What's included
A well-built deck is more than an addition to your home. It is where morning coffee happens, where summer cookouts bring people together, and where you unwind after a long day. Maine Premier Painting designs and builds custom decks that are as durable as they are beautiful.
We handle it from the first sketch to the final inspection: design, material selection, permitting, construction, and finishing. Every deck we build is framed for Maine's freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow loads, and coastal conditions.

Questions about deck
- 01How long does a new deck take to build?
- Most residential decks are framed and finished inside a week once materials are on site, depending on size, height and whether footings, stairs or railings are involved. Permitting and material lead times are the usual variables.
- 02Should I choose composite or wood decking?
- Composite costs more up front and needs almost no maintenance. Pressure-treated and cedar cost less and need cleaning and re-coating every few years. Jermaine prices both at the estimate so you can compare the real numbers for your deck.
- 03Can you repair an existing deck instead of replacing it?
- Often, yes. If the posts, footings and framing are sound, replacing boards, railings and stairs is far cheaper than a rebuild. If the structure has failed, he will tell you straight rather than resurfacing something unsafe.
