About Us

Learn more about PalBros Decking

At PALbros Decking, we’re more than just a business; we’re a family passionate about turning your outdoor dreams into reality.

Our story begins with RJ Lawrence, a Navy veteran who has spent over a decade honing his skills in the home improvement industry. His dedication to crafting beautiful, functional outdoor spaces inspired the creation of PALbros Decking. Beside him is his wife, Nichole, whose successful career in communications perfectly complements RJ’s vision. Together, they’ve built a family-run business grounded in hard work, integrity, and creativity.

The name “PALbros” is close to our hearts. It’s a nod to the initials of our two sons—P.A.L.—who have been lovingly called the PALBros by friends and family for years. After living in the Portland/Vancouver area for a decade, we moved back to the east side of King County three years ago to be closer to family. Being near our roots has only deepened our commitment to community and connection.

Family is everything to us, and we’re fortunate to have a supportive circle that inspires us every day. While they aren’t part of the business, RJ’s oldest son Dereck, his partner Aletha, her sons and their daughter Christine bring so much joy to our lives and remind us why creating meaningful spaces matters.

When we’re not designing decks, you’ll find us immersed in soccer—a true family passion. Our youngest son plays year-round for a local club team, and we love spending Sundays cheering on our favorite teams: West Ham United (Come On You Irons!) and the Seattle Sounders.

At PALbros Decking, we understand that outdoor spaces are more than just additions to your home—they’re places where families connect, relax, and thrive. We’re excited to bring our family’s dedication and care to your next project, creating spaces where your own memories can unfold

How to Get Started

Reach out to us to schedule a consultation and site visit for a personalized quote. We offer free instant quotes, regardless on if you are looking for deck repair, seattle deck replacement, or a custom deck build.

It depends on the size and design. Most decks can be finished in a few days, but decks with intricate designs over 1000 sq ft may take longer. We’ll provide a detailed timeline during your consultation.

The choice between composite and wood decks depends on your priorities. If you value low maintenance and longevity, composite decks are a great choice. They require minimal upkeep and can last 25-30 years or more. However, they have a higher initial cost and may have a less natural appearance. If you prefer a more natural look and don’t mind regular maintenance, wood decks are a good option. They offer a wide variety of wood types and stains, and can be sanded and refinished to extend their lifespan. However, they require more upkeep and are susceptible to rot, warping, and insect damage. Ultimately, consider your budget, desired appearance, and maintenance preferences when deciding between composite and wood decks.

Yes we can, but this is something you can do on your own that will speed up the process. You can get this done before you decide who your hiring to build the deck. We recommend doing some research on applying for permits and getting that done asap, but if you’re unsure and want guidance, we can help.

This largely depends on the size and design. Some railings can add an extra $20k+ to your project if you want to get fancy on a big deck. Best thing to do is give us a call so we can give you a rough quote. If it’s in your ballpark then we can come out for an on-site estimate to give you a more exact number.
