Decks are a great way to expand your home’s living space to the outdoors! We work with you to understand your needs for outdoor living and help you with a custom designed deck to fulfill your goals. From platform and basic raised decks to two-story and multi-level decks, we build beautiful decks that are built to last, utilizing high-quality materials and design. And for additional consideration, we have the experience and capabilities to add coverings, including roofs and pergolas, as well as screened porches to your deck or patio space that meet local code requirements.

ACQ Pressure Treated Lumber
Cedar Lumber
Cedar is a more durable wood naturally resistant to rot, decay, and termites and pests, tends to last longer due to its resistance to moisture absorption, and doesn’t warp or split as easily, thus requiring less maintenance. Cedar provides a much more aesthetically pleasing look versus ACQ lumber and, while a sealant is recommended to assist with increasing the wood’s longevity, a cedar deck can easily be left as its natural color post-install for a beautiful appearance.
Composite Material
Composite material decks provide the look of real wood without the maintenance and upkeep of a wooden deck and are designed to last for many years. We utilize products from either TimberTech or Trex depending on the customer’s needs, with both types providing a beautiful and high-quality finish when complete. Composite decking is available in a variety of colors, with wood, composite, or aluminum railing options available to complement your deck’s style.

Composite decking handles Kansas City's hot humid summers and freeze-thaw winters better than most wood options with minimal upkeep. Cedar is a strong natural wood alternative. Pressure-treated pine works well on a budget when annual maintenance is kept up.
