Decks & Covered Porches

Framed for real snow load, footed below frost line, built to stay put.

Southwest Colorado is hard on decks. Snow load that breaks undersized framing, forty-degree daily swings that back fasteners out, and UV at altitude that eats any finish you neglect.

We have torn out five-year-old composite decks sitting on failing frames. The surface material is the part you see; the footings, the span, and the ledger flashing are the part that decides whether it is still there in fifteen years.

What's included

  • New decks in composite, cedar, or treated lumber
  • Covered porches, pergolas, and shade structures
  • Steel-framed and steel-post structures where span demands it
  • Cable, wire-panel, and traditional railing systems
  • Footings below frost line, engineered where required
  • Deck repair, resurfacing, staining, and sealing

FAQ

Decks & Covered Porches: common questions

Not seeing yours? Ask us directly. We answer.

Who actually shows up to do the work?

Aaron, and his crew. He is not a salesman who hands your project to whoever is available. He frames, welds, runs the excavator, and sets tile himself. That is the whole reason one crew can carry a project start to finish.

How do estimates work?

Free, and in writing. Smaller jobs we can often price from photos and a phone call. Anything larger gets an on-site look. You can pick the time yourself on the calendar on this site.

What areas do you cover?

Vallecito and Bayfield are home base, and we work throughout La Plata County including Durango, Ignacio, Gem Village, and Forest Lakes. If you are a little outside that, ask anyway.
