Custom Decks in Oak Ridge, TN

Yes. Tear-out and rebuild is one of our most common projects. We'll inspect the existing structure during the estimate, quote the demo cost separately from the new build, and haul away all the old material. If portions of the existing frame are salvageable and meet current code, we'll let you know and price both options.

Deck pricing varies significantly with size, height, material, and railing choice. As rough ranges in the Knoxville market: a small ground-level pressure-treated wood deck typically starts in the low-to-mid four figures; a mid-size composite deck (Trex, TimberTech, or Deckorators) typically runs $15,000-$35,000; and larger multi-level or covered composite projects can run $40,000-$80,000 or more. We provide a written, itemized estimate after a remote or on-site consultation so you can see the cost of each material, the railing system, and labor broken out.

Choose pressure-treated wood if upfront cost is the priority and you're comfortable with cleaning and re-staining the deck every 1-3 years. Choose composite (Trex, TimberTech, or Deckorators) if you want to skip the ongoing maintenance, want a longer warranty (25 years to lifetime), and don't mind paying 1.5-2x more upfront. For most homeowners who plan to stay in the house 7+ years, composite ends up being the lower lifetime cost.

A standard pressure-treated wood deck typically takes 1-3 days of on-site construction once we break ground, depending on size and complexity. A composite deck (Trex, TimberTech, Deckorators) typically takes 2-6 weeks end-to-end including material lead time, with on-site construction itself often running 5-10 working days. Multi-level decks, covered decks, and projects with custom railings sit toward the longer end of those ranges. We give you a specific build window in writing before work starts.

Yes. For any deck that requires a permit under local code, we pull the permit, schedule the inspections, and handle the back-and-forth with the city or county building department. The permit fee is itemized in your written estimate so you can see exactly what it costs.

Every project includes a 5-year workmanship warranty on labor and installation, in writing. Materials are covered by the manufacturer's warranty (Trex: 25-year fade & stain; TimberTech: up to 50-year fade & stain on top collections; Deckorators: lifetime structural; pressure-treated lumber: per supplier terms). We also include a free annual inspection for the first two years and lifetime support. The workmanship warranty is transferable, which adds value if you sell the home.
