Check out our About Us page to learn about Bedrock Construction and our core values.
Our Core Values Make all the Difference
Our core values were established back in 1991 and were derived from Corrie Massie’s experience as a tile setter.
Much like laying tile, square by square, a successful renovation requires:
1. the tiles to follow a design (organization)
2. the tiles to be spaced and levelled (meticulous)
3. the room to be prepared (clean)
4. the tile setter to complete the job according to specification (accountability)
“Bedrock is more than trades people….they are artists. I have had Bedrock do two bathroom renovations and they re-tiled my basement too, helping shake off some serious seventies vibes across the board. If you need a design collaborator and a skilled company to work with Bedrock is the company to hire.”

FAQ
How Much Does it Cost to Build a Deck in Calgary?
Prices for your dream deck in the City of Calgary vary greatly, as you would expect. There are a large number of different factors that affect the overall cost of building a new deck or upgrading an existing deck.
A rough guide to pricing would be from $21.0 to $71.0 per square foot. A standard 12' x 4' deck cost from $3,528 to $11,928. Of course, there are other issues currently like supply and demand issues with supply chains, and the results of inflation on materials and labour. Calgary deck builders will be able to give you more accurate pricing for your own deck, or custom deck as you walk through the deck designing and deck building process.
Another issue that most people don't think about when pricing a deck is the planning and foundation requirements. Creating a solid foundation for your deck to sit on is critical so that it doesn't sink. Each deck and each back or front yard has different requirements and different environmental factors. Part of your deck cost will also be hiring your contractor.
How Much Does it Cost to Replace a Deck in Calgary?
Replacing a deck in Calgary has a similar price range. You should end up saving a little bit of money if your foundation piles are being reused, and are appropriate for the job. Demolition and removal of the old deck is another issue. If the contractor does it that will be an extra charge, if you do it yourself, you may be able to save a little money upfront.
Do you need a Permit to Build a Deck in Calgary?
Yes, you will require a building permit if your deck height is over 0.6m (approximately two feet) above grade at any point. You are building a covered deck such as an enclosed sundeck, a deck with open rafters or a gazebo (this is considered an addition and may require a Development Permit).
How Much Does Composite Decking Cost in Calgary?
When Is a good time to Start the Project in a City like Calgary?
The best time to start your deck in a city like Calgary is after the ground has thawed. The ground usually freezes up to 6-7 feet deep during the winter and that needs to thaw so you can create holes for your piles. Powerful machines can dig through some of that deep frost, but it may cause movement in the spring and summer. The best time for these types of projects is in spring and early summer.
The other option is to wait till last fall when prices might be a little lower, and the winter hasn't set in yet. You will need to wait till the following year to enjoy your new deck fully, but it may work for some who have a schedule that requires that.
Do I need a Permit for my Deck in Calgary?
Bedrock Construction will help you with each step of the process during your project. We have experts who make sure that everything is taken care of. Most small deck upgrades like paint do NOT require a permit from the city of Calgary.
However as mentioned above depending on the type, size and height of your deck you will need a permit. We can help you with this process and help you make sure that all of the required documents are in place.
Will my new Deck affect my Property Taxes?
The answer to this question is maybe but most likely not. The Property assessment corporation typically assigns a value to a house in a neighbourhood based on value and square footage.
The building and development permit office doesn't share information with the assessment office so just like basement developments they don't add decks to the value calculation. However, a special assessment to your home or disclosure to the assessment office of upgrades can increase your property tax because of the increase in home value.
