Custom wood and composite decks that expand your living space.
A new deck transforms your San Antonio backyard from a patch of caliche and limestone into genuine outdoor living space. Whether you're on an Alamo Heights lot with mature oaks or a newer Stone Oak property, our custom-built wood and composite decks handle the local climate and soil conditions without the settling, shifting, or rot that catches unprepared homeowners off guard.
San Antonio's alkaline, caliche-heavy soil and limestone shelves demand decks built with proper footings set deep and level. We build ours that way. We also account for the Texas sun and heat that can warp poorly finished wood and stress railings. Your deck gets weather-ready sealing, proper drainage, and the kind of framing that stays solid through summer heat and occasional ice.
Corral Bros is family-owned, licensed, and insured. We start with a free on-site estimate-usually scheduled within 48 hours-where we look at your soil, slope, trees, and what you actually want to do out there. Then we build it right, whether that's composite decking that needs almost no upkeep or beautiful treated wood with character. Call us at 737-404-9343 to get rolling.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your San Antonio property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and decks that holds up to Bexar County conditions. Available as a one-time project or part of an ongoing plan.
Composite decking resists Central Texas sun, heat and moisture with very little upkeep and lasts longer, while wood costs less up front but needs regular sealing and staining. We build both and help you weigh cost against long-term maintenance for your space.
Deck cost depends on size, materials (wood vs composite), height, and features like railings, steps and lighting. We design to your budget and give a clear, itemized quote, building on proper footings and framing so the deck is safe and lasts.
Caliche and limestone create uneven bearing. If footings don't go deep enough or aren't set level from the start, your deck settles unevenly. We dig past the caliche, set proper footings on firm soil, and use concrete to lock them in place. It prevents the settling and warping that destroys railings and steps.
Composite doesn't warp, rot, or split the way untreated wood does under our summer sun and occasional freeze. It won't splinter your feet or your grandkids' hands. The tradeoff: it costs more upfront but needs no staining or sealing. Wood is beautiful and cheaper to start, but plan on maintenance every couple years.
Cost depends on size, material, soil conditions, and complexity. A modest pressure-treated deck runs less than composite; custom designs with built-in lighting or extensive railings cost more. We give free estimates after looking at your property. Call 737-404-9343 and we'll walk through what your deck actually costs.
Yes. Slopes and limestone shelves are common in Stone Oak and the Hill Country edge. We adjust footing depth, add extra support posts, and sometimes reconfigure the layout to use the terrain instead of fighting it. It takes planning, but we've built plenty of decks on challenging Bexar County ground.
We visit your property, check soil, drainage, sun exposure, and what you want to do out there. We design it to fit your lot and climate, not a generic plan. Kits skip these steps. Our estimate is honest and obligation-free. Call 737-404-9343 to schedule one.
