Built for Centennial
We've built from the mature yards of Willow Creek and Piney Creek to the ranch homes in Southglenn and the walkouts in The Knolls, and the ground under Centennial doesn't forgive shortcuts. This is an established suburb, so most homes went up in the 1970s through the 1990s, on expansive clay that swells when it gets wet, under strong sun and the hail the Front Range is known for.
Decks fail here in the same few ways: the clay pushes the posts up and pulls the deck off the house, the sun grays and cracks a cheap old wood deck, and the HOA turns down a design that wasn't drawn to their rules. We build so yours doesn't do any of those.
“After researching several local companies, they were the clear winner. The quality far exceeded the cost, craftsmanship in every square inch.”
Dale Maxey · Custom deckBuilt for Centennial conditions
Most deck failures here trace back to the clay, the sun, the hail, or a skipped permit. We build for all of it.
The clay under Centennial swells up when it gets wet. That's what pushes a deck up and pulls it off the house. We dig the posts down deep, past the clay to solid ground, so a wet spring can't lift it, and so it stays tied tight to the house for good.
The Front Range sits in what folks call Hail Alley, and the sun out here is hard on cheap boards. We use tougher capped composite, and for homeowners tired of patching after a storm, we build covered decks and patio covers that take the hit instead of your deck.
Many Centennial neighborhoods, like Willow Creek and Piney Creek, have design standards for materials, colors, and railings, and the HOA approves the plans before the city will permit. We fill out the design-review packet and match your build to what the HOA allows.
Centennial runs its own building office and permits the whole city, not Arapahoe County. A standard deck review takes about 10 to 15 business days. We draw the plans, pull the permit, and handle the inspections, and if your lot is near the Piney Creek floodplain, we handle that too.
“The inspector was impressed by their system and mentioned this deck is built to withstand a hurricane.”
Dominic ValenzuelaWhat we see in Centennial yards
After a few hundred Front Range builds, the requests from Centennial are predictable in the best way. Odds are yours is on this list, and we've already solved it.
Most of Centennial went up decades ago, so the first wood decks are now splitting, graying, and pulling loose. We tear out the old one, seal the new one to the house the right way, and rebuild it bigger in low-maintenance composite you never have to re-stain.
In Willow Creek, Piney Creek and Southglenn, the HOA approves your plans, materials, and colors before the city will permit. We draw it to their standards and fill out the packet, so you get a yes the first time instead of a redo.
A lot of Centennial homes in The Knolls and Homestead sit above a walkout basement. We build decks that step down, level by level, to the yard, so you get to the grass without a long, steep flight of stairs.
If you've had to replace a deck board or a roof after a storm, you're not alone in Centennial. We build covered decks, pergolas and patio covers, and use tougher boards, so the next big hail doesn't start it all over.
Centennial homeowners are done spending every summer sanding and staining. We build in capped composite and hidden fasteners, so the deck looks new for years with nothing but a rinse.
On the established streets here, the deck has to look like it belongs, not bolted on. We match the railing, the boards, and the lines to your home and yard, so the whole back of the house reads as one design.
Verified Google 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.
“We had them tear out our very old deck and build a new much bigger deck. They are VERY focused on quality builds! They showed up every day exactly when they said they would. Our new deck is AWESOME! We love the Timber Tech product as well.”
“We had Jon, Andrew, and Derrick rebuild our deck. The crew was always on time, hardworking, polite and professional. He built a cozy deck for us and completely delivered on all his promises. The deck matches our yard very well and we enjoy it everyday!”
“We chose to do a picture-frame design with black railing. Jon was very easy to work with and always on time. Very happy! Would do business again with him and highly recommend them!”
