A deck is more than just an outdoor space—it’s an extension of your home, a place for relaxation, entertaining, and making memories. But what if your deck could do more than just enhance your backyard? What if it could support Canadian businesses, reduce environmental impact, and be built to last for generations?

At MKW, we’re working hard to build decks that are as Canadian as possible. Right now, we can construct a deck that’s about 95% Canadian-made, using materials sourced from manufacturers across the country. And the best part? These products aren’t just local—they come with lifetime product warranties, and we back them up with our own lifetime craftsmanship warranty. Sounds like a win-win!
