Pickering covers a lot of ground — from established South Pickering neighbourhoods near Frenchman’s Bay to the rapidly growing Seaton community in the north. The Setting Stone Company builds custom decks and fences across both, priced fairly, with a free on-site quote before you commit to anything.

Affordable shouldn’t mean risky. We keep our decks and fences within reach for Pickering homeowners by giving you a clear, itemized quote up front — no inflated first offer designed to be “negotiated down,” no vague allowances that balloon once work starts. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying for before we break ground, and we’ll walk you through where wood saves you money upfront and where composite saves you money over time, so you can pick what actually fits your budget.

South Pickering and the newer Seaton community are almost like two different markets — established lots near the waterfront with mature landscaping already in place, versus brand-new Seaton properties starting from scratch. We build for both: restoring or replacing aging decks and fences on older South Pickering properties, and designing full backyard fencing and deck plans for new Seaton builds where nothing exists yet.
Local experience with Pickering-specific soil and grading conditions
Deck footings and fence posts set below the frost line so structures don't heave or lean
Built to local building codes and municipal permit requirements
We make it easy to bring your outdoor vision to life with a smooth, step-by-step process focused on quality, communication, and lasting results.
We visit your Pickering property, measure the space, and talk through what you actually want to use it for — before we talk materials or pricing.
You get an itemized quote showing wood vs. composite (or wood vs. vinyl fencing) costs side by side, so you're choosing based on real numbers, not guesswork.
Our crew builds it — footings, framing, decking, fencing — with no subcontracted labour and no shortcuts on what's below the surface.

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.
New Seaton properties often come with builder-set fencing guidelines in addition to City of Pickering bylaws, and neighbouring yards may not be fenced yet either, which affects sequencing and shared-boundary planning. We'll review your specific lot and any subdivision requirements during your free quote.
Most decks over a certain height or attached to the house require a building permit in Durham. 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.
Yes — a good portion of our Pickering work is replacing or repairing decks and fences on established South Pickering properties, where existing landscaping and mature trees often need to be worked around during construction.
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.
