Deck builders in Barrie.

Barrie, population 156,000, is the gateway to Ontario's cottage country (Muskoka) and sits on the shores of Kempenfelt Bay (Lake Simcoe). The city experiences colder winters than the GTA with heavier snowfall and a frost line of 1.5m (5 feet). Barrie's rapid growth in the south end is driving new deck construction. Many Barrie residents also own cottage properties in Muskoka and the Kawarthas, creating a strong market for both primary residence and seasonal decks. Labour costs average $16–$24 per sq ft.

Ontario's 100+ annual freeze-thaw cycles test every decking material. Composite and PVC handle this stress better than wood, which tends to crack and splinter after a few winters.
