Deck Building & Installation in Lakewood, CO

New decks built from the footings up — wood or composite, framed for Colorado snow load and freeze-thaw.

  • Licensed & insured general contractor
  • No drive-time charge, materials at cost
  • Phone answered 24/7, emergencies included
  • Free written estimates, usually within a day

What's included

Every deck building & installation job covers

The same checklist whether it's a quick fix or the full replacement.

  • Footings sized and set below frost line, because heave is what moves a deck
  • Ledger attached and flashed properly — the connection decks actually fail at
  • Framing sized for real snow load, not the minimum that passes a glance
  • Wood or composite talked through in plain terms: cost, upkeep, and how each ages here
  • Railings and stairs built to code, because that's the part people put weight on
  • Site left clean, offcuts hauled away, and nails swept with a magnet

Who shows up

Hi, I'm Zack.

Fifteen years on the tools, based in Lakewood, and a licensed contractor — which matters more on a build than on a repair, because a deck is structure, not decoration.

The ledger connection to your house is where decks fail, and it's the part nobody sees once the boards are on. I flash it properly and I'll show you it before it's covered.

What’s covered

Deck Building & Installation services in Lakewood, CO

Everything under this heading, handled on the same visit where the job allows.

New Deck Construction

Ground-up cedar and treated builds from footings to guardrail, including the stairs, laid out against your yard and what the setbacks allow.

Composite & Low-Maintenance Decking

Composite and PVC surfaces over a correctly built frame, with the gapping set for Colorado's temperature swing so boards don't bind.

Deck Replacement & Rebuilds

Tired decks torn out and rebuilt including the framing, rather than a new surface laid over structure that's already going.

Ground-Level & Patio Decks

Low and ground-level decks built over prepared ground, with the framing kept clear of soil contact and the surface set to shed water.

Deck Design & Layout

Size, height, stairs, and railing worked out before anything is ordered, so the numbers you get are for a deck that can actually be built there.

  3. Step 03

    The person who quoted your job is the person who does it. Batch a few items into one visit and the whole list costs less than two separate trade calls.
