Wood is still the deck material we install most across the Upstate, and there’s a reason for that. It cuts cleanly on site, ages well with the home, and a worn board can come out and a new one goes in without touching the rest of the deck. Backyard Builders Decks and Outdoor Living designs and installs wood decks across Lyman and the surrounding Upstate, with the species, framing, and layout chosen for your property and how you actually plan to use the space.
A wood deck that lasts is one we got right at the framing stage. The boards are what you see, but the framing underneath is what you’re really paying for. We size the framing, the footings, and the fasteners against the loads the deck will carry before any board goes down on top.

A wood deck builder catches the parts of the job that decide whether the deck lasts fifteen years or thirty. That includes picking the right species for how you plan to maintain it, sizing the footings and framing to actual loads, choosing fasteners that hold up to wood’s seasonal movement, and running the permit start to finish. Generalists tend to miss one or two of these, and the deck shows it within a few years.
15+ years of outdoor living projects across the Upstate, with 1,000+ completed projects spanning Lyman and the surrounding service area. Every Backyard Builders wood deck includes our 1-year craftsmanship warranty on wood projects, plus the manufacturer warranty on the framing material.
