Custom Decks

Custom Deck Builder in Kelowna & West Kelowna, BC

A deck designed around your yard and built by the two partners who quote it. We come out, look at the slope, the sun and the way you want to use the space, then walk you through the price in person.

Built for the Okanagan

Why Okanagan Decks Need a Different Plan

The Okanagan is hot and dry in summer, and a lot of homes in West Kelowna and Kelowna sit on sloped lots with a view. That changes how a deck should be built: taller posts and stronger bracing on the downhill side, boards that can handle strong afternoon sun, and a layout that puts shade where you will actually sit.

Wildfire is part of planning here too. FireSmart BC recommends keeping the area under and around a deck clear of anything that burns, and we design the space under your deck so it is easy to keep clean.

Built for slopes

We plan footings and bracing for the grade you have, not a flat-lot drawing.

Comfortable in the sun

We talk through board colour and shade so the deck is usable on a hot July afternoon.

Easy to keep clear

Skirting and access planned so leaves and debris do not build up underneath.

Pricing

How Much Does a Deck Cost in the Okanagan?

Every deck is priced on the details: size, height, materials and how hard the site is to work on. A ground-level platform and a raised deck on a steep lot are very different jobs, so we do not publish a one-size price.

What we do instead is come to your home and quote it in person. Where we can, we put the price together on site, so you are not waiting a week for an email.

What moves the price

  • •Deck size and height above grade
  • •Composite or wood decking
  • •Railing type
  • •Stairs, landings and levels
  • •Slope, access and footing type
  • •Extras like lighting, skirting or a pergola

I cannot recommend Keaton and Brandon from Ecohaven Sustainable Homes enough! They did an outstanding job resurfacing my deck. From the demolition to installing the new boards, they worked efficiently and kept the job site clean. Great attention to detail as well! Both were very professional in what they do and how they communicate. Thanks for a great job! I love my new deck!!

I’ve used Keaton on many custom projects around the house. Getting to know him, I’ve come to understand his family tree is full of home builders and it shows. His quality of work is outstanding and he is very reliable. This has led me to passing his number on to several friends over the years.

EcoHaven Homes – Fence Construction I recently hired EcoHaven Homes to build a fence on my property, and I couldn’t be more pleased with their work. From start to finish, the team was professional, quick, and incredibly efficient. What impressed me most was their ability to tackle the very difficult terrain on my land. Instead of taking a standard approach, they got creative with the design and construction, ensuring the fence was both sturdy and visually appealing despite the challenges. Not only did they deliver excellent craftsmanship, but they also managed to save us money without compromising quality. Their transparent communication and attention to detail made the entire process smooth and stress-free. If you’re looking for a reliable construction team that combines professionalism with innovative problem-solving, I highly recommend EcoHaven Homes. They truly went above and beyond to exceed my expectations!
