Deckmaster Fine Decks, Inc. designs and builds decks to blend with the architecture of its customers’ houses and integrate with their landscapes, which results in outdoor living spaces that are inviting, durable and functional. The company also designs and builds patio covers, and it offers expert deck repair and refinishing that can add years of life to existing decks.

Founder Weston Leavens started building decks and patio covers in the early 1980s, and today he puts his decades of inventiveness and award-winning skill to work creating outdoor living spaces throughout the Bay Area. Mr. Leavens is also the inventor of the revolutionary Deckmaster Hidden Fastening System, which was the first hidden fastener on the market. “We always use hidden fastening for our decks,” he says. “Whether they’re ultra low-maintenance composites or thermally modified hardwood, hidden fastening gives decks the very best appearance and longevity.”

Mr. Leavens is a past winner of the National Redwood Deck contest, and in 2008 he won the “Build a Deck, Win a Deck” contest sponsored by the California Redwood Association.
