Expert Deck Builders Serving Arlington, Washington
Arlington homeowners trust New Life Rockeries for custom deck construction that's built to last in the Pacific Northwest climate. We've been building decks across Arlington and surrounding communities since 1975, and we understand the materials, the terrain, and the craftsmanship that make a deck stand strong for decades.
Our Arlington deck installations use premium pressure-treated lumber, Western red cedar, and composite decking materials selected for their durability in Washington's wet climate. Every deck is engineered with proper footings, framing, and drainage to ensure it stays solid and beautiful for decades.
Whether you're looking for a simple ground-level deck, a multi-level entertaining space, or a covered deck with a pergola, our team handles everything from permits to final cleanup. We'll walk your Arlington property with you, understand your goals, and provide a detailed written estimate before any work begins.
Our crews are licensed, bonded, and insured in Washington State. We never ask for payment until the job is done to your satisfaction.
Arlington, situated in Snohomish County, often features challenging soil conditions, including glacial till and clay soils. These dense, poorly draining soils, combined with the region's hilly topography, can lead to significant drainage issues and increased hydrostatic pressure behind retaining walls. Frost heave is also a concern due to the climate, necessitating robust wall designs to prevent structural damage.
The City of Arlington Building Division requires a permit for any retaining wall exceeding four feet in height, measured from the bottom of the footing to the top of the wall. A permit is also necessary for walls four feet or less if they support a surcharge, such as a driveway or structure.
A homeowner in the Cascade Ridge neighborhood recently faced erosion issues on a sloped backyard. Our team designed and installed a multi-tiered rockery system, effectively stabilizing the hillside and creating usable, level garden spaces. The project not only addressed the erosion but also enhanced the property's aesthetic appeal and functionality.

What We Build

Custom Wood Decks
Premium pressure-treated and cedar wood decks built to last in the Pacific Northwest climate for Arlington homeowners. We design and build decks in any size, shape, and configuration — from simple rectangular platforms to complex multi-level designs with built-in seating and planters.

Composite Decks
Low-maintenance composite decking in Arlington using premium brands like Trex, TimberTech, and Fiberon. Composite decks resist fading, staining, and scratching, and never need staining or sealing — ideal for Pacific Northwest homeowners who want a beautiful deck without ongoing maintenance.

Multi-Level Decks
Multi-level deck systems in Arlington that maximize your outdoor living space on sloped Pacific Northwest properties. We design multi-level decks that create distinct zones for dining, lounging, and entertaining, connected by stairs and walkways.

Covered Decks & Pergolas
Covered deck structures and pergolas in Arlington that extend your outdoor season in the Pacific Northwest. We build attached and freestanding pergolas, shade structures, and covered decks that provide protection from rain and sun while maintaining an open, airy feel.

Deck Repair & Restoration
Assessment and repair of existing Arlington decks that have rotted, warped, or become structurally compromised. We replace individual boards, repair framing, rebuild railings, and restore decks to safe, beautiful condition — or provide a full replacement estimate when needed.
