Learn MoreReach out by phone or through our contact form. We ask a few quick questions about your yard, your goals, and whether you have an HOA. You hear back from us within 1 business day - no waiting around wondering if your message got through.
We visit your property, measure the space, check the grade and any site conditions, and talk through your design ideas in person. You receive a written proposal that covers the scope of work, materials, timeline, and total cost. No verbal estimates, no pressure.
We pull the permits, manage the city inspection schedule, and do the work. You do not need to visit the building department or chase down an inspector. When the final inspection passes, we walk the finished deck with you and hand over all your documentation.

We have been building decks and fences in Broward County since 2018. We know the local permitting process, the HOA landscape in different neighborhoods, and what materials hold up in South Florida's salt air and humidity.
We come to your property, measure the space, and give you a written quote before you commit to anything. No deposit required to get an estimate. No pressure to decide on the spot.
Every project goes through the City of Fort Lauderdale permitting process. You receive a certificate of completion when the inspector signs off - the documentation that protects your investment when you sell your home.

"They finished our composite deck in just under two weeks, exactly when they said they would. The boards are perfectly level and the railing does not budge at all. We had one HOA revision to make and they handled it without any drama."
David R., Coral Springs - Composite deck installation
"Our pool deck had gotten dangerously slippery and the old wood was starting to show rot around the edges. Master Fort Lauderdale Deck and Fence replaced it with a textured surface that stays cool and dry even in the afternoon sun. Big difference."
Maria T., Pompano Beach - Pool deck construction
"We wanted a screened-in porch that actually let air through without the bugs. They installed it in three days and showed us exactly how the frame connects to the house. We have been using it every morning since."
James K., Hollywood - Screened-in porches and screened decks

Composite wins in Fort Lauderdale. Wood decks need resealing every one to two years here because the heat, rain, and salt air break down unprotected finishes faster than almost anywhere in the country. Composite requires only occasional cleaning.
Fort Lauderdale sits in Broward County's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. Decks here must be built to withstand higher wind forces than national standards require. That means heavier fasteners, deeper footings, and stronger ledger connections to your house.
An unpermitted deck can complicate a home sale, void a homeowners insurance claim, and may need to be demolished if discovered. Fort Lauderdale requires permits for any deck attached to a home or elevated more than 30 inches. The North American Deck and Railing Association publishes homeowner guidance on why permits protect your investment.
Salt air accelerates corrosion on standard metal fasteners and speeds up deterioration of untreated wood. Homes within a mile or two of the Atlantic or the Intracoastal Waterway need marine-grade or stainless steel hardware throughout the framing - not standard galvanized fasteners.
Repair makes sense when the damage is limited to surface boards and the framing underneath is structurally sound. If the posts, joists, or ledger have rotted or shifted, a replacement is almost always more cost-effective than patching a compromised frame.
HOA approval is separate from the city permit and must happen first. Submitting plans to the city before HOA approval can waste your permit review window. The process can add two to six weeks to your timeline depending on your association's review schedule.
Master Fort Lauderdale Deck & Fence is a licensed and insured deck builder company based in Fort Lauderdale, FL, serving 12 cities throughout Broward County since 2018.
We hold a valid state contractor license issued by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation - the licensing authority that oversees all residential construction work in the state.
Over the years we have completed hundreds of deck and fence projects across Fort Lauderdale and the surrounding area, offering 16 distinct services from custom deck design to pergola installation and fence replacement.
If the surface boards are worn but the framing underneath is solid, a repair or refinish can add years of life. If the posts or joists show rot or movement, replacement is the more cost-effective path - patching bad framing is a short-term fix.
It means the framing connections, post anchors, and ledger attachment all meet the wind-load requirements specific to Broward County's hurricane zone. A deck built to Florida code is meaningfully stronger than one built to standard national guidelines.
Red flags include suggesting you skip the permit, asking for full payment upfront, not carrying proof of insurance, or giving a quote that is significantly lower than every other estimate. A legitimate contractor answers these questions without hesitation.

Fort Lauderdale is home to about 182,000 residents and sits at the center of Broward County, one of the most densely populated counties in Florida. The city is known for its more than 300 miles of inland waterways, which is why it has long been called "the Venice of America." A large share of residential properties sit directly on canals, with private docks and seawalls in the backyard - and those waterfront locations put extra demands on any outdoor structure.
The city has distinct neighborhoods with very different housing types. Las Olas Boulevard runs through the heart of the city and is surrounded by upscale residential streets. Victoria Park and Rio Vista have older single-family homes, many with canal access, while Sailboat Bend and Flagler Village have mid-century bungalows on smaller lots. Homes along the Intracoastal Waterway face the added challenge of salt air exposure from the Atlantic side as well as the waterway itself.
Most Fort Lauderdale homes were built between the 1950s and 1980s using concrete block construction - a durable method designed for hurricane exposure and termite resistance. Many of those properties have outdoor spaces that have not been updated in decades. Median home values in Fort Lauderdale have climbed well above $400,000, which means homeowners here have real equity to protect - and a deck that is not up to code, or that shows its age, is a liability when it comes time to sell. Master Fort Lauderdale Deck & Fence builds to current Florida standards on every project we take on in the city.
