Featured Project | Dundas, Ontario
Deck Construction for a 130-Year-Old Dundas Home
This Dundas project joined a new exterior deck and stairs to a major sunroom renovation in a home original to the neighbourhood. The work required structural repairs, a new floor system and a new opening for a glass sliding door before the exterior connection could be built.
Almas Construction coordinated plans and permits, temporary support, framing, insulation, concrete repair, drywall and deck construction as one connected renovation scope.

Decks, Fences and Custom Outdoor Structures
Every project starts with the site, intended use and existing conditions—not a one-size-fits-all package.
Deck Construction & Rebuilds
New decks, replacement decks, structural repairs, framing, deck boards, stairs, landings, guards and railings. Covered decks and patio roofs can be planned as part of the overall structure.
Privacy Fences & Gates
New wood privacy fencing, replacement sections and gates laid out around property conditions, access, grade and the way the yard needs to function.
Sheds, Pool Houses & Garages
Custom detached structures, including sheds, pool houses, workshops and garages, with foundations, framing, roofs, doors, windows and interior options coordinated to the approved scope.
Design & Permit Coordination
From Site Review and Drawings to Finished Details
Deck and accessory-structure requirements depend on the municipality, project size, height, attachment, roof, location and property conditions. We help define the scope and coordinate the plans, permit information and construction sequence required for the work.

What a Deck or Fence Estimate Should Define
A useful estimate should make the major construction assumptions visible. That helps homeowners compare the actual scope—not only the final number.
For existing structures, concealed decay or inadequate framing may only become visible after demolition. Those possibilities should be discussed before work begins.

Deck & Fence Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a building permit for a deck in Hamilton?
Many deck projects require a permit. In Hamilton, an attached deck requires a permit regardless of size, while detached-deck requirements depend on factors such as area, height and whether the deck is covered. Zoning, grading or conservation approvals may also apply. Requirements should be confirmed for the property and final scope before work begins.
Can you rebuild an existing deck?
Yes. The first step is determining whether the footings, ledger, posts, beams and joists can be retained safely or whether a full rebuild is the better option. Structural conditions hidden by decking are reviewed as they become accessible.
Can a roof be added over a deck or patio?
Yes, when the site and existing building can support an appropriate design. A covered deck or patio roof normally requires structural planning for foundations, posts, beams, rafters, house connections, snow loads and drainage, along with permits where required.
Do you build privacy fences and gates?
Yes. Fence work can include new privacy fencing, replacement sections and gates. Layout should account for property boundaries, local fence rules, utilities, access, grade and any pool-enclosure requirements.
Do you build sheds, pool houses and garages?
Yes. Almas Construction can coordinate foundations, framing, roofing, doors, windows and interior work for custom detached structures. Permit and design requirements vary by size, use, location and whether plumbing or other services are included.
What should I send for an estimate?
Send the property address, a short description of the desired project, approximate dimensions, current photographs, inspiration images and your preferred timing. If you have a survey, drawings or permit documents, include those as well.
