Planning Your Deck Construction in Kansas City
A well-designed deck transforms your backyard into an outdoor living room where Kansas City families gather, entertain, and relax. Whether you envision a simple platform deck for quiet morning coffee or an elaborate multi-level design with pergola for hosting barbecues, professional deck construction creates the perfect setting for outdoor enjoyment.
"A great deck is like adding a room to your house, except it's under the open sky. Kansas City families love how decks bring them closer to nature while extending their living space. Whether it's morning coffee watching the sunrise or evening gatherings under the stars, decks create memories that last a lifetime."
As the best deck construction contractor in Kansas City with hundreds of 5-star reviews, our 4th generation family business with over 30 employees has been building beautiful outdoor spaces for decades. We understand Kansas City's climate challenges and build decks that withstand our weather extremes while maintaining their beauty year after year.
Proper planning ensures your deck perfectly fits your lifestyle and property. We consider how you'll use the space, your yard's dimensions and slope, traffic flow from your home, and views you want to enhance. From material selection to design features, every decision impacts your deck's functionality and enjoyment.
Choosing the Right Decking Materials
Material choice significantly impacts your deck's appearance, maintenance needs, and longevity. Traditional wood decking offers natural beauty and lower upfront costs. Cedar and redwood naturally resist rot and insects, while pressure-treated pine provides an economical option that takes stain well.
Composite decking has revolutionized outdoor living. Made from wood fibers and recycled plastics, composite boards resist fading, staining, scratching, and mold. While costing more initially, they eliminate annual maintenance and look great for decades. Many homeowners find the long-term savings worth the investment.
We'll help you weigh factors like budget, maintenance preferences, and aesthetic goals. Many clients choose composite for deck surfaces and natural wood for railings and pergolas, balancing cost and maintenance while achieving their desired look.

Professional deck construction with quality materials and expert craftsmanship
Design Features & Safety Considerations
Modern decks offer numerous features to enhance comfort and functionality. Built-in seating maximizes space while providing storage. Integrated planters add greenery without cluttering the deck surface. Lighting extends usability into evening hours while creating ambiance and ensuring safety.
Kansas City building codes require specific safety features. Decks over 30 inches high need railings at least 36 inches tall with balusters spaced to prevent children from falling through. Stairs must have proper rise and run dimensions with handrails. We ensure every deck exceeds safety requirements.
Proper construction techniques ensure longevity. This includes adequate footings below the frost line, proper joist spacing, and hardware rated for outdoor use. We use techniques that allow for wood movement and ensure water drainage to prevent rot and structural issues.
