Detailed information
Quality craftsmanship in every detail
A successful project requires thorough preparation, the right choice of materials, and skilled execution adapted to local Gothenburg conditions.
Solid foundations adapted to Gothenburg soils
A deck is only as reliable as its foundation. Gothenburg’s terrain demands robust anchorage – from rocky outcrops to softer clay soils. We adapt footings using frost-depth concrete piers, ground screws, or heavy rock anchors with expansion bolts. Support beams and joists are dimensioned generously to ensure a rigid walking surface for years to come.
- ✓ Thorough site inspection and dimensioning to Swedish building codes
- ✓ Rock anchors, ground screws, or cast piers based on site conditions
- ✓ Concealed deck fasteners or straight surface screw lines to your taste
Durable material choices: Treated wood, larch, or composite
We guide your material choice based on architecture, budget, and desired maintenance. Classic Swedish pressure-treated pine is tough, economical, and suited to our humid coastal climate. For a more natural aesthetic, we install larch or heat-treated timber (ThermoWood) with attractive grain. For minimal upkeep, we fit composite decking with hidden fasteners.
- ✓ Guidance on timber species, dimensions, and maintenance
- ✓ Integrated details including perimeter trim, steps, and lighting
- ✓ ROT deduction handled directly on your invoice under current rules

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Answers to common questions regarding process, quotes, and work in Gothenburg.
Do I need a building permit to build a deck?
For detached and semi-detached homes, building permits are usually not required if the deck is built within 3.6 meters of the house, is no higher than 1.8 meters above ground, and is positioned at least 4.5 meters from property lines (or closer with written neighbor consent). We help you navigate local zoning rules.
Which decking timber should I choose?
Pressure-treated pine is cost-effective, durable, and resists West Coast weather well. Larch offers a natural, chemical-free alternative with attractive grain. Composite involves higher initial cost but requires no oiling and cleans easily with water.
How long does it take to build the deck?
A standard residential deck of 30–50 m² typically takes 3 to 5 work days from groundwork to completed deck with stairs and railings.
Can I use the ROT tax deduction for deck building?
Yes, labor costs for building a deck directly connected to your primary residence are eligible for ROT tax deduction under current regulations. We deduct it directly on your invoice.
