How does Denver’s permitting process work?

Denver’s building department is thorough. If your permit application has gaps, missing details, or doesn’t meet the city’s exacting standards, it comes back for corrections. Then it comes back again. For homeowners, that means weeks of delays before a single board gets cut.

We’ve been through Denver’s permitting process hundreds of times. We know what the city requires, how to prepare drawings and documentation that pass the first time, and how to respond quickly when corrections are requested. Our team handles every aspect of permitting from start to finish so your project stays on schedule.

This is one of the most significant advantages of working with a contractor who has deep roots in Denver rather than one who occasionally ventures inside city limits.

Why do some deck builders avoid projects inside Denver city limits?

Deck construction in Capitol Hill, Washington Park, Cherry Creek, and Stapleton comes with logistical challenges that suburban projects simply don’t have.

Street parking for dumpsters requires city permits and careful coordination. Material deliveries need to be timed precisely because there’s no room to stage materials the way you can on a suburban lot. Crew parking is limited and needs to be managed thoughtfully so your neighbors aren’t impacted more than necessary.

We’ve developed systems for managing all of it. Before we break ground on any Denver project, we map out the logistics, communicate with adjacent neighbors where appropriate, and coordinate deliveries to minimize disruption. Your project gets done efficiently and your relationship with your neighbors stays intact.

What Denver Homeowners Are Building

Denver’s older neighborhoods feature homes with character, and the outdoor spaces we build reflect that. Here’s what we’re seeing most from Denver homeowners right now:

What types of decks do Denver homeowners build?

Composite Decks are extremely popular. Low maintenance, built for Colorado’s UV intensity and freeze-thaw cycles, and available in profiles that complement both historic and modern architecture. We’re Trex Pro, Deckorators Pro, and TimberTech Pro certified, meaning we have access to the full product lines and manufacturer-backed installation warranties.

Are covered patios and pergolas worth it in Denver?

Covered Patios and Pergolas are perfect for Denver’s 300 days of sunshine. Especially when the Colorado sun is beating down on an exposed deck in July. Covered structures, including motorized louvered pergolas, extend the usability of your outdoor space across more of the year.

What is a Rain Escape system and how does it work?

Rain Escape Systems are perfect for homeowners with elevated decks. A Rain Escape system turns the space underneath into usable dry storage or covered outdoor living area. It’s one of the most practical upgrades we install and consistently surprises homeowners with how much space it unlocks.

Why Denver Homeowners Choose The Deck Company

35 years in business. Family owned and operated. Trex Pro, Deckorators Pro, and TimberTech Pro certified. BBB A+ rated.

Those credentials matter, but what matters more is the track record behind them. We’ve been building outdoor living spaces across the Denver metro since 1992, through economic cycles, changing materials, and evolving building codes. We know what holds up in Colorado and what doesn’t.

Our process is straightforward. We start with a consultation to understand how you want to use your space. We handle design, engineering drawings, permitting, and construction. We communicate clearly at every stage. And we build to last.

What to expect when you request an estimate:

1: When you reach out, we take the time to understand your project — your goals, your timeline, your budget. Based on that, we’ll schedule an on-site estimate at your home.

2: On estimate day, we measure carefully, review your options together, and do our best to make sure every detail is accounted for before we put a number on paper.

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.

We build trust the same way we build decks: with no shortcuts.

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.
