Deck Builders in Palm Beach Gardens, FL — Composite, PVC & Pressure-Treated
Pool, golf-view and preserve-side decks for Palm Beach Gardens, approved and permitted.
Palm Beach Gardens is golf-course and preserve country, and most decks here are built to take in a view: a fairway, a lake, or the pine flatwoods behind a PGA-corridor home. That means long sightlines, low-profile railings and boards that stay cool in the afternoon. J. Perry & Sons builds composite, PVC and pressure-treated decks across the city with the community ARC packet and the city Building Division permit included, as your renovation contractor in Palm Beach Gardens.

| PVC deck (full-synthetic, cool-touch) | 250–550 sf | $65–$95/sf |
| Elevated or second-story deck | 150–450 sf | $90–$140/sf |

Gardens decks are often larger with a pergola or built-in seating, so budgets land mid-to-upper composite range. Glass or aluminum railing, popular here for preserving the view, is supplied by our railing partner and quoted separately.

Palm Beach Gardens homes and what that means for deck building
The city grew from the 1960s–70s original neighborhoods along Holly Drive and Northlake Boulevard, which are CBS ranches on slab, to the 1980s–2000s gated golf and lake communities that define it today: PGA National, BallenIsles, Mirasol, Frenchman's Reserve, Evergrene and the newer Alton and Avenir developments to the west. Nearly all of the newer stock has an architectural review committee with written standards.
Golf-lot decks have a particular constraint. The rear property line often sits at a golf course easement or a drainage swale, and the community may limit how far a structure can extend toward the fairway. We locate the easement on your survey and set the deck inside it. Lake lots carry a maintenance easement along the bank, and preserve lots may have a buffer where nothing can be built or cleared, including footings.
Palm Beach County's wind-borne debris rules mean every deck is engineered with uplift connectors, rated post bases and footing sizes shown. Soil in the western communities is sandy fill over muck and limestone, so piers go to 18–24 inches or to the engineer's depth; the older eastern neighborhoods have firmer sand. Subterranean termites are active throughout, especially in the preserve-side communities, so framing is ground-contact rated with treated cut ends and no soil contact.
The Gardens is inland enough that hot-dipped galvanized hangers are acceptable, but homes near the Intracoastal in the eastern part of the city get 316 stainless. Most ARCs approve composite in warm brown, gray or a weathered-wood tone, with railing in bronze aluminum or glass. Several communities limit deck height to one or two steps above the pool deck to protect neighbors' views.

Deck Building in Palm Beach Gardens — FAQ
Can I build a deck toward the golf course behind my house? Up to the golf easement or setback line, whichever is tighter, and only after the community approves. We locate that line on your survey and keep the whole structure, footings included, inside it.
What does the ARC want to see for a deck? Typically a site plan, an elevation, the board color, the railing style and sometimes a neighbor notification. We prepare the packet from the same drawings used for the Building Division permit.
Is a pergola over the deck permitted the same way? Yes. The pergola is drawn on the same plan with its own post anchors and uplift design, and it goes through the ARC and the city permit together with the deck.
What is the timeline in Palm Beach Gardens? ARC review and the permit together run four to eight weeks depending on the committee's calendar; construction is one to two weeks, or two to three with a pergola. Submitting in September or October gets the build into the dry season.
How do I get an exact price? Call (561) 556-7509 or email jperrysonsgc@gmail.com with a photo and rough dimensions. We reply with a range the same day and schedule a site visit for a firm written quote.
