Wooden deck builders do a vanishingly rare thing in Manitoba: they craft a cedar deck that survives the winters. Bahbouh combines solid framing, good wood and a finish routine that keeps a wooden deck sound for decades.
Why Cedar Decks Still Win in Manitoba
Cedar smells, stays beautiful and ages gracefully — when the deck is built right and the homeowner keeps it updated. We set the joists broad and the blocking moisture-proof, and teach the 3-year washing and seal cycle that keeps cedar red.
Timber vs Pressure-Treated
- Cedar — durable, elegant, and worth re-sealing every few years
- Pressure-treated — economical structure that wants protection from moisture
- Composite hybrid — composite top over a timber frame
Wooden Deck Cost
Cedar deck builds generally run $30–$55 per square foot. A proper frame and structural work matter more than the surface, and we quote both lines separately.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do cedar decks last in Manitoba?
With a correct frame, a cedar deck lasts 15+ years, as long as the surface is re-sealed every few years — which we build and explain in the walkthrough.
Can I mix wood and composite?
Yes — composite surface over wood frame is a Winnipeg favorite for fewer re-seals.
Which wood species is best for a Manitoba deck?
Cedar and pressure-treated among the sturdiest for Manitoba weather; we explain each trade-off before you choose.
