Custom Hickory Fence & Deck serves Mooresville, NC with pool deck construction, custom deck design and build, Trex and composite deck installation, and vinyl and wood fence installation. We have worked throughout Iredell County since 2017, serving both lakefront and lake-access neighborhoods along Lake Norman and the inland subdivisions off Brawley School Road, and we reply to all project inquiries within one business day.

Mooresville has a large number of homes with in-ground pools, especially in the lake-access communities near the water where outdoor living is a priority. Pool decks in this area need materials that handle constant moisture exposure, UV from sun reflecting off the water, and the foot traffic of a busy outdoor season. See how we build pool decks in Mooresville.
Mooresville homes range from older craftsman bungalows near downtown to large two-story homes in newer lakeside subdivisions. Custom deck design lets us match the structure to the home's floor height, the slope of the lot, and how the homeowner plans to use the space - whether that means a single-level entertaining deck or a tiered structure that follows a sloped Lake Norman lot.
For Mooresville homeowners near Lake Norman, Trex and composite decking is a practical choice because it holds up in high-moisture environments without the annual staining required by wood. Trex boards resist the fading and checking that Iredell County's hot, humid summers accelerate on bare wood surfaces, and they handle the heavy foot traffic of lake-season entertaining without wearing down.
Mooresville's fast growth has brought a large number of suburban subdivisions with HOA standards that often specify or prefer vinyl fencing. Vinyl holds its appearance through the area's hot summers and wet winters without painting, and its lighter weight puts less stress on post footings in the clay soil common throughout Iredell County.
Pressure-treated decks are still the most common project type in Mooresville for homeowners who want solid construction at a price that works with their budget. Treated wood performs well in Iredell County when footings are sized correctly for the clay soil, corrosion-rated hardware is used throughout, and the deck surface receives a stain application on schedule.
Mooresville's lakeside setting means outdoor living is a priority for many homeowners here, but the mosquitoes and summer heat can push people inside after dark. A screened porch or screened deck creates a protected, three-season outdoor space that lets you enjoy the lake breezes without the bugs - and it adds usable square footage without a full home addition.
Most of the housing in Mooresville was built after 1990 - many neighborhoods developed in the late 1990s and 2000s as the town grew rapidly from the Charlotte metro area. Builder-grade decks and fences installed during that era are now 20 to 30 years old and approaching the end of their useful life. The treated wood decks built during that boom have gone through enough wet-dry and freeze-thaw cycles to show real structural wear, and many are overdue for replacement rather than repair. The clay-heavy soil throughout Iredell County also means footings installed at builder-standard depth can shift over time as the soil expands and contracts with each rainy season.
Properties along Lake Norman face additional demands. Soil moisture near the lake fluctuates more dramatically than on inland lots, and the combination of UV reflection off the water, higher airborne humidity, and direct sun accelerates weathering on any unprotected wood surface. Homes in these neighborhoods need materials and installation methods chosen specifically for that environment - not the same approach used on a standard inland subdivision lot. Getting the site assessment and material selection right from the beginning is what determines how long the finished project holds up.
Our crew works throughout Mooresville regularly and pulls permits from both the Town of Mooresville and Iredell County depending on where the property sits relative to the town boundary. We determine the correct jurisdiction for your address and manage the permit process from application through final inspection - you do not need to contact the permit offices yourself.
We know the range of homes in Mooresville. The older neighborhoods near downtown have craftsman bungalows and traditional two-story homes that date from the early 1900s and need careful assessment before adding any structure. The lakeside communities along Lake Norman have larger homes on sloped lots where drainage and footing depth require more site planning than a flat subdivision lot. The newer subdivisions off Brawley School Road are mostly brick-front vinyl-sided homes where the work is more straightforward. We work on all three types regularly across the Mooresville area.
We also serve homeowners in neighboring Statesville to the north - the Iredell County seat and a market we work in alongside Mooresville every week. For homeowners east toward Lenoir and the foothills, we cover those areas as well.
Contact us by phone or through the estimate form and describe what you have in mind. We reply to every Mooresville inquiry within one business day and set up a site visit from there.
We visit the property, assess the lot conditions - including slope, soil, and any drainage factors near the lake or in low spots - and provide a written, itemized estimate. No commitment is required to get the estimate, and there are no surprise fees added later.
Once you approve the estimate, we apply for the required permit through the Town of Mooresville or Iredell County and order materials. Permit review typically takes one to two weeks, and we keep you updated on timing so you can plan accordingly.
Our crew completes the build, handles the final inspection, and leaves the site clean. You do not need to be present for every day of work, but we coordinate with you on any access or scheduling questions that come up during the build.
We serve all of Mooresville and the Lake Norman area. Free estimates, no obligation, reply within one business day.
(828) 282-0725Mooresville has grown from a small mill town into one of the fastest-growing communities in North Carolina over the past three decades. The town sits about 25 miles north of Charlotte in Iredell County, and much of that growth has come from families and workers moving out of the Charlotte metro in search of more space and lower housing costs. The resulting housing stock is a mix of older craftsman and traditional homes near downtown and large subdivisions of brick-front and vinyl-sided two-story homes built during the 1990s and 2000s. Learn more at the Town of Mooresville.
The town is also known throughout North Carolina and beyond as "Race City USA" - home to more NASCAR teams and racing-related businesses than anywhere else in the country. That identity draws a steady community of skilled tradespeople and workers who take their homes seriously. The western edge of Mooresville runs along Lake Norman, the largest man-made lake in North Carolina, and the lakefront and lake-access neighborhoods in that part of town are among the most desirable addresses in the Carolinas. We also serve homeowners in neighboring Conover and Newton to the northwest, both part of the Catawba County corridor we cover regularly.
