Licensed & Insured • Serving Minnesota Homeowners for Over 30 Years
In most Minnesota cities and townships, a permit is required for deck construction. Permit requirements typically apply to structural framing, footings, guardrails, and stairs. Our team handles the permitting process and ensures your deck meets all local building codes and inspection requirements so you don’t have to worry about compliance.
Do you build covered porches or screened-in porches?
Yes. We design and build custom covered porches, screened-in porches, and outdoor living spaces tailored to your home. These additions provide protection from Minnesota’s weather while expanding usable outdoor space for relaxing and entertaining.
What is the best decking material for Minnesota winters?
In Minnesota’s freeze-thaw climate, materials must withstand moisture, snow loads, and temperature swings. Composite and PVC decking are popular low-maintenance options that resist rot, warping, and cracking. Cedar and pressure-treated lumber are also durable when properly installed and maintained. We help you select a material that balances durability, maintenance level, and appearance.
Do you offer deck repairs or rebuilds?
Yes. We provide deck repairs, structural reinforcement, stair replacement, railing upgrades, and full rebuilds. If your deck shows signs of rot, loose railings, or structural movement, we can assess its condition and recommend the safest and most cost-effective solution.
Deck & Porch FAQs
How much does a custom deck cost in Minnesota?
The cost of a custom deck in Minnesota varies depending on size, materials, layout complexity, railing systems, stairs, and add-on features like lighting or built-in seating. Composite decking, premium hardwoods, and multi-level designs will differ from standard wood builds. We provide detailed, personalized estimates after evaluating your space and goals to ensure you receive an accurate quote based on your specific project.
What decking materials do you offer?
We offer a range of high-quality decking materials designed to perform in Minnesota’s climate, including:
-
Composite decking (low-maintenance and durable)
-
PVC decking systems
-
Cedar decking
-
Pressure-treated lumber
-
Premium hardwood options
Each material has unique benefits in terms of maintenance, longevity, appearance, and budget. We help homeowners choose the best option based on lifestyle, exposure, and long-term performance expectations.
Do I need a permit to build a deck in Minnesota?
How long does it take to build a deck?
Project timelines depend on the size and complexity of the deck, material selection, and weather conditions. A standard deck may take several days, while larger or multi-level decks with custom features may take longer. We provide a projected timeline during your consultation and keep you informed throughout the construction process.
Can you replace just deck boards or railings?
Yes. If your deck’s structure is still sound, we can replace deck boards, railings, stairs, or other components without rebuilding the entire deck. This is a great option for homeowners looking to upgrade to composite decking or improve safety and appearance without full replacement.
