Create a Deck Built Around the Way You Live
A custom deck provides more usable square footage for your home, providing a space to enjoy your morning coffee, host family and friends, or relax outdoors at the end of the day. For homeowners throughout Philadelphia and Southeastern Pennsylvania, Five Star Contractors designs and builds decks that complement the home, fit the property, and support the way you want to use your outdoor space.
Since 2000, our locally owned and family-operated company has helped homeowners improve their homes with exterior remodeling solutions built around quality materials, thoughtful planning, and skilled workmanship. From smaller backyard decks behind Philadelphia-area homes to larger outdoor living spaces throughout the suburbs, we apply the same building science principles to every project.
Custom Deck Design for Philadelphia-Area Homes
Every home and homeowner has different goals for an outdoor living space. Some families want a simple area for grilling and relaxing, while others need a larger design with multiple levels, seating areas, or features that make outdoor entertaining easier.
Five Star Contractors builds custom decks designed around your property, including:
Ground-level decks that create a seamless connection between your indoor and outdoor spaces
Raised decks for homes with elevated entrances or sloped properties
Multi-level deck designs that add usable space and visual interest
Custom layouts that incorporate railings, stairs, lighting, and other finishing details
Our team considers your home’s architecture, property layout, and how you plan to use the space before recommending a design. The result is a deck that feels like a natural extension of your home.
Types of Decks We Install in Philadelphia-Area Homes
No two homes, or homeowners, are alike, and neither are our decks. We offer a wide variety of materials, designs, and finishes to match any aesthetic, performance need, or budget.
Our most popular decking options include:
Wood Decking
For homeowners who love the timeless look of natural materials, wood decking remains a classic choice. It offers warmth, character, and a tactile feel that can’t be beat. We source our lumber from trusted suppliers and choose species that hold up well in Pennsylvania’s changing seasons. With the right care and occasional refinishing, a wood deck can look beautiful and last for many years.
Composite Decking
Composite decking has become a popular choice for Philadelphia-area homeowners who want the look of wood without the same level of ongoing maintenance. These materials are designed to resist common concerns like moisture damage, fading, and warping while maintaining their appearance through changing seasons.
Five Star Contractors installs TimberTech decking, a trusted manufacturer known for durable composite and PVC decking products. TimberTech offers a variety of styles and finishes, allowing homeowners to create an outdoor space that matches their home while reducing long-term upkeep.

Reviews
We used Five Star Contractors initially for siding replacement and stucco remediation. Because of their excellent work we had them return a year later to replace our aging roof and install new gutters and downspouts. The management team and crews on both jobs were professional, polite and respectful of our property and our neighbors. As their name says... their work is 5 Stars!
Five Star remediated our failing stucco and repaired extensive hidden damage. They also replaced all doors and windows. Their crews were professional, friendly and respectful. We were impressed with their ability to replace all the windows and doors without creating a mess, and they replaced all trim and plantation shutters seamlessly. Robert was frequently on site, and he offered excellent design suggestions throughout the project. We recommend Five Star without reservations. You will not be disappointed.
We chose five star and are so glad we did! When we purchased a home that needed a full stucco remediation we interviewed and obtained quotes from many companies. Five Stars quality of work and professionalism really stood out among the rest. They were easy to work with, attentive to detail, responsive and fully delivered going above and beyond. They are not the cheapest company but you get what you pay for, and we got the best!
We had a great experience with Five Star Contractors when they fully replaced our siding. Discovering that our house needed major repairs was a stressful experience, but from our first meeting with Matt and Michal we felt at ease. From start to finish, they were incredibly communicative, always taking the time to answer our questions thoroughly. What really stood out was how they walked us through the science behind proper construction techniques, helping us understand not just what they were doing, but why it mattered. Throughout the process we had multiple roadblocks on our end, and they were very understanding and flexible. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for skilled, transparent, and knowledgeable professionals.
Best contractor in the area. Attention to detail and very trustworthy. They do the job right and stand behind all their work. The crew works hard and their goal is to make you happy, whatever your needs are. Five Star will at least meet, but probably exceed your expectations as they have for me. They are neat and clean up the site every night before they leave, even using a magnet to find loose nails because I have 4 dogs. I couldn’t be happier with them and I am not easy to please. Michal, thank you for all you do.
Five star did an excellent job with our stucco remediation. The quality of the work is exceptional. Michael and Robert are very involved with the day to day operation and came up with excellent ideas to make our vision become reality. Every person on the team was a pleasure to work with. They were on time, respectful and professional . In particular Jesse is absolutely exceptional in everything he does. We wholeheartedly recommend Five Star!
