Custom Decks
Do you build decks anywhere in the GTA?
Castle Build serves Toronto and the surrounding Greater Toronto Area. Contact us with your location and we will confirm we can take on the project.
Can you work with my existing deck footprint?
Yes. We can rebuild on a revised footprint or design something new. We review the existing structure and site conditions before recommending an approach.
How do I get a price?
Send a quote request with a description of what you have in mind and photos of the area if you have them. We follow up to discuss the project before providing pricing.
Fence Installation & Repairs
Do you repair fences as well as install new ones?
Yes. We handle both full installations and repairs to sections, posts and gates.
Can you match an existing fence?
In many cases a repair can be blended into the existing run. Send photos with your enquiry and we will let you know what is realistic.
Do you handle property line questions?
Property line placement is the homeowner's decision and, where relevant, a matter between neighbours and the municipality. We build to the line you confirm.
Custom Sheds
Can the shed match my house or fence?
Finishes can be selected to complement the home, fencing or deck. We discuss options with you before starting.
What sizes do you build?
Sheds are built to suit the site rather than a fixed catalogue. Tell us the space you have and what you plan to store.
Do I need approval for a shed?
Requirements vary by municipality and by structure. Confirm current rules with your local municipality for your specific property.
Gazebos
Can a gazebo be built on an existing deck or patio?
Often yes, depending on the existing structure. We review the site and existing construction before confirming an approach.
How is a gazebo different from a pergola?
A gazebo has a solid roof and gives full overhead shelter. A pergola has an open or slatted roof and defines space while letting light through.
Do you build gazebos year-round?
Scheduling depends on the season and the current workload. Contact us and we will let you know current availability.
Pergolas
Will a pergola give full shade?
A pergola provides filtered shade through its slatted roof. If you need full overhead cover, a gazebo is usually the better structure.
Can a pergola be attached to the house?
Attached and freestanding configurations are both possible. Which one suits depends on the wall, the roofline and the space.
Can it be built over an existing patio?
Often yes. We assess the existing surface and conditions before confirming how the posts will be supported.
Concrete Work
What kinds of concrete work do you take on?
We take on concrete work that forms part of outdoor construction projects. Describe what you need in your enquiry and we will confirm whether it suits our scope.
Can concrete be combined with a deck or structure?
Yes. Concrete elements are often coordinated with decks, sheds, gazebos and pergolas within the same project.
When can concrete be poured?
Weather and temperature affect scheduling. We will discuss realistic timing when we talk about your project.
Custom Woodwork & Carpentry
Do you take on small carpentry jobs?
Send us the details. We will let you know whether the work suits our current schedule and scope.
Can you build to a design I already have?
Yes — share drawings, sketches or reference photos with your enquiry and we will review them with you.
Is interior carpentry included?
Our work is focused on outdoor structures and exterior carpentry. Contact us with your project and we will tell you if it is a fit.
Landscaping & Outdoor Improvements
What landscaping work do you take on?
We take on landscape-related outdoor improvements that complement the overall space. Describe what you have in mind and we will confirm whether it fits our scope.
Can landscaping be part of my deck or fence project?
Yes. Combining the work usually gives a more coherent result and a simpler process for you.
Do you take on landscaping-only projects?
Send us the details of the project and we will let you know.
