Our Materials
Composite, Wood, Cedar & Custom Decking Options
Every deck we build is matched to your lifestyle, maintenance preference, and budget. We work with all major decking materials.
Composite Decking
Low-maintenance and built to last. Composite boards like Trex and TimberTech resist fading, staining, and splintering — no annual staining required.
Cedar & Hardwood
Naturally resistant to rot and insects, cedar and hardwood decks bring warmth and character that composite can't replicate.
Pressure-Treated Wood
The most affordable decking option and a DMV staple. Properly sealed and maintained, pressure-treated decks deliver decades of solid performance.
Multi-Level & Custom Builds
Got a sloped yard or a complex vision? We design and build multi-level decks, wraparound decks, and fully custom configurations from the ground up.
Golden Hands Landscaping is a local deck builder serving Northern Virginia, DC, and Maryland homeowners who want outdoor spaces built to last. Whether you need a simple ground-level platform or a custom multi-level deck with built-in seating, we handle everything from design and permitting to final cleanup.
Every deck starts with proper structural framing, correctly spaced joists, and footings set to local frost depth requirements — the foundation work that separates a deck that holds up for 25 years from one that doesn't make it to 10.
Every project starts with a free on-site estimate. We assess your yard, walk you through your material options, and give you a clear price — no vague ballparks, no surprises at the end.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
We work with all major decking materials including composite boards (Trex, TimberTech), pressure-treated wood, cedar, and hardwood. During your consultation we'll walk you through the pros, cons, and price differences so you can choose the right material for your project and budget.
-
Most deck installations in Northern Virginia and Maryland range from $8,000 to $30,000+ depending on size, material, and design complexity. A basic ground-level pressure-treated deck sits at the lower end; a custom multi-level composite deck with built-in features runs higher. We provide a detailed, itemized quote after your free on-site estimate — no vague ballparks.
-
Most deck builds take 1–2 weeks from start to finish depending on size and complexity. We'll give you a clear timeline before we break ground.
-
Permit requirements vary by jurisdiction and project scope. We'll advise you during the estimate process on whether your project requires a permit and can assist with paperwork where applicable.
-
Composite decking requires virtually no maintenance — no staining, sealing, or sanding. Wood decking costs less upfront but requires regular maintenance to prevent rot and splintering. In the DMV's humid summers and freeze-thaw winters, composite tends to outperform wood over the long run for homeowners who want low maintenance.
-
Yes. Sloped lots are common across Northern Virginia and Maryland and we design around them. This often means a raised or multi-level structure with proper footings — we'll assess your yard during the on-site estimate and design accordingly.
-
Yes. We can incorporate built-in benches, planters, pergolas, privacy screens, and lighting into your deck design. These are best discussed at the estimate stage so we can factor them into the structural plan from the start.
