What our customers have to say

 

Whatever You’re Envisioning, We Can Build It.

  • Composite Decks: Low maintenance, long lasting, and available in dozens of colors and styles. Composite is our most popular choice for Denver homeowners who want beauty without the upkeep.
  • Patios: A beautiful, durable alternative to wood or composite. Stamped concrete patios are custom designed to complement your home and landscape.
  • Patio Covers & Pergolas: Shade, style, and a little privacy. A well-designed pergola or patio cover transforms how you use your outdoor space — and how it looks from the street.
  • Outdoor Kitchens: Take the party outside. We design and build custom outdoor kitchens that make entertaining easy and your backyard the place everyone wants to be.
  • Rain Escape: Make the most of the space under your deck. Rain Escape keeps it dry year-round, so you get more usable square footage out of your investment.

3: That number matters to us. Your written estimate reflects exactly what your project will cost. No lowball figures designed to hook you, no surprise charges after work begins.

Long-Term Durability Through Superior Materials

Not all decks are built the same — and the difference usually comes down to materials. The right choices upfront mean your outdoor space stays beautiful, safe, and solid for years without constant maintenance or early repairs. Fade-resistant composites, moisture-treated wood, and properly graded lumber all play a role in how your deck holds up through Colorado’s sun, snow, and everything in between.

But great materials go deeper than the boards you walk on. The real story of a deck that lasts decades is in what you don’t see; the framing that carries the load, the fasteners that stay tight through freeze-thaw cycles, and the footings anchored below the frost line so your deck doesn’t shift or settle over time.

We think through all of it on every project we take on. Every connection point, every structural decision. So when we hand over your space, you’re not just getting something that looks great on day one. You’re getting something built to still look great ten years from now.

Frequently Asked Questions About Building a Deck in Denver

Q: Do I need a permit to build a deck in Denver?
A: In most cases, yes. The City and County of Denver requires a building permit for any deck that is 30 inches or more above grade, attached to the home, or over a certain square footage. We handle the entire permitting process for you, from submitting the application to coordinating inspections. You don’t have to figure out the city’s requirements on your own.

Q: How long does the permitting process take in Denver?
A: It varies, but most residential deck permits in Denver take anywhere from two to six weeks depending on project complexity and current city workload. We do our best to factor permit timelines into your project schedule and work to keep you updated on the status as it moves through the process.

Q: How long will it take to build my deck?
A: Most of our projects take between one and three weeks to complete once permits are approved and materials are on site. Larger or more complex builds, such as multi-level decks, covered structures, or outdoor kitchens, may take longer. We give you a realistic timeline before work begins and keep you updated throughout.

Q: Is The Deck Company a franchise or a family-owned business?
A: We are 100% family-owned and operated. Robert and April Schmidt founded The Deck Company in 1989 and have run it ever since. When you call us, you’re talking to the people who will actually show up and build your deck, not a call center or a middleman.

Q: What areas of Denver do you serve?
A: We serve the greater Denver metro area including Littleton, Highlands Ranch, Centennial, Aurora, Boulder, Broomfield, Golden, and Longmont. If you’re not sure whether we cover your neighborhood, just give us a call at 303-979-7203.
