Got referred to these guys by a friend and I’m glad I went with them. I expected it to be more expensive, but the price was fair for the quality. Materials look great and the install is nice and clean. Also appreciated that they cleaned up everything after , not everyone does that. Overall, great experience.
I’m really happy with my new deck! The team did a fantastic job. They listened to what I wanted, and it turned out just as I imagined. Great work!
The XP Decking company was really easy to work with. They kept me updated, finished on schedule, and the deck is solid and looks great. I’m so pleased.
Richmond Hill has no shortage of contractors. What it’s short on is deck builders who understand City of Richmond Hill permit rules, the TRCA regulated areas around Oak Ridges and the Don River headwaters, and the brick veneer attachment restrictions that trip up inexperienced crews.
From a composite deck installation in Jefferson to a full deck rebuild on a Bayview Hill estate, our own crew handles every Richmond Hill service below without subcontracting.
Richmond Hill’s housing stock ranges from townhomes in Langstaff to large detached estates in Bayview Hill and Oak Ridges. We design and build custom decks to fit every property type and lot size the city offers.
Richmond Hill deck permits are issued by the City of Richmond Hill Building Division under By-law 19-24. A permit is required for all decks, and three inspections are mandatory: post hole, framing and final.
The rule that catches many builders is brick veneer: a deck ledger cannot be fastened to it, so the deck’s load must be transferred to the foundation wall instead. Get this wrong and the permit application is rejected, or the deck fails inspection after it’s built.
We design every Richmond Hill deck attachment correctly from the start. We also handle grading permits from Development Engineering and TRCA applications where required, all filed before the first post hole is dug.
The northern part of Richmond Hill, including the Oak Ridges community around Lake Wilcox, sits within TRCA-regulated territory. The Don River and its tributaries originate in this area, and the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority governs construction setbacks from all regulated features.
If your Richmond Hill property is near a creek or ravine, or within the Oak Ridges Moraine boundary, TRCA approval is required before the City issues a building permit. We check your regulated-area status at the site visit and handle the TRCA application, so this step never causes a delay.
Richmond Hill ranges from townhome yards in Langstaff to large estate lots in Bayview Hill and Oak Ridges, often backing onto ravines. We match the material to the lot, the exposure and how much upkeep you want.
Our 5-year limited labour warranty covers every Richmond Hill deck we build. Material warranties from Trex, AZEK, and Fiberon add 25-year+ product coverage. Every permitted build includes City of Richmond Hill inspection records and full permit documentation.
We visit your property, check brick veneer conditions, TRCA regulated area status, and lot constraints, then give you a clear itemized quote. No charge.
We prepare permit drawings compliant with By-law 19-24 and submit to City of Richmond Hill Building Division. Grading and TRCA applications handled by us if required.
Our crew handles footings, framing, decking, railings and stairs. Deck attachment details are engineered for your home's wall construction, whether brick veneer, wood frame or otherwise.
We schedule and pass all three City of Richmond Hill inspections: post hole, framing and final. Once the deck is signed off, we hand over all permit documentation and walk through it with you.

Yes. A building permit is required for all decks in Richmond Hill under City By-law 19-24. Three inspections are mandatory: post hole, framing, and final. We manage the full application and inspection process on your behalf.
The Ontario Building Code prohibits connecting a deck ledger directly to brick veneer, because veneer is non-structural cladding and cannot carry the deck's load safely. The connection must be made to the foundation wall or structural framing instead. We design this correctly from the permit drawing stage.
Yes, for properties near Oak Ridges, Lake Wilcox, the Don River, or other regulated waterways and ravines. TRCA approval is required before City of Richmond Hill issues a building permit on those lots. We identify TRCA-regulated areas at your site visit and handle the application.
Richmond Hill deck builds range from $9,000 for a standard ground-level pressure-treated deck to $40,000+ for large composite or hardwood estate builds. We provide a detailed itemized quote after the site visit. No ballpark numbers without seeing the property.
Composite is the most popular choice: it handles York Region winters, needs no staining and keeps its appearance for 25+ years. Cedar suits older and heritage-style homes, and IPE hardwood is the top-end choice for Bayview Avenue and Oak Ridges estate builds. We recommend based on the home, the lot and your budget.
Standard builds take 3 to 7 days on site once permits are approved. The City of Richmond Hill processes complete applications within 5 to 10 business days. TRCA applications may add time where required, and we flag this clearly at the quote stage.
Yes. Heritage Richmond Hill properties on and around the Yonge Street corridor may require Policy Planning sign-off before a permit is issued. We identify heritage designations at the site visit and manage all required approvals.
Yes. XP Decking is fully insured and compliant with Ontario Building Code requirements and City of Richmond Hill By-law 19-24. We carry full liability coverage and manage all permits, TRCA applications, and inspections on every build.
