Scheduling

How far in advance should I schedule my project?
We recommend scheduling 2-4 weeks in advance, though timing can vary by season. Spring and summer are our busiest seasons, so booking early is recommended for those months.

Fencing

What types of fencing do you install?
We install wood (cedar, redwood, pressure-treated pine), vinyl, chain link, and ornamental iron fencing. We also do custom designs, gates, and fence repairs.
How much does a fence cost in Carson City?
Fence costs in Carson City typically range from $15-45 per linear foot depending on the material. Wood fences average $20-30/ft, vinyl $25-40/ft, and chain link $15-20/ft. A standard 150-foot residential fence might cost $2,250-6,750 installed. On Deck provides free on-site estimates with exact pricing.
Do I need a permit for a fence in Carson City NV?
In Carson City, fences under 6 feet in the backyard generally do not require a permit. Front yard fences and fences over 6 feet typically do. HOA-governed communities may have additional restrictions. On Deck handles the permit process and HOA coordination as part of our service.

Landscaping

Can you help with drought-resistant landscaping?
Absolutely! Xeriscaping is one of our specialties. We design beautiful, water-efficient landscapes using drought-tolerant plants, decorative rock, and smart irrigation systems perfect for Northern Nevada's climate.
What is xeriscape landscaping?
Xeriscaping is a landscaping method that uses drought-tolerant plants, efficient irrigation, and decorative rock to create beautiful yards that require minimal water. It is ideal for Northern Nevada's dry climate and can reduce water bills by 40-60%. On Deck specializes in xeriscape design for Carson City, Reno, and surrounding areas.

Pavers

How do pavers hold up in Northern Nevada winters?
Pavers are excellent for our climate. Unlike poured concrete, individual pavers can flex with freeze-thaw cycles without cracking. With proper base preparation, pavers can last 25-50 years in Northern Nevada.
How long does a paver patio installation take?
A typical paver patio installation takes 3-7 days depending on size and complexity. A standard 200-300 sq ft patio takes about 3-4 days, while larger projects with fire pits, seating walls, or complex patterns may take up to a week. On Deck provides a detailed timeline during your free estimate.

Gutters

Do you install gutter guards?
Yes, we install several types of gutter guards including micro-mesh, screen, and reverse curve styles. Gutter guards are especially important in areas with pine trees to prevent needle buildup and clogs.
