Experience the timeless beauty and natural warmth of a professionally installed wood deck that transforms your outdoor space.
Wood has been the traditional choice for decks for generations, and for good reason. Nothing matches the natural beauty, warmth, and character of real wood. A wood deck adds charm and elegance to your home that synthetic materials simply cannot replicate. The natural grain patterns, rich colors, and authentic feel make wood a favorite among homeowners who appreciate classic aesthetics.
At Timber N Tread Rialto Decks, we specialize in building high-quality wood decks that enhance your home and provide years of enjoyment. We serve homeowners throughout Rialto and the surrounding Inland Empire, and we understand what it takes to build a wood deck that stands up to Southern California's climate. We use premium materials and proven construction techniques to ensure your deck is beautiful, durable, and built to last.
Wood is also a renewable, eco-friendly material. When sourced responsibly, it has a lower environmental impact than synthetic alternatives. Wood decks can be stained or painted in any color you like, giving you complete control over the final appearance. Whether you prefer a natural finish that highlights the wood's grain or a bold color that makes a statement, wood gives you the flexibility to create your vision.
Not all wood is created equal. Different species offer different benefits in terms of appearance, durability, and cost. Here are the most popular wood types for decks:

Building a wood deck requires skill, experience, and attention to detail. Proper installation ensures your deck is safe, stable, and long-lasting. Here is how we approach every wood deck project:
We start with a free consultation to understand your vision. We measure your space, discuss your needs, and create a custom design that fits your property and lifestyle. We help you choose the right wood species, size, layout, and features to make your deck perfect for you.
We handle all permits and ensure your deck complies with local building codes. We prepare the site by clearing vegetation, leveling the ground, and setting up the foundation. We install concrete footings or piers that support the deck's weight and prevent settling or shifting.
We build the deck's framework using pressure-treated lumber for the joists, beams, and posts. Proper framing is critical because it supports the entire deck. We follow precise spacing requirements and use heavy-duty fasteners and hardware to ensure maximum strength and stability.
Once the frame is complete, we install the decking boards. We space them correctly to allow for drainage and expansion. We use high-quality screws or hidden fasteners for a clean, professional look. We add railings, stairs, and trim to complete the project. We can also apply a protective stain or sealant to preserve the wood's beauty and extend its life.
Wood decks require regular maintenance to keep them looking their best and protect them from the elements. Here is what you need to know:
Clean your deck once or twice a year to remove dirt, debris, and mildew. Use a deck cleaner or a mild soap and water solution. Avoid pressure washing at high settings, which can damage the wood fibers.
Apply a stain or sealant every two to three years to protect the wood from moisture, UV rays, and wear. Staining enhances the wood's natural color and provides a protective barrier. We offer professional staining and sealing services if you prefer to leave it to the experts.
Check your deck annually for loose boards, popped nails, or signs of rot. Addressing small issues early prevents bigger, more expensive problems later. We can perform inspections and minor repairs to keep your deck in top condition.
With proper care, a wood deck can last 15 to 20 years or longer. We provide maintenance tips and guidance when we complete your installation so you know how to protect your investment.
