Mandarin has been one of Jacksonville’s most established communities for decades — and that history shows up in the outdoor structures behind a lot of homes here. If you’re looking for a deck builder near you in Mandarin, you’re likely replacing a pressure-treated deck that’s been there since the 1990s or early 2000s, or adding a new structure to a home that’s never had one. Either way, Coastal Outdoor Construction handles both, and we’re in Mandarin regularly.
What We See Most Often in Mandarin
The stock of homes in Mandarin — many built in the 1980s and 1990s — means there are a lot of original wood decks reaching the end of their life. After two or three Florida decades, these decks commonly show checking, nail pops, soft spots near posts and stairs, and surface deterioration that staining can no longer fix.
Stop Dreaming.

When we come out for a free inspection, we’ll tell you honestly whether the structure underneath is worth saving or whether a full demo and rebuild is the right move. If the framing is solid, we’ll resurface it. If it’s not, we’ll tell you why a full rebuild gives you better value long-term.
Composite Deck Upgrades in Mandarin
The most common project we do in Mandarin is a full deck replacement — demo the old wood structure and build a new composite deck on the same footprint. Composite decking won’t rot under the live oaks that shade a lot of Mandarin backyards and holds up to the humidity and UV exposure that Florida throws at outdoor structures year-round.
We install Trex, TimberTech, and MoistureShield composite systems. All come with the manufacturer’s 25-year warranty plus our own workmanship warranty covering the installation.
New Deck Builds in Mandarin
We also build new decks for homes that never had one — attached to the back of the house, freestanding over a patio, or connected to pool decks and pergola structures as part of a single outdoor living project. If you want a covered section over part of the deck, we can build that at the same time and avoid a second mobilization fee later.

Depending on your exact address, Mandarin sits in either Duval County or St. Johns County. We pull the right permit for your location and manage the inspection schedule. See our Mandarin deck building service page for more detail.
