Why PDX Home Revival
We don't just build decks — we design them. Every project starts with a full design session so your deck integrates with your home's rooflines, siding, and architecture. It should look like it was always there.
Rain, moss, freezing temps — the Pacific Northwest is brutal on outdoor structures. We spec materials and flashing details specifically for Oregon's weather cycles, so your investment lasts 30+ years without warping, rotting, or fading.
No surprise change orders. No ghost-job contractors. You get a detailed written scope, a fixed timeline, and a dedicated project lead who answers your texts. We've done this 500+ times — the process is airtight.

Deck Materials Guide
The biggest decision you'll make. Here's our honest take on each option — what we'd recommend for different budgets, lifestyles, and Portland's specific climate.
AZEK, TimberTech, and Trex composite decking is our most popular recommendation. It looks like wood, requires almost zero maintenance, and holds up beautifully in Portland's wet winters. No sealing, no staining, no warping.
Price range vs. cedar
20–30% higher upfront, lower lifetime cost
Nothing looks or smells like real cedar. It's the PNW classic — naturally resistant to rot and insects, beautiful grain, and a warm character that composite can't fully replicate. Requires sealing every 2-3 years.
Price range
Most affordable natural wood option
Brazilian Ipe and similar hardwoods are among the hardest, densest woods on earth. They're virtually impervious to moisture, scratches, and insects. The look is unmatched — dark, rich, unmistakably premium.
Price range vs. cedar
2–3× cedar cost, lifetime investment

What Portland Homeowners Say
"PDX Home Revival came highly recommended by our neighbors and we're glad we listened. Our new deck is gorgeous and solid. Travis helped us design custom steps and they turned out perfectly. He and his crew were reliable and responsive and the price was fair. Will be calling him for future remodel projects for sure."
Jani H.
West Linn, OR · Multi-level composite deck
"Travis was very responsive. He seemed to treat our house like it was his own. He worked well with our insurance company. Travis was honest with his feedback while allowing us to put in our own preferences when it came to color and style. I am sure our home will become a reference showplace for him!"

Common Questions
In most cases, yes — if the deck is attached to the house or over 30 inches off the ground, you'll need a city permit. We handle the entire permit process for you, including HOA submissions where applicable. Permits in Portland typically take 1-3 weeks for decks.
Most decks take 2-6 weeks from start to finish, depending on size, complexity, and material. A straightforward ground-level deck might be done in 10 days. A multi-level deck with integrated lighting and a screened area could take 5-6 weeks. We'll give you a specific timeline in your proposal.
Composite decking (AZEK, TimberTech, Trex) is our top recommendation for Portland. It's engineered to handle moisture, won't rot or warp, and requires no annual sealing. Western red cedar is a beautiful natural option but needs resealing every 2-3 years. Ipe hardwood is the most durable natural wood and handles moisture beautifully, but at a higher price point.
Ground-level decks typically start around $18,000 for composite or $14,000 for cedar. Multi-level decks run $35,000-$60,000+. Elevated and rooftop decks start around $42,000-$55,000+. Material choice, square footage, site access, and features (lighting, built-in seating, pergola) all affect cost. We'll give you a detailed line-item quote at no charge.
Absolutely — that's a core part of our design process. We look at your home's architecture, rooflines, siding, and trim before proposing any design. The goal is always for the deck to feel like it was designed with the house, not bolted onto it.
Yes. We work with several financing partners who specialize in home improvement projects. Many customers qualify for 12-month no-interest plans or low fixed-rate terms. Ask about financing options during your free consultation.
