumming. Main routes through the area include GA-400, Highway 20, Bethelview Road and Buford Dam Road.
Materials & options
Composite or pressure-treated wood: choosing the boards
Most homeowners end up choosing between two paths. Wood decking is the lower-cost option and can be stained or left to weather, but it is more work to keep up. Composite decking is a higher up-front investment with less maintenance and a more consistent look, and it is available in a range of colors. Either way, the frame underneath should be built with the same care, and we price both versions when you ask.

Straight answers · Cumming, GA
Who builds decks in Cumming, and what does it involve?
Short answer: Absolutely. Whether it is near Windermere, near Vickery or elsewhere in Cumming, we can build you a new deck in wood or composite. Breno stands in your yard, checks the layout and discusses stairs, rails and what the boards will be made of. Everything he finds goes into an estimate you pay nothing for. Message (470) 863-3707 with a picture and you will have a response that day.
How much does deck building cost in Cumming?
Expect the cost of a new deck to vary quite a bit from one yard to the next. Where yours lands depends on the dimensions, the height, the decking you pick, and how many steps and rail sections it needs. We do not give a flat price over the phone. Once we have been to the yard, you receive an estimate at no cost that spells out the work.
I am looking for a deck builder near me in Cumming. Does B&T serve my address?
A new deck starts with a short visit to the yard, and those visits are spread across our whole service area. You do not have to be in Cumming proper; send us your address and we will tell you if it is in our area. No obligation: the first look at your photos is free.
Who handles permits for a new deck in Cumming?
A brand-new deck may need a permit and an inspection, so confirm the requirements with your county or city, and we will help you sort it out. The right office can depend on whether your address is inside the city limits, so confirm that with the city or county. We will help you find out what applies to your project. You will not be left to figure out the paperwork alone.
Should I choose composite or pressure-treated wood for my deck in Cumming?
Pressure-treated wood costs less up front but needs regular cleaning and sealing. Composite costs more up front and takes much less upkeep. A hybrid, with a treated frame and composite boards, is common. Tell us your budget and how much maintenance you want, and we can price both.
How long does it take to build a deck in Cumming?
It depends on the size, the design, the materials and the weather, so we give you an expected schedule with the written estimate instead of guessing over the phone. Rain and wet ground can slow footings and framing.
Is B&T's deck work under warranty?
We will answer that in writing, and the right moment to ask is when you request the estimate, which is before you commit to anything. Boards and railing made of composite, such as those from Trex or TimberTech, come with manufacturer warranties that vary from one product to the next. Once you pick a material, we send you to its terms.
Does my Cumming HOA need to approve a new deck?
A new deck is one of the changes an association may want to see on paper before anything is built. HOA communities are common in Cumming's subdivision-heavy market. If yours has architectural review, tell us at the start so plans and approval fit the timeline. Mention it at the first call and we will plan around it.
Can you build on a sloped lot?
Yes. Slopes are normal in North Georgia, and we handle them with taller posts, extra footings or a stepped design instead of one flat run. Walking the yard in person is how the estimate reflects your actual slope.
Do I need railings, and how high do they have to be?
A deck that is tall enough to be a fall hazard may need a guard, and your local code sets the details, so confirm them with your county or city. We draw railing and stairs into every deck plan we write, so you will see them in the estimate.
How does the terrain in Cumming affect a new deck?
Slope, shade and soil decide how high a new deck sits and how many footings it needs. Cumming is North Georgia Piedmont country: rolling hills, wooded parcels and, toward the east, properties influenced by Lake Lanier. A quick look at the grade saves surprises later.

Yes. B&T Properties builds new wood and composite decks for Cumming homeowners, from footings and framing to railing and stairs. Our work carries a one-year workmanship warranty, and the estimate is free and in writing. Text or call (470) 863-3707.
