Port Saint Lucie Deck & Fence builds pool decks, composite decks, pergolas, and fences for Sebastian homeowners along the Indian River Lagoon. We have served the Treasure Coast since 2016 and reply to every inquiry within one business day.
Sebastian pools get used year-round, and a pool deck that sits on sandy, moisture-laden soil near the lagoon will crack and shift if it was not built with that in mind. Our pool deck construction service includes proper base preparation and drainage so the slab stays level through Florida's wet seasons.
Salt air from the Indian River Lagoon corrodes metal fasteners and accelerates wood decay faster than most homeowners expect. Composite decking handles the moisture and UV exposure that come with living in Sebastian, and it will not need the annual staining and sealing that wood requires.
Most of Sebastian's homes were built between the 1970s and 2000s, and any wood deck built during that era has had decades of lagoon air, storm seasons, and Florida sun working against it. Soft boards, rusted hardware, and posts that have shifted are all signs it is time for a professional assessment.
Sebastian gets strong afternoon sun and regular sea breezes off the lagoon, and a pergola gives your outdoor space real shade and structure without closing it off. It is also one of the most cost-effective ways to improve your backyard before taking on a larger deck or enclosure project.
Being close to the Indian River Lagoon means mosquitoes and no-see-ums are a real part of outdoor life in Sebastian from spring through fall. A screened enclosure lets you use your porch or deck comfortably in the evenings without resorting to chemicals or fans.
Sebastian homeowners near the lagoon see wood fences deteriorate faster than those a few miles inland because salt air dries out and grays the wood quickly. Vinyl holds up better in waterfront settings, while pressure-treated wood with a quality sealer works well for properties further from the water.
Sebastian sits along the Indian River Lagoon, and the combination of salt air, high humidity, and sandy soil creates conditions that wear outdoor structures harder than most of Florida. Metal fasteners corrode faster near the lagoon. Wood absorbs moisture and dries unevenly under the Florida sun, which leads to cracking and warping on a compressed timeline. Soil near the water holds moisture and shifts more than inland properties, which puts extra stress on concrete slabs and deck footings that were not set with that in mind. Most of Sebastian's housing stock was built between the 1970s and early 2000s, which means many homes now have original decks or outdoor structures that have been through decades of these conditions.
Sebastian is also in a hurricane-prone zone. The city sits at the northern end of the Treasure Coast and was hit hard during the 2004 storm season, when Frances and Jeanne both passed through this area. Deck structures, pergolas, and enclosures that were not built to Florida's wind-load codes showed the difference immediately. Everything we build in Sebastian is designed to meet current Indian River County wind requirements, which is not a technicality - it is the baseline for building anything outdoors in this part of Florida.
Our crew works throughout Sebastian regularly, and we understand the local conditions that affect deck builder work here. Permits for deck construction in Sebastian go through the City of Sebastian Building Department, and we handle the submittal and review process so homeowners do not have to manage that themselves.
Sebastian is a quiet, mostly residential city of about 26,000 people at the northern edge of the Treasure Coast. The Indian River Lagoon runs along the city's eastern edge and defines the character of the waterfront neighborhoods there. Sebastian Inlet State Park sits just north of the city and is a landmark that nearly every Sebastian resident knows. US-1 runs through the center of the city, with older waterfront neighborhoods to the east and newer subdivisions further west. Most homes in Sebastian are single-family concrete block construction, which is standard for this part of Indian River County.
We serve all of Sebastian and the surrounding area, including nearby Fellsmere to the west and Fort Pierce to the south.
Reach out by phone or through our contact form and we will get back to you within one business day. Have an idea of what you want and where it will go - we will handle the rest from there.
We come out to your Sebastian property, measure the space, and talk through materials and options. We give you a written estimate with no pressure - that is the number we build to, not a starting point for negotiation.
We submit the plans and pull the permit through the City of Sebastian Building Department. Once approved, we schedule your project and get to work - you do not need to be home for every day of construction.
After construction, the city inspector does a final walkthrough to confirm the work matches the approved plans. We clean up the site and walk you through everything before we leave.

(772) 281-0572Sebastian is a city of about 26,000 people at the northern end of Florida's Treasure Coast, named for the Spanish treasure ships that sank offshore in 1715. The city sits along the Indian River Lagoon, an estuary that runs along the eastern edge of the city and gives the area its waterfront identity. Sebastian Inlet State Park, just north of town, is one of the most visited state parks in Florida and a central landmark for the community. The city is part of Indian River County and sits between Vero Beach to the south and Brevard County to the north.
Most of Sebastian's residential neighborhoods are made up of single-family homes built between the 1970s and the early 2000s, with concrete block construction standard throughout. Lots tend to be modest in size, with mature trees and palms that have grown in over decades. The city has a predominantly owner-occupied housing market with a relatively older median age, reflecting a community of long-term residents and retirees. Homeowners here take care of their properties - and living close to the lagoon means outdoor structures need materials and methods that hold up to salt air and moisture. Nearby Vero Beach to the south shares many of the same coastal building conditions, and we serve that community as well.
