Deck Builder Carolina Beach NC
Coastal-rated decking systems built to resist salt air corrosion, UV damage, and hurricane-force winds. 200+ decks built with stainless steel fasteners and hurricane-rated construction.
Building a deck in Carolina Beach means building for the coast — relentless salt air, intense UV exposure, tropical humidity, and the real possibility of hurricane-force winds. At Swanson Construction, we've built over 200 decks on Pleasure Island and throughout the Cape Fear region using composite materials, pressure-treated wood, and 316-grade stainless steel fasteners designed specifically for barrier island conditions. Every Carolina Beach deck we build includes proper ventilation, elevated framing where required by flood zone regulations, and hurricane-rated connections that meet or exceed local building codes.
What We Do
Pressure-Treated Wood Decks
Classic, budget-friendly decking built to last in Carolina Beach's demanding coastal environment with proper sealing.
Composite Decking (Trex)
Low-maintenance, moisture-resistant boards with a polymer shell that never needs staining or sealing in the salt air.
Premium Ipe & Hardwood
Exotic hardwoods with exceptional durability, natural beauty, and proven performance in coastal environments.
Multi-Level & Custom Designs
Elevated decks, wraparound porches, built-in seating, and multi-level designs for Carolina Beach's varied lot elevations.
Deck Repairs & Restoration
Structural repairs, board replacement, re-staining, and salt air damage restoration for aging Carolina Beach decks.
Hurricane-Rated Construction
Engineered connections, Simpson Strong-Tie hardware, and coastal-grade fasteners for storm-resistant deck systems.
