Learn About the Best Deck & Fence Builder in Oregon
Building outside in Oregon isn't like building anywhere else. Seven months of constant rain, clay heavy with moisture, and soggy footings will ruin a poorly built deck or fence in just a few seasons. At Wades Services, Daniel Wade and the crew have spent over 15 years framing decks and setting posts across the Willamette Valley. We know what rots, what holds up, and how to build an outdoor space that stays straight and sturdy for years.
Local weather puts every board and fastner to the test. Moisture sinks into end grain, winter freezes shift shallow footings, and summer sun bakes unprotected wood. That's why we don't rush site prep or use cheap hardware. When you hire our team, you get solid framing, clean cut lines, and a project handled right from the first hole we dig to the final walk-through.
Fifteen Years of Building for Northwest Weather
Wades Services started back in 2009 with a basic goal: build things to last, charge a fair price, and treat homeowners right. Over fifteen years later, that hands-on approach hasn't changed. We still check every ledger board, level every post, and double-check every framing bracket ourselves.
The real secret to outdoor carpentry around here is understanding water. Before setting a single post, we look at how water moves across your yard, test soil depth, and check for hidden drainage issues. We don't drop pre-assembled fence panels off a truck and call it a day. Every deck frame and fence line is laid out and built directly on your property to match the exact slope of your land.
Whether you want a low-maintenance composite deck for backyard barbecues or a tall cedar privacy fence to enclose the yard, our work gives you solid construction and real peace of mind every time you step outside.
What Drives Our Work
How We Run Every Job
Our focus is straightforward: construct well-built custom decks and fences that hold up against heavy Pacific Northwest rain. We show up when we say we will, keep pricing clear without sneaky add-ons, and cut no corners on structural framing. If a job takes extra work underneath to ensure long-term stability, that is exactly what we do.
Where We See This Going
We want every homeowner in our region to have a safe, sturdy backyard space where they can kick back and relax. By staying focused on solid building habits, honest estimates, and taking care of the surrounding lawn during construction, we plan to stay the local crew people recommend to their neighbors.
Why Homeowners Pick Up the Phone
Finding a reliable builder who returns calls, keeps a clean job site, and finishes on schedule can feel tough. We keep things simple by being transparent, straightforward, and accountable from day one.
A Local Family Business
We live and raise our families right here in the valley. When we finish a project, we know we'll see you at the store or pass your house on our way to the next site. Taking care of local families matters to us, which is why you work directly with people who care about the outcome.
Voted a Neighbor Favorite
Earning recognition on Nextdoor comes down to how we operate on site. Crews clean up scrap wood daily, keep gates closed so dogs don't wander off, and respect your property while work is underway. Neighbors notice the extra care, and that is why they recommend us.
Standing Behind Our Word
Our BBB accreditation means we run an honest shop. You get a clear itemized breakdown of costs, reasonable project timelines, and upfront answers to your questions before any work begins. No confusing contracts or surprise charges halfway through.
Keeping Your Yard Healthy
Working in mud and heavy rain requires careful ground management. Being DEQ certified means we control site runoff, prevent soil erosion, and haul away scrap material safely. Your grass and garden beds stay protected while we build.
Decks, Fences, and Custom Carpentry
We handle a full range of outdoor wood and composite projects designed around your yard's layout, privacy goals, and soil conditions.
Decks Built for Wet Winters
A well-planned deck extends your living room right out into the yard. We design and frame custom deck structures fitted to your home's layout and natural slope.
Composite Decking
High-grade composite boards resist rot, won't splinter under barefoot walking, and hold up against mold and damp shade with simple cleaning.
Cedar & Wood Decks
Tight-grain Western Red Cedar and pressure-treated framing sealed to protect wood fibers against ground moisture and rot.
Multi-Level & Covered Layouts
Custom stair systems, built-in bench seating, and solid patio covers that let you grill outside even when it's drizzling.
Framing & Structural Footings
Concrete footings poured below frost lines, joists spaced for extra rigidity, and double-flashed house ledgers that protect your siding.
Fences That Stay Straight
A good fence marks your boundary, keeps pets in, and gives you a private space to enjoy your yard. We build solid wood, vinyl, and metal fencing built to withstand winter wind gusts.
Cedar Privacy Fences
Classic board-on-board, picture-frame, and dog-ear styles set on heavy pressure-treated or steel posts with galvanized fasteners.
Vinyl & Metal Options
Clean vinyl panels and steel boundary fences that offer security with minimal maintenance over time.
Custom Built Gates
Heavy-braced frame gates equipped with thick hinges and latches that won't bind up when the ground swells in wet weather.

What Your Neighbors Say
“We had Daniel build a composite deck off our kitchen in Keizer last spring. He walked the whole yard first and pointed out a drainage problem near the house that two other bids had missed. The TimberTech boards look great, the railing is rock solid, and there wasn’t a single screw or scrap left in the grass when they finished.”
“Replaced 140 feet of leaning fence with board-on-board cedar. Crew showed up when they said they would, set every post in concrete, and the line is dead straight. We had that big wind in December and it didn’t budge. Fair price, no surprise add-ons.”
“Our backyard slopes hard toward the pool, and I was worried an aluminum fence would leave big gaps at the bottom. Daniel racked the panels to follow the grade and it looks like it was made for the yard. Gates latch properly and it passed inspection the first time.”
“Our 20-year-old deck was soft in spots and bouncy. Wades Services tore it out, poured new footings, and rebuilt it with proper flashing at the ledger. Daniel handled the permit and the inspector. Rain pushed us back a couple of days but he kept us in the loop the whole time. Highly recommend.”
“Vinyl privacy fence and a double gate for the side yard. What stood out was the little stuff: they kept the gate closed so our dog couldn’t get out, hauled off the old fence the same day, and swept the driveway before they left. Fence hasn’t rattled once in the wind.”
“We wanted a shed that didn’t look like a plastic box dropped in the yard. Daniel matched the siding and roof color to our house and built it on a proper gravel pad so it stays dry. Later had them screen in the back porch too. Same clean, careful work both times.”
