Decking Solutions
A deck isn’t just an add-on—it’s an extension of your home. It needs to look right, feel solid underfoot, and hold up through everything Edmonton weather throws at it.
At Obsidian Birch, we build custom decks that are designed for real use and built to last. No shortcuts. No prefab thinking. Just solid construction, clean finishes, and materials that can handle Alberta’s freeze-thaw cycles.
Every project starts with a site visit and a clear, detailed estimate, so you know exactly what you’re getting before we break ground.

FAQs
Do I need a permit for a deck, shed, or pergola?

How much do exterior carpentry projects cost in Edmonton?
Costs vary based on size, materials, and complexity. Smaller projects may start in the low thousands, while larger custom builds like decks or fully finished sheds can range from $5,000 to $20,000+. We provide a detailed, on-site estimate so you know exactly what your project will cost before any work begins.
