★★★★★ 5/5

Nate and his team were professional and efficient. We were in constant communication.

I have 3 dogs that the workers were mindful of by keeping the gate closed and not leaving any nails or screws as a hazard.

JC and/or Nate were here everyday to ensure quality and perfection.

There is no one else I would recommend for your deck both new or repairs. I only wish I could give more than 5 stars!

How Much Does Deck Building Cost in Dandridge, TN?

The cost of a deck depends on the design, the materials you choose, and how the space comes together. Things like layout, yard conditions, and added features can all play a part. We’ll walk the space with you, talk through options, and give you a clear breakdown before anything gets scheduled.

What Can Change the Cost:

Size & Layout – More square footage means more framing, decking, and footings.
Materials – Composite, pressure-treated wood, metal rails, or custom upgrades each come with a different price tag.
Access & Terrain – Steep ground, tight side yards, or rocky soil can affect how we dig footings or deliver materials.
Design Features – Picture-frame edges, multi-level platforms, built-in stairs, or lighting all add complexity.
Permit & Code Requirements – We build to Jefferson County code and manage approvals and inspections, which may influence structure and timing.

FAQs About Deck Building in Dandridge, TN

How long does it take to build a deck?

Most projects in this area take 1–2 weeks once we start. That includes framing, decking, stairs, railing, and inspection. Weather and site conditions can shift that slightly, but we’ll give you a clear schedule before day one.

Do I need a permit for deck construction?

Yes. Jefferson County requires permits for deck construction, especially if it’s attached to your home or over a certain height. We handle the paperwork, meet the inspector, and ensure everything is built to code from the ledger board to the final rail post.

What materials should I choose—wood or composite?

Pressure-treated wood is budget-friendly and looks great when stained, but it requires regular sealing. Composite costs more upfront but lasts longer with less upkeep. We’ll go over the pros and cons of each based on your yard, budget, and how you want to use the space.

Can I customize the design?

Absolutely. We can help you create a layout that fits your home, your view, and how you actually use the space. Built-in benches, angled corners, upgraded railing—if it makes the space work better, we’ll design it in.
