Custom Deck Construction
Extend your living space outdoors with a custom deck built for the Pacific Northwest. Russo Builders designs and builds composite, cedar, and hardwood decks — with pergolas, outdoor kitchens, and railings — engineered to stand up to decades of rain, sun, and gatherings.
WHAT WE OFFER
Composite Deck Construction
Low-maintenance composite and PVC decking built to last decades in Pacific Northwest weather. We install premium composite boards, hidden fasteners, and aluminum or composite railings — decks that look like wood without the staining, rotting, or splintering.
Cedar & Hardwood Decks
Natural wood decks in cedar, ipe, and mahogany — the warmth and character only real wood provides. We source premium lumber, seal every cut end, and finish with penetrating oils that protect against our wet climate while letting the grain shine.
Multi-Level & Hillside Decks
Custom multi-level and hillside decks engineered for sloped Eastside lots. Proper footings, structural framing, stairs, and transitions connect tiers of outdoor living space — turning challenging terrain into usable square footage.
Decks with Outdoor Kitchens
Outdoor kitchens, bars, and built-in seating integrated into your deck. We frame for grills and appliances, run gas and electrical, and finish with stone counters and pergola shade — a complete outdoor entertaining space.
Railings & Custom Details
Cable railings, glass panels, metal balusters, and custom wood railings. We handle the details that define a deck — built-in benches, planters, privacy screens, lighting, and staircases — engineered to code and finished to last.
Deck Repair & Refacing
Repair of rotten boards, failing framing, loose railings, and unsafe stairs — plus deck refacing with new composite or hardwood boards over a sound frame. We restore safety and looks without the cost of a full rebuild when the structure allows.
Built for the
Pacific Northwest.
A deck is more than boards and nails — it is an extension of your home into the outdoors. Russo Builders designs and builds decks engineered for the Pacific Northwest: proper footings below frost, stainless or galvanized fasteners, sealed framing, and materials chosen for decades of rain and sun.
We build in composite, PVC, cedar, ipe, and mahogany — and integrate pergolas, outdoor kitchens, built-in seating, railings, lighting, and planters. From a simple backyard platform to a multi-level hillside entertaining space, every deck is engineered to code, permitted, and finished with obsessive craftsmanship.
Serving homeowners across Seattle, Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Medina, Sammamish, Issaquah, Newcastle, Renton, and Mercer Island, we bring 25+ years of Eastside construction experience to every deck project. Call (425) 306-5553 to start yours.

Deck Questions
Answered.
How much does a custom deck cost in Bellevue?
Composite decks typically run $45–$85 per sq ft installed; cedar and hardwood decks $35–$75 per sq ft. Multi-level decks, outdoor kitchens, glass railings, and hillside footings add cost. We provide detailed estimates after a site visit.
How long does a deck take to build?
Most standard residential decks are completed in 1–3 weeks. Multi-level decks, outdoor kitchens, and hillside projects can take 3–6 weeks. Permitting, when required, adds 2–6 weeks. We provide a firm timeline during planning.
Do I need a permit for a deck?
Decks over 30 inches above grade, attached to the home, or with a roof generally require permits. Russo Builders handles all permit applications, drawings, and inspections in-house — fully licensed and insured in Washington State.
Composite or wood — which is better in the Pacific Northwest?
Composite and PVC decking require the least maintenance in our wet climate — no staining, sealing, or rot. Cedar and hardwoods offer unmatched natural beauty but need periodic refinishing. We help you choose based on budget, maintenance preference, and aesthetic goals.
Can you build a deck on a hillside or slope?
Yes. We specialize in multi-level and hillside decks engineered with proper footings, posts, and bracing for sloped Eastside lots. We handle grading, drainage, and structural engineering so your deck is safe and lasts.
Do you build outdoor kitchens and pergolas?
Yes. We build decks with integrated outdoor kitchens, bars, pergolas, built-in seating, planters, and lighting — a complete outdoor living space. We coordinate gas, electrical, and plumbing as needed.
