Composite decking is a popular choice for homeowners in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin due to its numerous benefits. It requires minimal maintenance, with no need for staining, sealing, or sanding. It's highly durable, resisting moisture, rot, mold, and insects - ideal for midwest weather conditions. Composite materials maintain their color and appearance for decades, even under intense sun exposure. Many options are eco-friendly, made from recycled materials. They're splinter-free and cooler underfoot than some woods. Most high-quality composite decking comes with extensive warranties. While the initial cost may be higher than wood, composite decking often proves more cost-effective over time due to reduced maintenance and replacement needs.

Our expertise covers a wide range of custom outdoor living spaces. We construct various types of decks including ground-level, elevated, multi-level, and wrap-around designs. We also build porches, both screened and covered, for front and back of homes. Our services extend to patios, covered patios, pergolas, gazebos, roofed structures, pavilions, arbors, and trellises. Additionally, we install outdoor lighting for decks, patios, and landscapes. Each project is tailored to complement your home's architecture and style, aligning with your unique vision.

The duration of deck or patio projects can vary based on several factors, including the size and complexity of the design, as well as weather conditions. Typically, most installations take between one to four weeks from start to completion. During your complimentary consultation, we'll provide you with a detailed timeline, ensuring you have a clear understanding of the project's expected progression.

We provide comprehensive warranty coverage for our work. Our craftsmanship is backed by strong labor warranties, and we collaborate with leading manufacturers to offer material warranties. This is particularly beneficial for composite decking, which often comes with 25-year or lifetime limited warranties against fading, staining, and structural issues. Prior to commencing your project, we'll thoroughly review all warranty details with you to ensure your complete understanding and peace of mind.

Traditional wood decking offers a classic, natural aesthetic but requires regular upkeep, including staining, sealing, and cleaning to prevent deterioration, warping, and insect infestation. In contrast, composite decking provides a low-maintenance alternative with consistent coloration, resistance to moisture and pests, and no splintering. It also offers superior longevity in humid or variable climates like those found in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin. Many homeowners prefer composite for its enduring beauty without the need for constant maintenance, making it an ideal choice for busy families.

We schedule projects throughout the year, weather permitting, and employ proven techniques to safeguard materials during colder months. While the optimal period for construction is typically from spring through fall, we're happy to discuss options that align with your specific timeline. Our team is experienced in adapting to the varied weather conditions of the stateline area.
