Learn MoreReach out by phone or through the contact form. We respond within 1 business day to learn a bit about your project - the size you have in mind, where the deck will go, and any features you want. You do not need to have everything figured out. We just need enough to schedule a useful site visit.
We come to your home, walk the yard, take measurements, and discuss your goals. We look at the ground conditions, sun exposure, and how the structure will connect to your house. Within a few days, you receive a written, itemized quote that covers materials, labor, and permit fees - no vague ballpark figures.
Once you approve the estimate, we handle the permit application and schedule your build. Our crew takes care of every step from footings to finishing, with a city inspection before the project closes out. When we are done, we walk the finished structure with you to make sure everything is right before we leave.
We are registered with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation and carry full liability insurance on every project. You can verify our registration on the TDLR website before you hire us.
Every estimate starts with a visit to your property. We measure, ask questions, and give you a written, itemized quote - not a number over the phone. You are never pressured to commit.
We know the neighborhoods, the permit offices on both sides of State Line Avenue, and the clay soils that make deck footings here different from the rest of Texas. Local knowledge matters on every job.
No surprise charges, no scope creep. Your contract spells out exactly what is included, and if something unexpected comes up during the build, we talk to you about it before we proceed - not after.

"They were out for the estimate within two days and had the deck framed and finished in less than a week. The permit was handled before they ever showed up with tools. Neighbors keep asking who built it."
Marcus T., Nash, TX - Custom deck design and build
"Our old wood deck had soft spots and a railing that wobbled every time someone leaned on it. They came out, gave us options, and replaced the whole thing with composite. Two summers later it still looks the same as day one - no staining, no repairs."
Diane R., Wake Village, TX - Composite deck installation
"We wanted a vinyl fence around the whole backyard before our grandkids visited for the summer. They worked around our schedule, kept the site clean every day, and finished on time. The price matched the written quote exactly."

Yes - Texarkana's combination of summer heat and humidity above 70% accelerates wood rot and mold growth significantly compared to drier climates. Pressure-treated wood rated for ground contact and proper sealing every one to three years are the minimum requirements for a wood deck to reach its full lifespan here.
Bowie County sits on expansive clay soil that swells when wet and shrinks when dry - a cycle that repeats constantly. Footings not dug deep enough for these conditions will shift over time, causing the deck to lean or develop uneven boards. The North American Deck and Railing Association recommends footings designed specifically for local soil conditions.
In Texarkana, TX, most decks attached to a home or above a certain height require a permit from the City of Texarkana building department. Skipping the permit means the deck is not on city record, which can create serious problems when you sell - lenders and buyers routinely check for unpermitted structures.
Composite handles East Texas summers better than untreated wood - it resists moisture, does not splinter, and needs no annual refinishing. The trade-off is that darker composite boards can get warm underfoot in direct afternoon sun. Lighter board colors and shade structures address this effectively.
Fall and late winter are the best windows for deck projects in Texarkana. Spring and early summer are the busiest seasons - good contractors book up fast and wait times stretch. Starting the process in January or February gives you the best chance of getting your preferred builder and your preferred timeline.
East Texas - including Bowie County - is in one of the highest termite-activity zones in the country. Using the correct grade of pressure-treated lumber for ground-contact applications and keeping wood away from direct soil contact are standard practices that a knowledgeable local contractor will build into every wood deck project.

A spongy board is usually a sign of wood rot that has spread below the surface. In Texarkana's climate, rot moves faster than most homeowners expect once it starts. A contractor can assess whether spot replacement or full deck replacement makes more financial sense.
If the framing is solid and only a few boards need replacing, repair is usually cost-effective. If the ledger board, posts, or joists show rot or structural damage, full replacement is typically the safer and more economical long-term choice. The American Wood Council publishes guidance on structural wood assessment.
Wait at least six months before applying any stain or sealant - new pressure-treated lumber needs time to dry out first. After that, clean and reseal every one to two years. In Texarkana's humidity, staying on that schedule significantly extends the deck's lifespan compared to skipping it.

Advanced Texarkana Fence & Deck is based in Texarkana, TX, one of the few cities in the country that straddles a state line. State Line Avenue runs directly through the middle of the city, with Texas on one side and Arkansas on the other. With a combined metro population of around 150,000 people, the Texarkana area is a stable, established community where most residents own their homes and take care of them for the long haul.
Many of the neighborhoods we work in feature older housing stock - homes built between the 1950s and 1970s with brick exteriors, established yards, and the kind of mature tree cover that makes outdoor living genuinely enjoyable most of the year. Downtown Texarkana is anchored by landmarks like the Perot Theatre, a historic performing arts venue built in 1924, and the Texarkana Post Office and Federal Building, the only U.S. post office addressed to two states at once. Whether a home is right off State Line Avenue or further out in one of the newer subdivisions near the Loop 151 corridor, we know the neighborhoods and the building requirements on both sides of the line.
Texarkana's climate is genuinely hard on outdoor structures. Summers push above 95 degrees with persistent humidity, spring storms bring hail and high winds, and the heavy clay soil shifts with every wet and dry cycle. A deck or fence built here needs to be designed for these conditions - not just for how it looks on day one. That is what we focus on for every homeowner in Texarkana and the surrounding Ark-La-Tex region.
