What services does Extreme Decks Miami offer?

Extreme Decks Miami provides premium outdoor construction services throughout Miami. We build tropical hardwood decks, composite decks, pool decks, rooftop decks, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, fences, privacy walls, dock decking, and custom outdoor living structures. We also install wood and composite cladding for exterior ceilings and walls.

We install several high-quality materials including:

  • Tropical hardwoods such as Ipe, Cumaru, Jatoba, and Tigerwood
  • Composite and PVC decking from top manufacturers
  • Marine-grade decking for waterfront areas
  • Hardwood and composite cladding for exterior surfaces.

     

We help you select the best material for Miami’s heat, humidity, and coastal conditions.

Why are tropical hardwoods ideal for Miami?

Miami’s climate is hot, humid, and close to the ocean. Tropical hardwoods are naturally resistant to moisture, insects, mold, and salt air, which makes them a strong and long-lasting choice for outdoor structures.

A hardwood deck can last between 25 and 50 years when installed correctly. Ipe and Cumaru offer some of the longest lifespans among outdoor building materials.

Hardwood decks require minimal structural maintenance. If you want the wood to stay rich and brown, you can apply oil once or twice per year. If you prefer the silver aged look, you can skip the oiling and simply clean the deck when needed.

Do you install composite and PVC decking?

Yes. Extreme Decks Miami installs advanced composite and PVC decking that performs extremely well in Miami’s sun and moisture. These materials offer strong fade resistance and require very little ongoing care.

Both options work well.

  • Hardwood gives you unmatched natural beauty and high strength.
  • Composite provides consistent color and a very low maintenance option.

We can help you choose the best material based on your goals and lifestyle.

Do you build pergolas and shade structures?

Yes. We design and build custom pergolas using hardwood or composite materials. Pergolas are very popular in Miami because they add shade, style, and comfort to outdoor areas.

Yes. We build outdoor kitchen structures, BBQ platforms, privacy features, wall cladding, deck platforms, and rooftop entertainment areas. We create complete outdoor living environments suited for Miami’s lifestyle.

Yes. We install decking solutions for docks, seawall walkways, waterfront decks, and marina platforms. We use materials that can handle saltwater exposure and intense sun.

Do you offer free consultations?

Yes. We provide free onsite or virtual consultations to review your space, discuss your ideas, recommend materials, and explain the project process.

Most decks and pergolas take between 2 and 4 weeks after construction begins. Larger or more complex outdoor living projects may require additional time.

Yes. We frequently collaborate with architects, builders, interior designers, and general contractors in Miami to complete luxury outdoor projects.

How much does a hardwood or composite deck cost in Miami?

Costs depend on the size of the project, the type of material, elevation, design, and site conditions. Tropical hardwood decks are considered premium builds. Composite decking offers options at different price levels. We provide a detailed estimate after reviewing your property.

Yes. If your deck, pergola, or outdoor structure requires a permit, we handle the process. Miami often requires permits for structural and waterfront projects, so we guide you through each step.
