From new wood and composite builds to full deck replacements, Core Structures Inc. designs and constructs custom decks built to last across Lehigh County and Eastern Pennsylvania. Whether you're starting from scratch or rebuilding, we handle the project from first conversation to final walkthrough.
Classic, natural-looking wood construction using cedar, pressure-treated lumber, or hardwood species. Wood decks offer a timeless aesthetic and are a cost-effective starting point for most residential builds.
Low-maintenance composite materials engineered to resist fading, staining, and moisture — no sanding, sealing, or painting required. Composite decks are built for longevity and come in a wide range of colors and textures to match your home's exterior.
Aging or structurally compromised decks don't always need a patch — sometimes a full rebuild is the smarter investment. We assess existing decks, identify what's salvageable, and replace the rest with materials built to last. Before-and-after work is a specialty of ours.
Every deck project with Core Structures starts with a conversation — not a sales pitch. We walk the property, take measurements, and listen to how you actually use your outdoor space before putting anything on paper. From there, our process moves through four clear phases:
Consultation. We meet on-site to discuss layout, materials, intended use, and budget. No guesswork — just a direct conversation with the people who will be building your deck.
Design. Our team develops a custom layout sized for your home, incorporating your preferred decking material, railing style, stair placement, and any special features like built-in benches or lighting prep.
Permitting. Where required, we assist with permit applications and coordinate with the local township so the project stays on the right side of local codes from day one.
Construction. Our crew handles all framing, decking, railing, finish work, and concrete footings on-site.
With over 90 years of combined construction experience and 550+ completed projects, Core Structures Inc. has built a reputation across Eastern Pennsylvania as a contractor that shows up, communicates, and delivers. Deck projects are no exception. Our team meets clients on-site — not just to measure, but to understand how the space will be used. We source quality materials, and build to code. When you choose Core Structures for your deck project, you're working with a crew that takes pride in what it builds. Quality is at our Core.
