Deck Building in Franklin Park, FL
Franklin Park lies about 5 miles inland in Broward County, an unincorporated community about 2.8 miles northwest of Fort Lauderdale. Its housing stock follows the same pre-war and mid-century pattern as neighboring Fort Lauderdale. That mix shapes how we approach deck building here — below is what actually matters for decks on a Franklin Park property.
Why Franklin Park homeowners choose us

Those homes reward good carpentry, so we focus on door and window replacement, new baseboards and trim, wood rot repair, decks, framing, and drywall, all finished with quality paint. Our family-owned, insured team has served the area since 2004 and provides free estimates.
What decks in Franklin Park actually involves
Local conditions change the job. Here's what's specific to Franklin Park, Broward County.
Broward HVHZ requirements
Franklin Park is in Broward County's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so an attached deck or a roofed structure over it is engineered and inspected to HVHZ uplift detail. We build to that standard rather than discovering it at inspection.
Salt-air exposure in Franklin Park
About 5 miles inland, Franklin Park decks see moderate salt plus heavy summer rain. Hot-dip galvanized hardware and an annual reseal keep them sound.
Permits and inspections
Franklin Park is unincorporated, so deck permits and inspections go through Broward County rather than a municipal building department.
Where Franklin Park sits
Franklin Park is an unincorporated pocket of Broward County about 2.8 miles northwest of Fort Lauderdale, bordered by Wilton Manors, Lauderdale Lakes and Lauderhill. Because it has no city hall of its own, decks here is permitted and inspected by the county — and we already run the same crews through the surrounding municipalities, so scheduling doesn't change.
HOA and community rules
Some Franklin Park communities require approval for a new deck, particularly for anything visible from the street or a neighboring lot.
