You don’t want a contractor who pulls up, looks at your 1920s bungalow, and starts guessing. San Marco isn’t a subdivision — it’s Mediterranean Revival and craftsman homes around the Square, brick side streets off Hendricks Avenue, and oak roots and riverfront clay that decide where a footing can actually go. Get any of that wrong and you get a deck that looks bolted on, a stalled permit, or a Preservation Society letter. We’ve built 28 decks, porches, and patios right here in San Marco, so we already know your permit desk, your review board, and your soil — and there are real builds down the street you can walk past before you sign anything. That track record is why our reviews read the way they do: 4.9 stars on 70 Google reviews, with a 10-year workmanship warranty and zero board failures.
Here’s how that shows up on your project. A low-profile Western Red Cedar or Brazilian Ipe deck that steps down to your shaded backyard like it was always there, a period-correct railing on a wraparound porch, a picture-frame border on a paver patio. We’re also the San Marco patio builders homeowners call for the rest of the backyard — pergolas over the lawn, paver patios in Belgard or travertine, and outdoor kitchens off the porch. Prefer to never sand or stain again? We’ll spec Trex Transcend or AZEK PVC when the look fits. We’re family-owned, licensed & insured the whole way. Free in-home consult, a 3D render of your build (credited to your project), and a fixed-price quote in 7 days — no pressure, no moving numbers.
Direct-hire build team and the same 10-year workmanship warranty across every outdoor-build category. Each link below goes to a detailed page with photos, pricing, and the specifics of how we build that service in San Marco.
You get a fixed price up front, not a moving estimate. A Western Red Cedar wood deck in San Marco runs $28 – $38 per square foot installed — a typical 14×16 (224 sq ft) deck lands between $6,272 and $8,512, locked in. Brazilian Ipe runs $40 – $55/sq ft, and a low-maintenance Trex Transcend composite deck runs $32 – $42/sq ft. Every number already includes hot-dip galvanized and 304 stainless fasteners, hurricane-rated metal connectors (ZMAX), 24" concrete footings, stamped engineering, the Duval County permit, and any San Marco Preservation Society submission — no surprise line items later.
Look for the builder who can show you finished decks on your own streets. Jacksonville Deck Builders (a Coastal Outdoor Construction brand) has 28 builds inside San Marco — wood decks, historic porches, and paver patios you can drive past before you commit. We’re family-owned, licensed & insured, and we’ve walked the San Marco Preservation Society and Marco Lake district review firsthand, so nothing about your neighborhood is new to us.

You never deal with the permit office — we do. San Marco deck permits go through the Duval County Building Permits office at 214 N. Hogan St., Jacksonville, and because we submit stamped structural engineering alongside the application, turnaround is 3 – 5 business days. If your home falls under the San Marco Preservation Society or the Marco Lake district, architectural review can add 14 – 21 days — so we file both in parallel and handle every back-and-forth ourselves. You don’t set foot in either office or chase a single signature.
San Marco is inland Jacksonville, so your build falls under the 130 mph inland Florida standard wind code rather than the higher oceanfront zone at the beaches — but we don’t cut a single corner for it. Every San Marco deck gets hurricane-rated metal connectors (ZMAX) at every connection, 24" concrete footings sized for uplift and oak-root clearance, and a continuous load path engineered to local code. That’s what keeps your deck standing through Florida storm season — and because it’s permitted and stamped, it’s covered under your homeowner’s wind policy.
Yes — and making it look original to your home is the whole point. A San Marco historic deck is usually a low-profile Western Red Cedar or Brazilian Ipe build with a period-correct railing, sized to step gently off a 1920s bungalow or Mediterranean Revival home so neighbors assume it was always there. We build matching wraparound porches in the same wood and stain to echo your original architecture. As San Marco wood deck builders, we keep the look era-appropriate up top while the framing underneath quietly meets modern code with ZMAX hardware and galvanized fasteners.
We do — and doing it all at once saves you money and headaches. Beyond decks, our San Marco patio builders install paver patios in Belgard and travertine, custom pergolas over the back lawn, and full outdoor kitchens off the porch or patio. Most San Marco homeowners pair a wood deck with a paver patio and a pergola in one go, because bundling means one permit, one contract, one fixed-price quote, and one 10-year workmanship warranty across the whole backyard — instead of three contractors and three callbacks.
