We Don’t Just Build Decks—We Set the Standard
At Upgryd, we believe your deck should do more than meet expectations—it should exceed them for decades to come. That’s why we use premium materials, modern building techniques, and a detail-driven process to build and resurface decks that are made to outperform, outlast, and outshine. From composite deck installations to full wood deck renovations, every project is handled with precision and pride.
As one of Pennsylvania’s leading deck contractors, we’re committed to delivering long-term value, elevated aesthetics, and structural excellence on every build. Here’s what makes an Upgryd deck truly different:

We Don’t Use What’s Common—We Use What’s Best.
Most builders use #2 UC4A lumber or lower grades, which rots and decays faster in high-moisture conditions. We exclusively use #1 UC4B Critical Structure lumber, engineered for maximum durability and long-term stability.

More Than Just a Finishing Touch—It’s Protection.
Unlike other builders who skip this critical step, we install picture framing on every deck to prevent water damage, rot, and separation between the fascia board and rim joist. This isn’t just about aesthetics—it reinforces the deck’s structure and extends its lifespan.

Stronger Railings, Built to Last.
Most builders use pressure-treated 4x4 wood posts, which warp, twist, and loosen over time—compromising the safety and look of your deck. We use aluminum structural surface-mounted posts for maximum durability, zero warping, and a sleek, modern finish.

Protecting Your Home Before Problems Start.
Many builders skip flashing tape, exposing your home to hidden moisture damage that leads to rot and decay. We install butyl flashing tape between the deck ledger board and your home’s sheathing, creating a watertight barrier that protects your home’s structure.

We Prevent Frame Rot Before It Happens.
Deck frames are constantly exposed to moisture, especially where joists are close together. We apply butyl joist tape beneath the picture frame, stopping standing water from pooling and causing premature rot.

A Strong Deck Means Strong Stairs.
Without protection, stair frames decay faster due to trapped moisture. We install butyl joist tape under the step picture frame, preventing freezing, rotting, and instability—ensuring your stairs are as strong as the deck itself.
A Stronger, Smarter Foundation
We use advanced helical pier footings instead of traditional concrete to provide superior strength and stability for your outdoor structures. These footings are engineered for durability, reduce environmental impact, and ensure your project stands the test of time. It’s a smarter, more reliable foundation for your investment.
Our helical pier footings come with a lifetime warranty, ensuring long-lasting support and peace of mind.
Helical piers can be installed up to 10 times faster than traditional concrete footings, reducing project timelines.
Engineered for sustainability, helical piers have a significantly lower environmental impact than concrete footings.
Installed below the frost line, our helical pier footings eliminate the risk of frost heave and sinking, keeping your structure stable year-round.
