5 Best Deck Builders in Toronto (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

By Brad Smith, Home Services Expert · ✓ Data verified July 2026 · 8 min read

A new deck in Toronto is a backyard's biggest single investment, and deck builders in Toronto have earned 738 Google reviews between them proving they can pull it off cleanly. The top four all sit at 4.9 stars or higher, so the real question is not who does good work, it is which crew's specialty (new builds, restoration, or fencing) actually matches the project you have in mind.

Short answer: The Deck People leads on review volume with 298 reviews at 4.9 stars, though its focus is deck restoration, sanding and staining rather than new builds. DeckCrew.ca holds the highest rating on the list at a perfect 5.0 across 129 reviews and specialises in ground-up deck construction. UCO Construction Group and Top Quality Decks And Fences both sit at 4.9, covering restoration and fencing respectively. Budget for a written, itemised quote before any crew starts work.

Watch: 5 Best Deck Builders in Toronto (2026)

How we score

Every number on this page comes from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the business’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated them, ranked against other Toronto deck builders. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from hundreds of reviews carries more weight than the same score from a dozen. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much does a deck cost in Toronto? (2026)

None of the builders on this page publish a standard price list, since deck cost depends heavily on size, material (pressure-treated wood, cedar or composite) and site access. Ask each company for a written, itemised quote that separates materials, labour and any permit fees, and confirm whether demolition of an old deck is included.

Serving all of Toronto and the GTA

The builders above cover Toronto and the wider GTA, including Scarborough, North York, East York, Thornhill, Ajax and Pickering. Searching for a deck builder near me? Every listing below shows a live phone number and website so you can compare availability before you commit.

What to ask before you hire a deck builder

Is this a new build, a restoration, or a repair, and does your team specialise in that?
Can you provide a written, itemised quote before work starts?
Do you handle permits, or is that the homeowner’s responsibility?
What is the expected timeline, and how are delays communicated?
Do you offer a warranty on materials and workmanship?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these deck builders?

We started from every deck builder in Toronto with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (July 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Do I need a permit to build a deck in Toronto?

Many decks above a certain height or attached to the house require a permit from the City of Toronto. Ask your builder whether your project needs one and who is responsible for filing it.

What is the difference between a new deck build and a restoration?

A new build means constructing the deck structure from scratch, while a restoration involves sanding, repairing and re-staining an existing deck. Some of the businesses here, like The Deck People, focus specifically on restoration rather than new construction.

The bottom line

DeckCrew.ca is the safe default for a brand-new deck build on its perfect rating, while The Deck People is the go-to name if your existing deck just needs restoring. Whichever crew you call, get the itemised quote in writing before anyone starts sanding or digging.
