Warmth and Functionality
Woodwork adds a natural warmth and vertical dimension to the landscape that stone and plants cannot replicate. Our skilled carpenters build custom structures that serve as the focal points of your backyard. Whether it is a sprawling entertainment deck, a privacy fence, or an architectural pergola, we build with precision and durability in mind.
Material Selection
We help you navigate the choices between natural woods like Western Red Cedar and modern composite materials.
- Cedar: Prized for its natural rot resistance and beautiful aroma, cedar is the classic choice for West Coast gardens.
- Composite: Brands like Trex and TimberTech offer low-maintenance solutions that never need staining and resist fading.
- Pressure Treated: A cost-effective option for structural framing and retaining walls.
Custom Craftsmanship
Every project is custom-built on site. We don’t use pre-fab panels. This allows us to follow the unique contours of your land and creates a truly integrated look.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose between cedar, pressure-treated, and composite for an outdoor structure?
Cedar is the West Coast classic—naturally rot-resistant, beautiful grain, and ages to a soft grey if left unstained. Pressure-treated is best kept for structural framing and below-grade posts where looks don't matter. Composite (Trex, TimberTech) costs more upfront but eliminates staining and refinishing, which pays off over a 25-year lifespan. We walk through the trade-offs based on your budget, sun exposure, and how much maintenance you want to do.
What does a typical outdoor carpentry project cost in Vancouver?
Fences usually run $45–$100 per linear foot depending on height and material. Cedar decks start around $45 per square foot and composite decks from $60–$90 per square foot once framing, footings, and railings are included. Pergolas generally fall between $6,000 and $25,000 depending on size and whether they're freestanding or attached. Every quote is firm and itemized—no surprises later.
How long does a carpentry build take from quote to completion?
Most fence projects wrap in 3–7 days on site. Decks average 2–4 weeks depending on size, railing type, and whether we're doing demolition of an old structure. Pergolas and larger timber work can take 1–3 weeks. We book 4–8 weeks out in peak season (April through September), so getting on the schedule early makes a big difference.
How does Vancouver's wet climate affect cedar and wood structures?
Our rain and humidity are tough on unprotected wood—posts especially. We set every post in concrete below the frost line, use stainless or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners, and flash the tops of ledger boards so water doesn't sit on end grain. A good stain or penetrating oil every 2–3 years keeps cedar looking warm instead of silver. Done right, a cedar fence or deck here lasts 15–25 years.
Do you subcontract carpentry work or build in-house?
All our outdoor carpentry is built by in-house Landscapify crews—no day-labour subs. Every project is covered by our structural warranty (5 years on decks and pergolas, 2 years on fences), and we pull permits ourselves when the City of Vancouver or your municipality requires one. You deal with the same foreman from layout day to final walkthrough.
