Deck Builders Wilmington NC
Custom wood and composite decks built to withstand coastal weather. 100+ decks built with hurricane-rated construction and premium materials.
Your deck should be an extension of your home — a place where you relax, entertain, and enjoy Wilmington's beautiful weather. At Swanson Construction, we build decks with materials and techniques specifically chosen to resist salt air, humidity, and intense sun. Every deck is engineered to exceed local building codes for hurricane season. In 2026, Wilmington homeowners are choosing composite decking over wood at a 3-to-1 ratio for its zero-maintenance durability in our coastal climate — and with 100+ decks built, we've seen firsthand which materials stand up to decades of salt air and Carolina storms.
