Why Brick Homeowners Choose Gambrick

A deck should feel like part of your home, not an add-on. That’s what we’ve been building in Brick and across Ocean County for more than 40 years.

Shore towns like Brick bring unique challenges—salt air, sandy soil, and shifting weather. We’ve built decks on waterfront homes near Barnegat Bay, in Baywood and Shore Acres, and on older houses in Herbertsville. Each one is designed to look great and stand up to the local climate.

We also take care of permits and approvals, so the process is simple. You’ll work with the same small team from start to finish, with clear communication the whole way.

“We live on the Metedeconk River and needed a deck that could handle the salt air. Gambrick helped us choose the right materials and designed something that fits our yard perfectly. It’s now our favorite place to hang out.”
— Sarah L., Brick, NJ

Every deck we build is tailored to your home and how you plan to use the space—whether that’s cookouts, quiet evenings, or low-maintenance living.

Decks Designed for Brick Homes & Shore Weather

Brick experiences it all—humid summers, salt air from Barnegat Bay, and the occasional nor’easter in winter. That means decks here need to be built with materials and designs that can handle the coastal environment while staying safe, strong, and attractive over time.

Popular deck options in Brick include:

  • Pressure-Treated Wood Decks: A classic, budget-friendly option.
  • Composite Decks: Low-maintenance and resistant to fading, splintering, and moisture.
  • PVC Decks: Fully synthetic and extremely durable, ideal for homes near the Metedeconk River, Shore Acres, or Baywood where salt and humidity are constant.
  • Hardwood Decks: Premium woods like Ipe or Mahogany bring a rich, timeless look with proper care.
  • Multi-Level Decks: Perfect for sloped yards or larger backyards, creating separate areas for dining, lounging, or entertaining.
  • Wraparound Decks: Expand your living space and enjoy views from multiple sides of your home.
  • Poolside & Backyard Decks: Custom-built to integrate with pools, patios, or outdoor kitchens.
  • Custom Designs: Every home in Brick is unique, so we tailor each deck to your layout, style, and how you plan to use it.

Every deck we build is designed to stand up to local weather and enhance your home’s outdoor living for years to come.

  • Permitting & Approvals: We take care of permits and approvals required by Brick Township and Ocean County, so your deck is fully up to code.
