Decks & Patios in Rockford and Nearby Communities

Make the most of your yard with a sturdy deck or patio that looks great and stands up to Midwest weather. We plan the space, set frost-depth footings or helical piers, frame true, and finish with long-lasting materials—composite or wood decking, paver or concrete patios, code-ready rails, and low-voltage lighting. You’ll get a written scope, photo updates, and a walkthrough before we call it done.

Crew arrived on time, worked neatly, and the new roof looks fantastic on our home.

Patios, Walks & Steps

  • Paver patios with compacted bases, edging, and polymeric sand for clean joints.

  • Concrete patios with control joints, broom or stamped finishes, and sealer.

  • Steps and landings that meet rise/run guidelines, plus handrails where required.

  • Drainage planning so water moves away from the house.

They located the leak quickly, explained options clearly, and the repair has held perfectly.

Repairs, Rails & Lighting

  • Safety repairs: shaky rails, loose treads, soft boards, and failing posts.

  • Rails in composite, wood, or metal with child-safe picket spacing and secure mounts.

  • Lighting: stair and post fixtures on low-voltage transformers for evening use.

  • Spring/fall maintenance checks with a written punch list.

  • Kick-out flashing at roof-to-wall to stop water behind siding.

  • Ice-prone areas evaluated for ventilation/insulation; heat cable option where needed.

  • Photo documentation and line-item scopes for insurance conversations after wind or hail.

The report was clear, scheduling was easy, and the price matched the estimate exactly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you help with design and layout?

Yes. Share how you plan to use the space—dining, grilling, hot tub, or quiet seating—and we’ll size the structure, choose materials, and plan lighting that fits.

Composite or wood—which is better?

Composite/PVC needs less upkeep and keeps color longer. Cedar/treated wood lowers initial cost and can be stained to suit. We’ll price both so you can compare.

How long does a typical project take?

Small decks and patios often wrap in 2–4 days after permits. Larger builds with rails, lighting, or pergolas can run 1–2 weeks depending on scope and weather.

Can you fix a shaky deck instead of replacing it?

Often, yes. We assess posts, footings, ledgers, and fasteners. If the frame is sound, resurfacing with new boards and rails can be a smart option.

What about drainage and grading around a new patio?

We pitch surfaces away from the house, set bases correctly, and add extensions or drains so water doesn’t linger near the foundation.

Do you handle permits and inspections?

Yes. We assist with permits, meet inspectors, and build to local code so your project passes the first time.
