Move the cooking outside where it belongs. We build the deck platform, countertop framing, and utility rough-ins for outdoor kitchens.

A sloped yard or a tall back door does not have to be a problem. Multi-level decks work with your property's grade, not against it.

Wobbly or rusting railings are a safety hazard, not just an eyesore. We install railings that are solid, code-compliant, and built to last.
Learn MoreReach out by phone or the contact form and we will get back to you within 1 business day. We ask a few quick questions about your project so we can show up to your property with useful ideas and realistic numbers - not a blank notepad.
We visit your property, measure the space, check the ground conditions, and walk through your options with you. Within a few days you will receive a written proposal that spells out the scope, materials, timeline, and total price - no vague estimates that balloon later.
Once you approve the design, we handle the Brevard County permit application, schedule the inspections, and build your project. We do not consider a job finished until the inspector signs off and we walk you through the completed work.
We carry a valid Florida contractor's license and both liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage. You can verify our license at myfloridalicense.com before we ever set foot on your property.
We are a locally owned company - not a national franchise dispatching strangers. We know Brevard County's permit office, HOA patterns, soil conditions, and seasonal weather, because we work here every day.
Every estimate is free, in person, and comes with a written proposal that breaks down costs by materials and labor. No phone-only quotes, no surprises after the contract is signed.
Navigating Brevard County Building Services and your HOA's approval process is part of the job for us. You do not make a single call to the building department or fill out a single HOA form.

"They built our composite deck in about four days, which was exactly the timeline they gave us upfront. The crew cleaned up every afternoon before they left and the framing passed the county inspection on the first visit. We have been using the deck almost every evening since it was finished."
Michael T., West MelbourneComposite deck installation
"Our old wood fence was falling apart after the last storm season. They replaced the whole run of privacy fencing within a week of the estimate. The posts are set solid - nothing moved when we had high winds a month later. Worth every dollar."
Sandra K., MelbourneWood and privacy fence installation
"We wanted a screened enclosure off the back of our house so we could sit outside without fighting the bugs and the afternoon rain. They handled the permit, worked around our HOA requirements, and finished on schedule. Our family uses that porch basically every day now."
James R., RockledgeScreened-in porches and screened decks
We respond within 1 business day. There is no obligation - a free estimate is just that, free. After you submit, someone from our office will call you to schedule a free on-site visit where we measure your space and walk through your options in person.

We offer same-week scheduling for estimates and typically begin permitted projects within two to three weeks of signed contracts.
Yes - any deck attached to your home or above a certain freestanding size requires a building permit in Brevard County. A permit means an independent inspector checks the framing before boards are laid, which protects you if you ever sell. The West Melbourne Fence & Deck team at the Brevard County Building Services handles your permit application from start to finish.
Pressure-treated wood is affordable and proven, but it needs cleaning and sealing every one to two years in Florida's humidity or it will gray, crack, and absorb moisture. Composite decking costs more upfront but resists UV fading, rot, and insects with almost no maintenance. For most Brevard County homeowners, composite pays off over a 10-to-15-year horizon.
Florida's building code requires decks to be fastened and anchored to specific wind-load standards - higher than most other states. When a licensed contractor pulls a permit and passes a county inspection, an independent inspector verifies those connections. A deck built to code and inspected is meaningfully different from one that was not.
Probably yes. Many West Melbourne subdivisions built since the 1990s have active HOAs with rules on deck size, materials, color, and setbacks. HOA approval and the county permit are two separate processes. Skipping HOA approval first can result in a demand to modify or remove a finished deck - even after it passes a county inspection.
If fewer than a third of your boards are soft or damaged and the structural frame is solid, targeted repairs can add several years of life. Once the frame - the posts, beams, and joists - shows rot or the deck has pulled away from your house, a full replacement is almost always the better investment. A contractor can tell you which situation you are in after a 15-minute on-site look.
A safe deck has railings that do not move when you push on them, boards that do not flex noticeably underfoot, and posts set at the correct depth for local soil. In West Melbourne's sandy soil, posts set too shallow can shift within a few years. The North American Deck and Railing Association publishes deck safety guidelines every homeowner can reference.
West Melbourne Fence & Deck is a licensed and insured Deck Builder company based in West Melbourne, FL, serving homeowners across 12 Brevard County communities since 2017.

Since 2017, we have completed deck builds, fence installations, pergolas, screened enclosures, and outdoor kitchen projects across the Space Coast. Our team knows Brevard County's permitting process, the soil conditions that affect footing depth, and the HOA rules common in West Melbourne's neighborhoods.

Any deck attached to your home requires a permit in Brevard County. Freestanding decks above a certain size do too. Your contractor pulls the permit - you should not need to interact with the county building department directly. According to the Florida Building Commission, permitted structures are legally documented and protected at resale.
West Melbourne's flat terrain means low spots can hold water after heavy rain. Standing water under a deck shortens the life of framing posts and footings. A good contractor will assess your yard's drainage before setting footings and may recommend specific post materials or raised framing to keep the structure dry and stable over time.
Ask each contractor for a written, itemized quote that separates material costs from labor. Confirm each quote includes the permit fee and all hardware - not just the decking boards. Check that every contractor is licensed and insured before inviting them to your property. A lower quote that omits the permit or uses inferior fasteners is not a better deal.

West Melbourne is a residential city in Brevard County with a population of roughly 22,000 to 24,000 people and a high rate of owner-occupied homes. According to U.S. Census data, the majority of West Melbourne residents own their homes, which means most of the people we work with have a real stake in keeping their properties in good shape. The city sits west of Melbourne along US-192, making it a quiet community with easy access to the rest of Brevard County.
West Melbourne is part of the broader Space Coast region, anchored by NASA's Kennedy Space Center, Patrick Space Force Base, and employers like L3Harris Technologies. That mix creates a stable working-professional population with homes they invest in. Most of the housing stock consists of single-family homes built between the 1970s and 1990s - concrete block construction, low-pitch roofs, and screened-in back porches. Many neighborhoods in the western parts of the city are newer subdivisions from the 2000s and 2010s. A large share of these communities are governed by HOAs, which is something we factor into every project we plan here.
Whether you are near Hammock Landing on the east side of town or in one of the newer subdivisions off Minton Road, we work on homes throughout West Melbourne every week. We know the streets, the soil, the permit office, and the HOA patterns - because this is the community we work in every day. If you are ready to add a deck, fence, or screened enclosure, we are the local contractor who can get it done right.
By appointment only, no walk-ins.
