Deck Additions With Clear Functional Purpose

Elevate your outdoor living

Each addition we offer addresses specific needs. Understanding what each component does helps you select the features that matter most for your project.

Deck Railing

Vertical barrier systems installed along open deck edges that prevent falls, meet building code requirements, and define the usable perimeter of elevated surfaces.

Deck Skirting

Panel systems attached beneath deck frames that conceal structural components, block debris accumulation, and prevent animal access to the space below.

Deck Footing

Below-grade concrete foundations that support vertical posts, distribute deck weight to surrounding soil, and resist movement from frost heave and settling.

Deck Lighting

Electrical fixtures positioned on or within deck components that provide visibility for navigation, task lighting for activities, and ambient illumination for evening use.

Underdeck Systems

Drainage assemblies mounted beneath deck surfaces that channel water away from the area below, creating dry space suitable for secondary use.

Pergolas

Post-and-beam frameworks erected above deck surfaces that provide partial overhead coverage, support shade materials, and add vertical architectural elements.

Cabanas

Enclosed or semi-enclosed accessory structures positioned on deck surfaces that offer weather protection, privacy, and dedicated space for specific activities.

Privacy Screens

Vertical partitions installed at deck perimeters that obstruct views from neighboring properties, roads, or other vantage points while permitting airflow.

Decking Materials Rated By Performance Factors

Choosing materials means weighing different performance characteristics. Here’s how our options compare across the factors that matter most.

Pressure-Treated Wood scores well on affordability and structural strength, requiring moderate maintenance investment to achieve good longevity in Colorado's climate.
Softwood Decking like cedar and redwood rates highly for natural appearance and workability, with above-average decay resistance and pleasant tactile qualities underfoot.
Hardwood Decking including Ipe, Tigerwood, and Cumaru tops durability and hardness rankings, delivering superior scratch resistance and the longest expected service life.
Composite Decking leads in maintenance convenience and color consistency, eliminating refinishing requirements while providing reliable fade and stain resistance.
PVC Decking achieves the highest moisture resistance scores, showing complete imperviousness to water absorption, rot, and mold development.
