Pressure-treated wood is a cost-effective wood that’s protected against mold, fungi, termites, moisture, and rot. For those living in Minnetonka, this means your deck is naturally protected against snow, rain, and Drywood termites.

Yes. You will need a building permit to construct a deck in Minnetonka. You can apply for permits online at the City of Minnetonka website. Your deck installer may be able to help expedite your permit application.

Decks increase the value of your property significantly. In fact, many homeowners recoup the entire cost of their deck when they sell their homes. In some cases, you can actually make money building a deck on your property.

Besides the cosmetic differences between the two materials, natural wood provides you with a nice finish and look to your deck. Additionally, prices come at a benefit, averaging a lower cost than composite. While natural wood’s cost is unmatched alongside its looks, natural wood requires a stain and sealant in order to last longer and be consistently maintained after a set number of years in order to maintain its longevity.

Composite wood differs from natural wood in its durability, requiring little to no management. Composite wood is made of plastic and wood fibers that often mimic the fine grains of wood. While more durable than natural wood, composite is more often than not costly. Additionally, some may prefer the look of natural wood opposed to the matte plastic look of composite.

For a long lasting deck, it is important to consider a deck stain and sealant in one that will allow your deck to last the harsh weather.

Minnesota has one of the highest rates of failures for DIYers applying deck stain and sealants due to the quick temperature changes, putting stress on the stain and sealant when curing. Remember to contact a professional to apply these products to ensure it is done correctly.
