Our Decks
Decking Done Right — Without the Big Price Tag
At Koetsier Home Services, we build beautiful, long-lasting decks that make the most of your outdoor space — without the bloated price tag. We use the same top-tier materials the big companies do, but without the big advertising budgets (or the overhead that comes with them). That means you get the same quality, products, and craftsmanship, for a whole lot less.
Whether you’re dreaming of a cozy backyard retreat or a fresh new front entry, we’ve got you covered — literally.
What We Build:
PVC Decking
Water-resistant, fade-resistant, and ultra-durable. PVC decking is ideal for Michigan’s wild weather swings and lakeside living. It’s sleek, strong, and ready for anything.
Composite Decking
Low-maintenance, splinter-free, and built to last. Composite decking gives you the look of wood without the upkeep — perfect for busy homeowners who want beauty without the hassle.
KDAT Lumber
Kiln-Dried After Treatment (KDAT) lumber is pressure-treated for durability, then dried to reduce shrinkage and warping. It’s a great option for framing and decking when you want the strength of treated wood with a cleaner, more stable finish. Maintenance tip: KDAT lumber requires less initial maintenance and offers a smoother long-term experience compared to regular pressure-treated lumber — but both still need ongoing care.
| Feature | KDAT Lumber | Composite Decking | PVC Decking |
| Material | Pressure-treated wood, kiln-dried | Wood fiber + recycled plastic | 100% synthetic (no wood content) |
| Look & Feel | Natural wood grain | Wood-like appearance, consistent color | Sleek, modern, smooth or textured finish |
| Maintenance | Requires sealing/staining after install | Low maintenance (occasional cleaning) | Very low maintenance (just rinse off) |
| Durability | Good, but can still warp/split over time | Very durable, resists fading/splintering | Extremely durable, resists moisture/fade |
| Cost | $ (most affordable upfront) | $$ (mid-range) | $$$ (highest upfront cost) |
| Weather Resistance | Moderate (needs protection) | High (resists rot, insects, fading) | Excellent (ideal for wet climates) |
| Installation Ready | Can be sealed/stained immediately | Pre-finished, ready to install | Pre-finished, ready to install |
| Best For | Budget-conscious, natural wood lovers | Balanced performance & appearance | Maximum durability & minimal upkeep |
Shade Structures
From pergolas to covered porches, we design and build shade solutions that keep you cool and comfortable — and add serious style to your space.
Railings
Safety meets style. We install a variety of railing options — from classic wood to modern metal — to complement your deck and keep everyone secure.
Framing
A great deck starts with a solid foundation. We use high-quality framing materials and precise construction methods to ensure your deck stands strong for years to come.
Let’s build your backyard’s new favorite feature.
