Covered Decks & Screened Porches in Knoxville, TN
Knoxville's outdoor season is too good to spend half of it inside because of rain or heat. A covered deck or screened porch is the most effective way to change that.

Deck Building in Seymour, TN
Knoxville summers are long, humid, and hot enough that an uncovered deck becomes genuinely hard to use by mid-morning.
Add the afternoon storms that roll through East Tennessee from May through September, and most homeowners end up spending far less time outside than they planned when they built the thing.
A covered deck or screened porch changes that. It extends how long you can actually use your outdoor space, keeps the rain and the sun and the insects out, and turns a deck you avoid into one you’re out on every evening.
Riverview Decks builds covered decks and screened porches throughout Knoxville and surrounding communities in East Tennessee. Every project includes full design and permitting, a 3D render before a single board goes down, and a lifetime workmanship warranty on all labor.
What We Build
Covered Decks
A covered deck extends your roofline over your existing or new deck, giving you shade, rain protection, and the ability to add lighting, fans, and heating that make the space usable well into the evening and well past summer.
We tie into your home’s existing structure with KDAT or Owens Corning framing and finish the deck surface with low-maintenance composite materials that hold up in Tennessee’s climate without demanding anything from you year after year.
Screened Porches
A screened porch takes a covered deck a step further by enclosing the sides with a screening system that keeps insects out while keeping the breeze in. Knoxville’s bug season is long enough that this addition alone changes how a space gets used.
Screened porches can also be outfitted with glass panels for extended cold-weather use, making them functional for more of the year than almost any other outdoor structure.
Popular Add-Ons
Homeowners building covered decks and screened porches in Knoxville frequently add grills and outdoor ovens, drink railings, custom fire pits, hot tubs, under-deck oasis systems, gates for kids and pets, and concrete patios to tie the outdoor space together.
We design and build all of these as part of the same project rather than leaving them to separate contractors.
What Knoxville Homeowners Say

Leilani Mason
Manny and his fantastic crew showed up when they said they would and completed our deck in a timely manner in the middle of a heat wave!
We love the deck and look forward to spending many relaxing days enjoying it.

From start to finish, I couldn’t be more impressed. Communication to and from both parties was prompt. The crew was respectful of my property. 99% perfect with cleanup (a few stray screws) every day before they left.
Input from Brandon on the design of my deck with the deck covering, turned out so much better than I imagined.
Lacey and Manny both were onsite frequently, making sure that building materials were available, and all of my OCD issues were addressed.
The pictures included only reflect partial staining (it will take me a while
)
And I have to mention that the whole company was so nice!
Covered Deck & Screened Porch Costs in Knoxville
Covered decks and screened porches start from $50,000.
The roof extension is where most of the cost lives, because tying into an existing structure correctly, with proper framing, flashing, and load distribution, takes skilled labor and a lot of it.
Projects involving larger footprints, premium composite materials, or significant structural work run considerably higher.
