Custom Deck Designs Built Around Your Lifestyle

Every homeowner has a different vision for their outdoor space. As a custom deck builder in Milwaukee, we listen first, give advice, and then design a deck around your needs. It might be a quiet spot for morning coffee or a large space for family gatherings. Custom features can include a specific color scheme, custom railings, built-in seating, and lighting.


We also factor in local architectural styles, weather, and your personal taste, so the finished deck looks good and lasts. Choosing the right railing is part of that, and this guide on how to choose the right deck railing system walks through the options.

Decking Materials We Install

We work with top-tier materials, including TimberTech, AZEK, Trex, and PVC, plus traditional wood. That gives you a wide range of textures and finishes, from classic wood grain to contemporary composites.

Composite Deck Installation

Composite deck installation is the most popular choice for busy homeowners. Composite and PVC decking resist rot, warping, and pests, and they don't need regular staining or sealing like wood does. Many composite options are also made from recycled materials. To compare brands, see top composite decking brands and what makes them different.

Wood Decks

Wood is still a good fit for homeowners who want a natural look and are comfortable with periodic staining and sealing.
