Question 1

How much does a custom deck cost in Lynnwood, WA?

Accepted Answer

Custom deck pricing in Lynnwood typically ranges from $35–$95 per square foot depending on materials (cedar vs composite), size, height off the ground, railings, and built-in features. We provide a detailed written estimate after a free on-site consultation, and we offer 0% financing on approved credit.

Question 2

Do you handle Lynnwood and Snohomish County permits?

Accepted Answer

Yes. One Deck pulls all required permits and schedules inspections with the City of Lynnwood, Snohomish County, and surrounding jurisdictions (Edmonds, Mountlake Terrace, Mukilteo, Mill Creek). Permit handling is included in every deck build.

Question 3

Cedar vs composite decking — which is better for the Pacific Northwest?

Accepted Answer

Both perform well in the Pacific Northwest. Western Red Cedar is naturally rot- and insect-resistant with a classic look, but needs annual sealing. Composite (Trex, TimberTech) has a 25–50 year warranty, requires almost no maintenance, and is engineered for our wet winters. We help you weigh budget, look, and maintenance during your free consultation.

Question 4

How long does it take to build a deck?

Accepted Answer

Most residential decks in the Lynnwood area take 1–3 weeks of on-site work after permits are issued. Larger covered or multi-level builds can take 4–6 weeks. Total project timeline including design and permitting is typically 4–8 weeks from contract.

Question 5

Are you licensed and insured in Washington State?

Accepted Answer

Yes — One Deck is fully licensed, bonded, and insured in Washington State, and we carry workers' compensation coverage. We are also Trex Pro and TimberTech certified composite installers.
