Flow, Function, and Finishes That Make Sense

Decks Built for the Way You Actually Use Them

What to Know Before Building Your Deck

Questions We Get from St. Louis Homeowners

St. Louis homes come in all shapes and lot sizes, which means every deck project comes with questions—about materials, permits, and what's possible on your property. Here are answers to the ones we hear most often.

Do you get permits for city and county projects?

Yes. We handle permits, drawings, and inspections for both St. Louis City and County, ensuring full compliance and approvals.

Which material is best for St. Louis weather?

Composite offers long-term durability with low maintenance. Cedar is great too, but requires sealing every few years.

Can you replace my old deck without rebuilding the frame?

If the frame passes inspection, yes. We offer re-decking and structural reinforcement when full rebuilds aren’t needed.

Can you build a rooftop or multi-level deck?

Absolutely. We build elevated and rooftop decks with engineered support and city-approved designs.
