Decks and paver patios in Seattle
Decks and patios are among the projects we build most. We build composite, cedar, and pressure-treated decks, and concrete and paver patios, on their own or together, and plan the levels and drainage so water runs away from your house instead of pooling.
See our deck building services, the Seattle deck permit guide, our paver patio services, and the paver patio guide.
| Project | Good for |
|---|---|
| Composite deck | The least upkeep in our rain; only cleaning |
| Cedar deck | A natural wood look; needs a fresh finish every few years |
| Pressure-treated deck | The lowest cost up front; needs regular cleaning and sealing |
| Paver patio | Ground-level space that flexes with the ground; units can be lifted and reset |
| Deck plus patio | A raised deck off the house with a patio below or beside it |

What our customers say
Great team that delivered high-quality work efficiently. They completed the project quickly without sacrificing quality. I've worked with many contractors, and this team stood out for their speed, communication.
I had a very good experience with Dawn Construction. We agreed on a price to demolish my old patio and to construct a new one. They came by every day to check on the progress and to see if I had any questions. My patio was finished in a very timely manner and it turned out beautiful!
Dawn Construction WA did a great job with our bathroom remodel. Nate was professional, kept us updated throughout the project, and made sure everything was completed with attention to detail. We're very happy with the finished bathroom and would recommend the team.
