Here’s the worry every Montclair homeowner has before they hire: does this contractor actually know my street, or am I the job where they figure it out? Fair question — Montclair is not a subdivision you can build by template. The mid-century ranches off University Blvd sit on sloped lots with mature oaks and sandy loam over clay, and the parcels backing up to Pottsburg Creek drain differently than the ones two blocks west. We’ve built 38 decks across this neighborhood, so we already know your soil, your grade, and what Duval County wants stamped — we’re not learning Montclair on your dime.
That local read shows up where it matters: the footing depth on a sloped backyard, the flashing where the ledger meets your specific siding, the joist spacing under capped composite. Most Montclair homeowners come to us tired of the annual sand-and-seal grind on a splintering pine deck, so we build the Montclair composite deck that ends it — Trex Transcend or MoistureShield over a hot-dip galvanized substructure, hidden fasteners, picture-frame perimeter. Across all 38 builds: zero board-failure warranty claims and you can read before you call.

Montclair sits in unincorporated Duval, so deck permits go through the Duval County Building Permits office at 214 N. Hogan St., Jacksonville — an office we’re in often enough to know what they reject and how to file so they don’t. With stamped structural engineering submitted alongside the application, turnaround is 3 – 5 business days. We pull the permit, manage every inspection, and you never set foot downtown — it’s all line-itemed in your fixed-price quote.
Montclair is inland Southside, so every build is engineered to the 130 mph inland Florida standard. That means hurricane-rated metal connectors at every connection, 24" concrete footings sized for uplift (deeper on the sloped lots off St. Augustine Rd), and a continuous load path from the ledger to the footings. Permitted, stamped structures are covered under your Florida homeowner’s wind policy — an unpermitted deck usually is not.
Yes — porches are one of our most-requested Southside add-ons, and we’re the Montclair porch builders homeowners call when the back slab is uneven or the roofline needs a clean tie-in. We build open covered porches and full three-season rooms, then step a composite deck down to the yard. Designing the deck and porch together keeps the framing, drainage, and roofline consistent and saves a second permit cycle.
Often both. A raised Montclair composite deck in Trex Transcend or MoistureShield is the right call off a back door or for a sloped lot where you want a level outdoor floor. A ground-level paver patio in travertine or Belgard is better for a grill station, fire-pit lounge, or pool surround at grade. Many Montclair backyards combine a composite deck off the house with a paver patio beyond it; we’ll bring physical samples of both to your free in-home consult and render the full layout in 3D.
