For Bright Ridge Construction, being a deck builder in Wake Forest, NC is not a line on a service map. This is home. Owner Sam Ridge was born and raised in Wake Forest, runs the company from right here in town, and is on your job site every single day. We build custom wood and composite decks across the northern Triangle.
Wake Forest homeowners come to us for two reasons: replacing the tired 1990s and 2000s pressure-treated decks common in older subdivisions, or building the first deck on a brand new backyard. Either way you get honest written pricing and the owner on site, not a crew handed off and forgotten.
Deck Services in Wake Forest
New Deck Construction
Wake Forest's new-construction homes in communities like Holding Village and Wexford Reserve often close with a back door and no deck. We build the first custom deck your backyard has been waiting for.
Total Deck Replacement
Original builder-grade decks in Heritage and Wakefield are now 15 to 25 years old with soft boards and failing fasteners. We tear out the old structure and rebuild it solid from the footings up.
Deck Repair
Wobbly rails, rotted boards, and loose connections make an aging Wake Forest deck unsafe. We inspect the framing, fasteners, and ledger, then repair the scope that keeps your deck safe.
Screen Porches
Wake Forest summers bring heat, humidity, and mosquitoes that shut down an open deck. As a screen porch builder in Wake Forest we add bug-free living space you can actually use at dusk.
Deck Extensions & Additions
Growing families in Wake Forest often outgrow a small deck. We extend your existing structure or add a level for grills, dining, or a screen porch, matched cleanly to what is already there.
Decks Built for Wake Forest Homes
As the company's hometown, Wake Forest is where we do the most work, and it comes in two shapes. In established subdivisions like Heritage and Wakefield, the original pressure-treated decks are now 15 to 25 years old and reaching replacement age, with soft boards and aging connections. These homeowners want a builder who lives down the road to rebuild it right, and that is exactly the work we do best.
The rest is new construction. Communities like Holding Village, Traditions, and Wexford Reserve keep delivering homes on generous lots, many with walkout basements and grade changes, and almost all with a back door that opens to nothing. We build that first custom deck, often paired with steps down the slope or a screen porch for the family's first summer.
Our climate shapes what we recommend too. Wake Forest summers near E. Carroll Joyner Park and the reservoir get humid and mosquito-heavy fast, which is why so many homeowners here add a screen porch for bug-free evenings and lean toward low-maintenance composite over wood they would otherwise have to stain and seal.

Wake Forest Deck Questions
Common questions from Wake Forest homeowners about decks, screen porches, materials, repairs, and what it is like to work with Bright Ridge.
How much does a deck cost in Wake Forest?
Every deck is different, so we do not publish prices. Cost depends on size, material, height off the ground, stairs, and railings, plus your specific site. After we see your Wake Forest project we give you a clear written proposal, and the price you get is the price for your deck. Start with a free written estimate.
Wood or composite deck, which is better?
It depends on your goals, and we walk you through both. Pressure-treated wood is the budget option, but it needs periodic cleaning, staining, and sealing to hold up. Composite is the low-maintenance upgrade we usually recommend: it does not rot and never needs staining. Many Wake Forest homeowners choose composite to skip the yearly upkeep.
Do you build screen porches in Wake Forest?
Yes. Screen porches are one of our core services and a favorite here, because Wake Forest summers get humid and mosquito-heavy. A screen porch turns an open deck into bug-free living space you can enjoy at dusk. Owner Sam Ridge builds it on site personally, the same as our decks.
Do you serve Wake Forest and nearby areas?
Yes. Bright Ridge is based right here in Wake Forest, which is our home town, and Sam is on the job site every day. Beyond Wake Forest we also build in Raleigh, Rolesville, Youngsville, and Franklinton, serving the northern Triangle and the surrounding Wake County area.
Can you replace or repair my existing deck?
Yes to both. For older decks in subdivisions like Heritage and Wakefield we handle full tear-out and rebuild, taking it back to solid footings, framing, and fasteners. If the structure is sound we can repair a targeted scope instead, like rotted boards, loose rails, or failing connections, to make your deck safe again.
What makes Bright Ridge different?
Owner Sam Ridge is on your job site every day, not just at the sale. He is Wake Forest born and raised, brings over 15 years of building experience, and backs every project with a 1-year workmanship warranty. You get honest written pricing and a real local builder. Call or text 919-410-7776.
