"They finished our composite deck two days ahead of schedule and hauled everything away when they were done. The railing is solid - I pushed on it hard and it did not move at all. Very happy with how it turned out."
Marcus T., Barstow - Composite deck installation
"We had a wood deck that was falling apart after years in the Barstow sun. They replaced the whole surface and added a pergola at the same time. Now we actually use our backyard in the evenings instead of avoiding it."
Linda R., Victorville - Deck repair and replacement
"The crew handled the HOA paperwork and the city permit - I did not have to do anything except sign off on the design. The vinyl fence went up fast and looks exactly like the photo they showed us."
James K., Apple Valley - Vinyl fence installation

Composite boards with a UV-resistant cap layer outperform standard wood in intense sun - they resist fading and surface cracking that plague untreated wood in Barstow summers. Lighter board colors stay cooler underfoot when temperatures top 105 degrees.
Yes. The hard calcium-rich layer common in Barstow-area soil requires specialized digging equipment to set footings properly. Contractors unfamiliar with local conditions may undersize footings, causing the deck to shift over time.
Yes - most decks over 30 inches off the ground or attached to the house require a permit from the City of Barstow or San Bernardino County. An unpermitted deck can delay or kill a home sale. The North American Deck and Railing Association has guidance on deck safety and permit requirements homeowners should know before they build.
Fall through early spring is ideal in Barstow. Summer installations are possible but slower - some adhesives and fasteners perform better below 90 degrees, and crews work shorter days in triple-digit heat. Book in February or March for the best shot at a spring finish.
Plan on sealing every one to two years - not the three-year schedule common in wetter California climates. Barstow's low humidity (often below 20% in summer) dries out wood finishes faster than almost anywhere else in the state.
A well-built, permitted deck is a genuine selling point for buyers in the High Desert, where outdoor entertaining is a year-round possibility. According to the National Association of Realtors, outdoor improvements consistently rank among the projects with the strongest impact on buyer interest.

Learn more about usA good rule of thumb is to size the deck to how you plan to use it. A dining area for four people needs roughly 100 square feet. Add more for a lounge zone or built-in seating. Oversizing adds cost without adding comfort.
In Barstow's climate, composite decking is the lower-maintenance choice over time. Wood costs less upfront but needs resealing every one to two years and is more vulnerable to UV damage. Many homeowners find composite pays for itself within five to seven years of avoided maintenance.
A sloped yard often benefits from a raised or multi-level deck that creates a flat usable surface right off the back door. Slopes also affect footing depth and cost, so make sure any estimate you get accounts for the actual grade of your lot.
The American Wood Council publishes free guidance on residential deck construction standards that is useful reading before you hire. When you are ready to move forward, call (442) 295-3866 and we will schedule your free on-site estimate.
Barstow, California sits at the crossroads of Interstates 15 and 40 in the heart of the Mojave Desert, with a population of roughly 24,000 residents. The city is home to older ranch-style neighborhoods, many built between the 1940s and 1980s, that reflect the town's history as a railroad junction and gateway to the High Desert. Most homes in Barstow sit on modest lots with desert landscaping, and the long, sunny days make outdoor living a genuine priority for residents here.
The area has strong local landmarks that most residents know well. Barstow Station, the iconic rest stop built inside retired railroad cars off I-15, is recognized by almost every driver between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. Just a few miles east, Calico Ghost Town draws visitors to its preserved silver mining history. The Mojave River runs through town - usually dry but flowing after the monsoon storms that arrive each August - and the nearby Fort Irwin National Training Center about 37 miles northeast brings a steady community of military families to the area.
Barstow Deck & Fence has been building in Barstow long enough to know what the local desert climate demands - from setting footings through the hard caliche soil to selecting materials that hold up through summer highs above 105 degrees. If your backyard needs a deck, fence, or covered patio that works year-round in this climate, give us a call.
