Local Builders, Local Knowledge
We Know Columbia’s Terrain, Codes, and Communities
We’ve built decks across Columbia’s neighborhoods—from steep lake lots in Old Hawthorne to HOA-governed subdivisions like Cascades and Steeplechase. We understand what it takes to meet code, pass inspections, and create structures that feel like they belong with your home and surroundings.
Framing That Won’t Shift or Sag
Strong From the Ground Up
A good deck starts with the right foundation. We build using ACQ-treated lumber or steel framing depending on your soil and slope. Our footings are deep, secure, and spaced to resist shifting. Every beam, post, and joist is set for strength, drainage, and long-term durability.
Materials That Match Missouri’s Weather
Composite, Cedar, or Treated Wood Options
We build with materials we know will last in Columbia’s four-season climate. Composite options like Trex and TimberTech offer long-term durability with less upkeep. Prefer natural wood? We source kiln-dried cedar and pressure-treated lumber, sealed to resist rot, mold, and UV damage.
Service Areas in Columbia
Old Hawthorne: This upscale golf community has larger homes and spacious lots—perfect for multi-level decks, grilling areas, and screened-in porches with scenic views.
The Cascades: Known for modern homes and HOA standards, Cascades homeowners often choose composite decks with matching railings and low-maintenance materials.

Deck Questions from Columbia Homeowners
What to Know Before Starting Your Project
We’ve worked with hundreds of Columbia residents—from new builds to old deck replacements. Below are the most common questions we get about materials, permitting, and project timelines. Whether you're in city limits or on the outskirts, we’ll guide you every step of the way.
Do Columbia homeowners need a deck permit?
Yes. The city of Columbia requires permits for most new deck construction. We handle the permitting process for every build.
What’s the most weather-resistant deck material?
Composite brands like Trex or TimberTech perform well in Columbia’s humidity and heat. Cedar works great too when properly sealed.
How long does a deck build take?
Most decks take 1–2 weeks after permits. Weather, inspections, and design complexity can adjust timelines slightly.
Can you build on hills or uneven yards?
Absolutely. We specialize in elevated, multi-tiered decks built for Columbia’s varied terrain and drainage needs.
