Aurora's official elevation is 5,435 feet, and the city's highest ground, in the southeast, tops 6,200. It's built on clay that swells up when it gets wet, under strong sun and the hail this part of Colorado is known for. And many neighborhoods have an HOA with its own design review. Whatever we build for you, we build it for all of that.
The clay under SE Aurora swells up when it gets wet, enough to push a deck or fence post up out of the ground. We dig the posts at least 36 inches deep, the city's frost depth, so a wet spring or a hard freeze can't lift them.
We size every frame for the city's 40-pound snow load, and for the way it freezes cold at night and thaws by day. That back-and-forth slowly loosens anything built for warmer places.
The Front Range sits in what folks call Hail Alley, and the sun up here is hard on cheap boards. We use tougher boards and siding and build covered patios for folks who are tired of fixing the damage.
The City of Aurora runs its own building office (303-739-7420) and permits the whole city, not the county. If you have an HOA, its design review is a separate step, and an HOA OK is not a city permit. We handle both.
“The inspector was impressed by their system and mentioned this deck is built to withstand a hurricane.”
Dominic ValenzuelaWhat we see in Aurora yards
After a few hundred Front Range builds, the requests from SE Aurora are predictable in the best way. Odds are yours is on this list, and we've already solved it.
A lot that backs a golf course or the Aurora Reservoir comes with a view worth keeping. An open metal fence keeps it in sight. Lots like these can have their own fence rules, so we check with your HOA and the city before we build.
On a walkout lot, the main floor sits a full story above the backyard. We build decks that step down, level by level, to the yard, not one tall deck with a long flight of stairs.
If you've patched a deck or a roof after a storm, you're not alone out here. We build covered patios and pergolas so you get shade in the summer and a roof over your head when the hail comes.
On a higher lot, the view is the whole reason you bought the house. We use thin cable or metal railing so the railing almost disappears, and the view doesn't.
In Southshore, for example, a volunteer Design Review Committee reviews any outside change and answers within 30 days, and it sets the stain rules for fences. HOA approval is not a city permit, so we handle both for you.
A lot of folks here want a deck, a fence, and maybe an outdoor kitchen all together. One crew, one schedule, one bill, and it all matches when we're done.
Verified customer reviews
Real, verified reviews from real Colorado yards. The same names come up again and again: Jon, Janessa, and a crew that takes pride in the details.
“They tore out our very old deck and built a new, much bigger one. They started exactly when they said and showed up every day on time. Our new deck is AWESOME, love the TimberTech too.”
“Jonathan and his wife made our fence replacement seamless. Great communication throughout the project and excellent workers. Replaced our fence in 2 days, cleaned up the site properly and discarded the old fence panels. Highly recommend.”
“We had Jon, Andrew, and Derrick rebuild our deck. The crew was always on time and professional. Jon designed a creative privacy wall for us and delivered on all his promises. We enjoy it every day!”
