Custom Deck Design, Build, and Repair
Serving Portland & Surrounding Areas
Comprehensive Deck Services
Design, Build, Repair, And Maintenance
A M Wilson Construction delivers full-service deck solutions, including custom design, new builds, expansions, resurfacing, and structural repairs. We also handle safety upgrades such as guardrails, stair replacements, lighting integration, and accessibility improvements to fit your home and lifestyle.
Every project is engineered for safety and longevity, from proper footings and ledger attachment to flashing, load paths, and code-compliant guard and stair geometry. We use corrosion-resistant fasteners, provide transparent proposals, and back our work with strong workmanship and manufacturer warranties.
Premium Options Tailored To Your Lifestyle
Select from proven materials, including pressure-treated lumber for framing, cedar or redwood for natural beauty, and advanced composite or PVC decking for low maintenance and long-term performance. We help you compare durability, upkeep, color choices, textures, and budget to find the right fit.
Details matter: hidden fasteners, color-matched screws, picture-frame borders, and precise miters elevate the final look. We install railing systems in aluminum, steel, cable, or glass; integrate joist protection tape and waterproof membranes; and finish with quality stains and sealers for enhanced protection.
From Site Visit To Final Walkthrough
It begins with an on-site consultation to evaluate your space, measure, and understand how you plan to use the deck. We review sun and shade, views, privacy, traffic flow, and budget, then provide concept drawings or 3D renderings, material samples, and a detailed, line-item estimate.
Next, we finalize structural design, verify spans and loads, and prepare permit-ready documents as needed. Our team coordinates approvals, HOA guidelines if applicable, and a clear schedule. You will receive consistent updates on milestones, material arrivals, and any adjustments.
During construction, we protect your property, handle demolition and disposal when required, and then build foundations, framing, decking, railings, and trim with strict quality control. After a thorough cleanup, we complete a final walkthrough, deliver a maintenance guide, and register applicable warranties.

Kenneth White2024-09-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Michael is incredibly personable and professional. The install for my new hand railing is exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend him, and certainly would use him again. Thank you Michael. Ronda Hyson2024-08-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have to say that AMWilson are a blessing. I was loosing hope on stopping the ongoing water damage happening in my home due to a poorly installed roof by previous owner of my home. Thanks to AMWilson I no longer panic when rain is in the forecast. It is like angels looking out for my home. I can not thank them enough Mini2024-07-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Michael was fantastic to work with on our shed finishing project, we are very happy with the outcome. He listened to what we were looking to do, gave good input balancing what we were trying to achieve and provided cost-effective options. During the project, Michael gave regular updates, he is a great communicator. The finished work looks polished as well as utilitarian. We would definitely be looking to hiring A M Wilson construction again for a future project. Emily2024-05-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I hired A M Wilson Construction to complete repairs on my deck closet that had experienced water damage during the winter. They were prompt, communicative, friendly and easy to work with, and they did a great job. Their price was more than fair. I will definitely call them again when I need work done in the future. iFleecy2023-01-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had AM Wilson come install a set of french doors we had bought previously from home depot that I tried to install myself, Its harder than it looks to say the least and I should have contacted a contractor prior. Alex was able to repair a little damage I caused to the door frame when I tried to install it myself and made it look just as new. We've gone ahead and hired AM to do the trim work in our entire house after seeing the detail and level of quality of work he did on the french doors. I don't think we could be more happy with the daily results they've turned out for us, great couple of professional carpenters.

Built For Local Conditions
Codes, Climate, And Longevity
Decks must withstand wet seasons in Portland, so we design for drainage with proper board spacing, slope away from the house, robust flashing, and stainless or coated hardware. Our builds include joist protection and moisture management strategies that reduce rot risk and extend service life in Portland’s damp climate.
Permitting and inspections in Portland require accurate plans and code knowledge. We handle the submittals, address inspector feedback, and ensure footings, ledgers, guards, and stairs meet current standards. From tight-lot access to property line considerations, our team streamlines the process specific to Portland requirements.
Whether your home is a historic bungalow or modern infill, we tailor solutions to neighborhood context across Portland. Expect responsive scheduling, clear communication, and maintenance plans aligned with Portland weather patterns—so your deck stays beautiful and safe season after season.
