Screened-In Deck Builders in Knoxville, TN

Knoxville’s bug season runs long, the afternoon storms from May through September are relentless, and by midsummer an open deck can be genuinely uncomfortable by mid-morning. A screened-in deck solves all of that at once. The screening keeps insects out while keeping airflow in, and with a proper roof over it, rain stops being a reason to go inside.

Riverview Decks builds screened-in decks throughout Knoxville and East Tennessee. Every project includes full design and permitting, a 3D render before construction begins, and a lifetime workmanship warranty on all labor. See all our covered decks and porches.

What a Screened-In Deck Actually Does for You

An open deck in Knoxville is usable for maybe four months of the year comfortably.

The rest of the time, you’re either fighting the humidity and heat of a Tennessee summer, waiting out the afternoon storms that roll through East Tennessee from May through September, or watching the bug situation make the whole thing pointless after dark.

A screened-in deck solves all three of those problems at once. The screening system keeps insects out while keeping airflow in, so the space stays comfortable on evenings when an open deck would be unbearable.

Add a roof and you’ve also handled the rain. The result is a space that gets used the way homeowners actually intended when they built a deck in the first place.

What We Include

Every screened-in deck we build in Knoxville is designed around how you actually want to use the space.

Screening

We work with several screening systems depending on the structure, sun exposure, and what the homeowner is trying to accomplish. Standard screening handles insects and partial sun. Solar screening reduces heat gain on south and west-facing decks where afternoon sun is a significant issue.

Screened Area

For homeowners who want to use the space in cooler months, we can integrate glass panel systems that convert the screened area into a three-season or four-season room.

Popular Add-Ons

Popular additions on screened-in decks in Knoxville include outdoor kitchens and grills, custom fire pits, drink railings, hot tubs, under-deck drainage systems, and low-voltage lighting. We design and build all of these as part of the same project.

What Knoxville Homeowners Say

Tyler McGary

Rated 5 out of 5

Everything from the sales experience to the actual constitution of my deck was fast and excellent quality. They were communicating the steps and what they were doing the entire time.

When we asked about adding a step or two they were able to quickly get that added. Everything looks amazing and I can’t wait to enjoy my deck this summer.

I will definitely be looking to them for additional projects I have planned.

What a Screened-In Deck Costs in Knoxville

FAQs About Screened-In Decks in Knoxville

How much does a screened-in deck cost in Knoxville?

Projects vary depending on size, screening system, and whether roof work is involved. Most projects with roof extensions start from $50,000. We’ll give you an itemized quote based on your specific space after an initial consultation.

Can I screen in my existing deck?

Often, yes. If the existing structure is sound, we can enclose it with a screening system and roof rather than building from scratch, which reduces cost and timeline. We assess the structure before recommending anything.

How long does it take to build a screened-in deck?

Construction typically takes two to three weeks, plus approximately one month for the design and planning phase. We give you a detailed timeline before work starts and stick to it.

Do you handle permits and inspections?

Yes, completely. We design the space, work with an architect on structural plans, conduct soil surveys, pull all permits, and manage every city inspection. You don’t coordinate any part of that process.

Can I use a screened-in deck year-round?

A standard screened deck extends your outdoor season well past what an open deck allows. With glass panel integration, a fire pit, or a heating element, the space becomes genuinely usable through Knoxville’s milder winters as well.

What screening materials do you use?

We work with standard insect screening, solar screening for heat reduction on sun-exposed decks, and glass panel systems for extended cold-weather use. We’ll recommend the right option based on your deck’s orientation and how you want to use the space.

Knoxville sits at the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains along the Tennessee River, with a revitalized downtown and easy access to outdoor recreation across East Tennessee. The city’s warm climate and long outdoor season make screened-in decks one of the most requested home projects in the area, and the City of Knoxville handles all permitting through their One Stop development center.
