Composite Deck Builder in Central Alabama

Composite decking is the ideal solution for homeowners who want a beautiful outdoor space without the constant upkeep of traditional wood. At Cahaba Contracting, we design and build high-quality composite decks engineered for durability, safety, and long-term performance in Alabama’s climate.

We specialize in custom composite deck construction for homeowners across Central Alabama, delivering clean designs, rock-solid framing, and materials that hold up year after year.

​

Why Choose a Composite Deck?

Composite decking offers the look of real wood with significantly less maintenance. It’s an excellent choice for homeowners who value long-term performance and a clean, finished appearance.

Benefits of composite decking include:

• No staining, sealing, or painting required

• Resistant to rot, splintering, and insect damage

• Fade- and moisture-resistant surfaces

• Safer, slip-resistant walking surfaces

• Long manufacturer warranties

• Consistent color and finish over time

Composite decks are especially well-suited for Alabama homes where heat, humidity, and rainfall can quickly wear down traditional wood decks.

​

Custom Composite Deck Design & Construction

We don’t build cookie-cutter decks. Every composite deck we build is custom-designed to match your home, your property layout, and how you plan to use the space.

From simple backyard platforms to multi-level entertainment decks, our process focuses on structural integrity first — because a composite deck is only as good as the framing beneath it.

Our composite deck services include:

• New composite deck construction

• Composite deck replacements

• Elevated and multi-level decks

• Wide staircases and landings

• Built-in benches and seating walls

• Privacy walls and skirting

• Covered and screened composite decks​

Built the Right Way — From the Ground Up

Composite decking demands precise construction. Improper spacing, poor framing, or incorrect fastening can lead to premature failure — even with premium materials.

That’s why we focus heavily on what you don’t see.

Our construction standards include:

• Code-compliant footings and support posts

• Proper joist spacing for composite decking systems

• Moisture-protected framing connections

• Manufacturer-approved fasteners and hardware

• Clean, consistent board alignment

• Long-term drainage and ventilation planning

We build composite decks to meet or exceed local building codes and manufacturer requirements, ensuring your investment lasts.

Composite vs. Wood Decking

Not sure which option is right for you? Here’s a quick comparison:

Composite Decking

• Higher upfront investment

• Minimal maintenance

• Long lifespan

• Consistent appearance

• Excellent for busy homeowners

Pressure-Treated Wood Decking

• Lower initial cost

• Requires regular maintenance

• Shorter lifespan

• Natural wood appearance

• More upkeep over time

We’re happy to walk you through both options and help you choose the best solution based on your goals and budget.
