Deck Building & Outdoor Living in Southern Maine
Custom Decks Built
for Maine Summers (and Winters)
A well-built deck extends your living space outdoors. A place to relax, entertain, and enjoy the warmer months here in Maine. Foss & Company provides custom deck building services in Portland, Maine and throughout Southern Maine, creating outdoor spaces that are durable, thoughtfully designed, and built to last.
Whether you’re replacing an aging deck or building something new from the ground up, we bring the same care and craftsmanship to outdoor projects as we do inside your home, from initial design through final construction.
Custom Deck Design & Planning
We help design decks that fit your home, yard, and how you plan to use the space, whether that’s hosting gatherings or enjoying quiet mornings outside.
Railing, Stairs, & Safety Features
From classic railings to modern styles, we install railings, stairs, and safety features that meet local codes while complementing your home’s design.
Wood & Composite Decking
We work with a range of deck materials, including pressure-treated wood and composite options, helping you choose what makes the most sense for durability, maintenance, and appearance.
Repairs, Replacements, & Expansions
If your existing deck is showing its age, we can help assess whether repairs make sense or if a full replacement will provide better long-term value.
Permits & Structural Construction
Decks require proper footings, framing, and permits. We handle the structural work and permitting process to ensure everything is built safely and correctly.
