Build Outdoor Spaces That Last

Plan Decks & Outdoor Living in Charleston

Your outdoor space should extend the comfort and function of your home, especially in a climate where you can use it year-round. Matinchek Painting Plus designs and builds decks, porches, and relaxation areas that hold up to Charleston's sun, humidity, and salt air. Each project is shaped around how you live and how your home looks.

This service includes new deck construction, porch upgrades, and outdoor living installations that match your home's architecture. Weather-resistant finishes are applied to protect against UV, moisture, and coastal conditions. The same carpentry skills shown in custom furniture and built-in work are brought to every outdoor build.

How Our Process Works

The process begins with a site visit where the team assesses your yard, discusses layout preferences, and reviews material options suited to Charleston's coastal environment. You'll talk through how you plan to use the space, whether for dining, lounging, or entertaining. Measurements and design ideas are documented on the spot.

Once the design is finalized, Matinchek Painting Plus handles framing, decking, railing installation, and finish application using weather-resistant materials. Each board is leveled and fastened to prevent warping or loosening over time. Clean cuts and tight joints are standard across every build.

Final inspections confirm structural integrity and finish quality before you start using the space. The team ensures railings are secure, surfaces are smooth, and all details align with your vision. You're left with an outdoor area built to last.
