“Cold Flooring” in the Sun: Myth or Reality?
In summer, you want to step out onto the terrace barefoot and avoid the heat. This leads to a popular question: is there a deck that doesn’t heat up at all in the sun? The short answer is no; any material will heat up in direct sunlight. However, the difference in heat can be quite […]
How to care for a wood or wood-polymer composite deck
Yes, both wood and modern composite decks are designed to withstand the elements. But their lifespan and appearance directly depend on regular cleaning, proper chemical treatments, and careful winter maintenance. In the US, manufacturers’ recommendations are consistent: dirt and organic matter are the main enemies; harsh cleaning products and excessive water pressure are a common […]
Is Your Deck Poorly Built? Three Warning Signs to Check Today
A terrace isn’t just for relaxation. It’s a space subject to loads, wind, moisture, and cyclical heating. Errors in joints accumulate and then suddenly erupt: a wobbly fence, a sagging span, a damp “house joint.” Therefore, the reaction “we’ll figure it out some other time” is inappropriate. Our blog covers many topics related to home […]
Spring is the best time for a deck: start the season right
Building a deck involves more than just choosing deck boards and railings. It also involves weather windows, soil management, delivery schedules, permits, and inspections. In spring, these factors combine to create a more predictable picture: the ground has thawed, temperatures have stabilized, and permit departments and contractors aren’t yet overwhelmed with summer requests. As a […]
Steel deck framing: the fire-safe solution your home really needs
Forest fires are becoming a reality in an increasing number of regions. Therefore, the discussion of decking has long since moved beyond aesthetics. The key lies not only in the decking, but in the foundation itself. It is the framework that determines the fire resistance of the entire structure and influences how it will respond […]

Places where we provide services
Cedar Deck Building | LGC Remodeling
Cedar deck building is a popular choice for homeowners who value natural appearance, comfort underfoot, and proven outdoor performance. Cedar resists moisture, insects, and decay better than many other softwoods, making it a reliable option for decks in changing climates.
At LGC Remodeling, we specialize in building cedar deck structures that combine proper framing, clean installation, and long-lasting materials. Every cedar deck is built as a complete system—not just surface boards.
Why Choose a Cedar Deck
Cedar is chosen for both performance and appearance. A properly built cedar deck ages evenly and remains comfortable in hot and cool weather.
Key benefits of cedar decking:
- Natural resistance to rot and insects
- Lower surface temperature compared to many composites
- Lightweight material with strong structural performance
- Warm, natural look that fits many home styles
When done correctly, cedar decking installation provides a balance of durability and classic aesthetics.
Building a Cedar Deck: Our Approach
Successful building cedar deck projects start with structure. We design framing to support cedar boards properly and allow airflow to reduce moisture retention.
Our process includes:
- Structural planning and framing
- Material selection and board layout
- Precise cedar deck board installation
- Proper spacing for expansion and drainage
- Finishing recommendations for long-term protection
Attention to spacing and fastening is especially important during cedar deck board installation to prevent cupping and premature wear.
Cedar Decking Installation Details
Professional cedar decking installation focuses on both appearance and performance. Boards are installed with consistent gaps, aligned grain patterns, and secure fasteners designed for cedar wood.
We also plan for:
- Drainage and ventilation
- Smooth transitions at stairs and edges
- Integration with railings and landings
This ensures the deck looks clean on day one and performs well over time.
Cedar vs Other Decking Options
Cedar decks differ from pressure-treated lumber and composite decking.
- Cedar offers a natural look and cooler surface
- Pressure-treated wood is lower cost but heavier and less stable
- Composite requires less maintenance but has a different feel and appearance
We help homeowners decide whether cedar deck building is the right fit based on usage, maintenance expectations, and budget.

We offer:
- Experience with cedar deck building
