Most deck contractors do one thing. Paradise Decks & Spas does everything.
From the first sketch of your custom deck design to the final coat of stain after a deep clean, we handle every stage of your outdoor project in-house.
As a result, there are no subcontractors shuttled in for the hard parts, and no gaps in accountability when something needs fixing years later.
San Antonio’s climate is unforgiving — 100°F summers, expansive clay soil, and storm winds that test every bolt and board. For that reason, our deck building services are engineered for exactly those conditions.
Moreover, we use materials and installation methods proven to hold up in South Texas, not just in a Midwest showroom.
At Paradise Decks and Spas, we specialize in transforming your outdoor spaces into stunning entertainment areas. With years of experience in custom deck design and construction, we bring your vision to life with precision craftsmanship and attention to detail. From initial design concepts to final installation, we’re committed to delivering exceptional quality and customer satisfaction.
Professional deck builders with years of experience in custom design and construction.
We use only premium materials to ensure your deck is durable and beautiful for years.
Tailored deck solutions designed to match your style, space, and budget perfectly.
Fair, transparent pricing with no hidden costs for all your deck construction needs.
From initial consultation to final walkthrough, we ensure every detail of your deck project exceeds expectations. Let us help you create the outdoor paradise you’ve always dreamed of.
Most homeowners reach out after noticing one of these warning signs. In general, catching problems early means a repair — while ignoring them usually means a replacement.
If you’re seeing two or more of these, call us before the repair becomes a rebuild.
Every deck is only as good as what it’s built from. We work with materials proven to handle San Antonio’s heat-and-humidity cycle, not the ones that look great in a Midwest showroom and warp in Texas by year three.
| Material | Best For | Lifespan in San Antonio |
|---|---|---|
| Trex composite | Low maintenance, fade-resistant color | 25–30 years (25-yr warranty) |
| TimberTech composite/PVC | Premium look, heat-mitigation tech | 30+ years (30–50 yr warranty) |
| PVC decking | Pool decks, full waterproofing | 30+ years |
| Pressure-treated pine | Budget builds, structural framing | 15–20 years with maintenance |
| Western Red Cedar | Natural look, on a budget | 15–25 years with sealing |
| Cable railing | Modern aesthetic, unobstructed view | 30+ years |
| Stamped concrete | Hardscape, pool decks, patios | 25+ years |
Step 1 — Free On-Site Consultation (1–2 days out). First, we come to your property, walk the space, take measurements, and ask about your goals. There’s no sales pressure and no upcharges discovered later.
Step 2 — Design & Written Quote (3–7 days). Next, you receive a 3D rendering, a written scope of work, and a fixed-price quote. In short, the number you approve is the number you pay.
Step 3 — Permitting (1–3 weeks). Then we prepare and submit permit drawings and pull the permit on your behalf. As a result, you don’t need to take a day off to meet an inspector.
Step 4 — Construction (1–4 weeks). After that, we build. For instance, a simple deck installation service takes 5–7 working days, while a multi-level deck with lighting and a spa pad runs 3–4 weeks.
Step 5 — Inspection & Walkthrough. Finally, we meet the city inspector, walk the finished project with you, and hand over warranty documentation.
Paradise Decks & Spas is a true single-source contractor for every outdoor project — new builds, ongoing care, and everything in between.
Every custom deck service starts with your backyard, your lifestyle, and how you actually use outdoor space. Notably, you'll see a 3D rendering before we cut a single board, so there are no surprises.
Our deck building services are built to the 2021 International Residential Code as adopted by San Antonio. Specifically, that means proper footings for clay soil, galvanized hardware throughout, and flashing that keeps water off your foundation. In addition, ground-level, elevated, multi-level, rooftop, and pool-side deck installation service are all handled in-house.
LED post-cap lights, low-voltage riser lighting, and smart-scene controls make your deck as usable at 9 PM as at noon. Best of all, our in-house team designs and wires it — with no third-party electricians to coordinate.
Pergolas, arbors, patio covers, screen rooms, and carports extend your outdoor time year-round in San Antonio's climate.
As an authorized dealer for Cal Spas, L.A. Spas, Dimension One Spas, and Swim Spas, we deliver, install, and coordinate the 240V electrical. In turn, we also engineer the deck to safely support a full spa's water load.
Storm damage, rotted boards, failing posts, cracked joists, unsafe railings — our deck repair services cover structural and cosmetic repairs on any deck, regardless of who built it. First we diagnose, then we quote in writing, and finally we fix it right.
Cracked concrete, sunken slabs, and surface spalling are common in San Antonio's heat. Our pool deck repair services address all of it — from hairline crack injection to full slab replacement.
You need a deck contractor who understands South Texas. Here’s what sets us apart:
We dispatch from our San Antonio location and serve homeowners throughout the greater metro area. If you’ve been searching “deck services near me,” we’re likely already working in your neighborhood.

Need a deck installation service, deck repair service, or pool deck work in one of these areas? We provide the same quality and same fixed-price quoting process everywhere we work.
Custom deck builds typically run $45–$95 per square foot installed, depending on material and complexity. For example, a 300 sq ft pressure-treated deck runs approximately $14,000–$18,000. By comparison, a 400 sq ft Trex deck with composite railings, LED lighting, and a spa pad runs closer to $32,000–$42,000.
Separately, deck repair services, deck cleaning services, and deck staining services are scoped based on your deck’s size and condition. In every case, we provide a fixed written quote on every job — no hourly rates, and no estimates that expand on the back end.
Our deck maintenance service covers a full structural inspection (fasteners, joists, posts, railings), surface cleaning, spot staining or resealing of exposed areas, and a written condition report. As a rule, we recommend scheduling it every 1–2 years for wood decks and every 2–3 years for composite decks in San Antonio’s climate.
Yes, in most cases. Specifically, San Antonio requires a building permit for any deck attached to the home, any deck 30 inches or more above grade, and any deck supporting a hot tub or spa. Regardless, we pull every required permit, prepare drawings, and meet the city inspector on site. As a result, you don’t need to manage any of it.
For wood decks in San Antonio, we recommend a professional deck cleaning service every 12–18 months. After that, plan on deck staining services every 2–3 years. In fact, the combination of UV exposure, humidity, and temperature swings here accelerates finish breakdown faster than most other climates. Composite decks, however, need cleaning but not staining — usually once a year is enough.
Our pool deck drain cleaning service clears sediment, organic debris, and root intrusion from point and linear drains on your pool deck surface. Otherwise, clogged drains back water onto the deck, which accelerates concrete cracking and creates slip hazards. Finally, the service includes a water-flow test after cleaning to confirm proper drainage.
Yes. For instance, our concrete pool deck repair services address hairline cracks (injection fill), larger surface cracks (saw-cut and fill), sunken or lifted slabs (mudjacking or slab replacement), and deteriorated joints. However, if your pool deck needs more than repairs, our concrete pool deck installation services cover full surface replacements with proper drainage slope built in.
Deck sealing is a surface treatment. Deck waterproofing services, by contrast, go deeper — sealing boards and penetrating into the end grain.
On elevated decks, they also create a continuous membrane that protects the framing below and can create dry space underneath. Notably, we use commercial-grade materials rated for Texas heat cycling, not consumer-grade big-box products.
Yes, we do. Specifically, we work with approved lenders to offer financing on most projects. Therefore, ask about terms and monthly payment options during your free consultation.
Whether you need a full custom deck installation service, seasonal deck cleaning and staining services, pool deck repair services, or anything in between — Paradise Decks & Spas has handled it before, and we’ll handle it right.
