JD Flooring is more than floors. A deck, a fence or a run of trim takes the same specialist standard as the flooring work: it has to be built for how it will be used and it has to survive a North Bay winter. Freeze-thaw, heavy snow load and spring runoff punish anything that was framed in a hurry. That is why Joey Duchesne builds each project on the right footing, with proper drainage and slope, so it is still solid a decade later. Joey has been on the tools for 32 years, and he tells you what the structure actually needs before the first board goes on, not after it starts to sag.
JD Flooring builds outdoor living and finish carpentry, from the ground up:
You choose the materials and finish you want, cedar or pressure-treated, membrane colour, railing style, and Joey builds it right. He will tell you honestly which materials suit your space and your budget, and he sources the fasteners, footings and membrane the build needs so nothing is cut short.
A deck, fence or trim project in North Bay is priced by the project, and the number depends on three things: the size of the build, the materials you choose, and how easy the site is to access and dig. A ground-level cedar deck is a different job from a raised waterproof-membrane deck with a dry room framed underneath, and a fence line across flat, open yard is quicker than one that has to weave around rock, slopes or tight access. Because Joey builds to what the structure actually needs, every quote is complete and up front, so there are no surprise costs partway through. To get an exact number, send a few photos of the space and its rough dimensions to 705-492-8461 and Joey will give you a straight answer.
Homeowners often weigh a waterproof-membrane deck against a traditional wood deck. Here is the honest comparison Joey gives on site.
| Waterproof-membrane deck | Traditional wood deck | |
|---|---|---|
| Dry space below | Yes, the area underneath stays dry and usable | No, water drips straight through the boards |
| Maintenance | Low, wipe-clean surface, no annual staining | Higher, needs regular sealing or staining |
| Lifespan | Long, membrane sheds water and protects the frame | Solid, but boards weather and eventually need replacing |
| Look | Clean, finished surface in a range of colours | Natural wood grain, warm and classic |
| Cost | Higher up front for the membrane and sloped substrate | Lower to mid, depending on cedar or pressure-treated |
If you want dry, usable space under the deck, a covered patio, storage, or a walkout that does not leak, a waterproof-membrane deck earns its cost. If you just want a solid spot to sit outside and you like the look of natural wood, a traditional deck is often the smarter call. Not sure which fits your yard? That is exactly the kind of thing Joey will tell you straight during your free quote.
Flooring for your deck, fence or trimAnyone can screw boards to a frame and collect a cheque. A season later the posts heave, the surface holds water and the space underneath is a swamp. Joey builds on the right footings with proper slope and drainage from the start, so the deck sheds water and the fence stays plumb. On waterproof decks he installs a proper vinyl deck membrane, such as Duradek, over a correctly sloped substrate, so the space below is genuinely dry and not just a deck on top. Every JD Flooring build carries a one-year workmanship warranty when the job is built to the specification Joey recommends. When you choose JD Flooring, you get Joey, not a call centre and not a rotating crew of strangers.
