Ajax has some of the most varied lot sizes in Durham Region — compact lots in the established south end near the waterfront, and larger backyards in the newer north Ajax subdivisions. We’ve built decks and fences on both, so we know how to make a smaller lakefront-area yard feel bigger with the right deck layout, and how to fence a larger north-end property without it feeling like a job half-done. Being minutes from Lake Ontario also means salt air and moisture exposure factor into material choices — something we account for in every quote.

Cost depends on size, material, and site conditions like grading or existing structure removal. Pressure-treated wood is the most affordable decking material upfront; composite costs more initially but needs far less maintenance over time. The only way to get an accurate number for your property is a free on-site quote — we don't give ballpark phone estimates because every yard is different.
It can. Properties closer to the waterfront deal with more moisture and, in some cases, salt air exposure, which affects how quickly untreated hardware corrodes and how often wood needs resealing. We use corrosion-resistant hardware on every build and can walk you through composite vs. wood trade-offs specific to your part of Ajax during your on-site quote.
Most decks over a certain height or attached to the house require a building permit in the town of Ajax. Fences typically don't need a permit but are subject to local bylaw height restrictions. We'll confirm what applies to your specific project before work begins.
es — whether you're in an older south Ajax neighbourhood with mixed fence styles or a newer subdivision with more uniform streetscapes, we'll help you choose a style and height that fits the neighbourhood and meets Ajax's bylaw requirements.
A well-built, properly maintained pressure-treated deck typically lasts 20 to 30 years in Ontario conditions. The lifespan comes down to whether the footings were set below the frost line — which is where we never cut cost, even on budget-conscious builds.
