The Premiere Deck Builder in Little Rock, Arkansas
Who should be your Deck Builder?
Finding a family-owned and operated construction business you can trust can sometimes be daunting.
One where the owner gets out there and helps the crew cut boards and climbs ladders is a good sign.
Who else did you find during your internet search for an Outdoor Living specialist (or the term I like: Deck Builder Extraordinaire)?
Did you see the opportunity to contact a franchise company (let’s call them FC’s) like Ready Decks or Archadeck? Rather than trust a corporate entity in a far off land with your hard-saved savings, doesn’t it sound better to work with an actual person with some real skin in the game? For instance:

- The FC’s have to charge more since they owe huge annual franchise fees;
- The local guy can give you a better, non-middleman, deal.
- Some of the “local owners” of FC's don’t even do the work – they sub it out to whoever is available at the time;
- The local guy takes more pride in his work because he is selling himself to you. And his crew is the same every time.
- In the event you are not satisfied, the FC's are backed by fat-pocketed corporate lawyers;
- A local guy will do whatever it takes to make you happy.
- Some of the local FC’s may even CHARGE YOU for designs;
- We will prepare you a to-scale drawing and total project cost for free.
- They can easily sell their franchise, cash out, and move on to the next "fad business idea";
- A local guy can’t get out of responsibility that easily. He needs to continue to work and knows that making YOU happy is the only way his success will continue. Bottom line: The Family Owned contractor has less overhead and much more at stake to motivate him to do the best work at the best price.
Deck Building Codes & Inspections....
Did you know there are actually some local residential building codes that don’t make sense? …Codes that contradict each other? And that some are even dangerous and some of the Code Inspectors don’t even realize it? Well it’s because they aren’t contractors or “building Professionals”. They are just going by a book that was written by someone else who is also not a Deck Building Authority.
So.... since the codes are State Law whether we like it or not, and whether the inspectors actually come inspect or not, we do have to follow them if we're going to build within the city limits of any place that has adopted these codes. So to be sure we keep our record of quality in tact and don't get forced to build a monstrousity, we may decline to build for you if you live within one of these cities. And if we do, it's NOT because we aren't licensed (we are) or because we can't meet some requirement (we can) - it will simply be because we don't want to be involved in wasting your money building you a Deck that could be so much better than code will allow.
~ But enough of that. Back to more positive sounding conversation. ~
Have you looked at our pictures of decks around our site yet? Our portfolio is more extensive than we could put on this one website. Be sure to visit our facebook page to see even more! And, after you contact us, we will gladly hook you up with more if you like.
Hire a Pro. One that caters specifically to your local, residential area. One that offers free deck plans and deck designs. (That’s us, by the way). You need a contractor that will think of things like Arbors & trellises, deck storage, deck covers, skirting, areas for your grill or whatever else you may need. Heck, we have a good number of Privacy Fences, Storage Buildings (built better than the Big Box store's, if you must know), and custom Under Deck dry-space ceilings under our belt as well. The idea here, the theme, if you will, is to focus on things that go together.
Like a lot of “deck builders” you’ll run into, we, too, know how to build whole houses and do a host of other things. We may have laid the tile or wood flooring in our own homes, sure. But a Jack-of-all-trades….(Master of none) is not what you want when having a deck or other outdoor structure built. You want someone who specializes in Deck Design & Construction. You want someone who is passionate about this trade more than any other! (Again, that’s us).

Areas we Service…
Afraid we won’t come all the way out to Sherwood or Jacksonville? Scared we may not commute down to Hot springs? Don’t sweat it. Our comfort zone is not just Benton, Bryant, Maumelle and the two big ones in between (LR and North Little Rock). We’ll even go to Conway, AR, buddy!
Frankly, if you live about an hour’s drive or so from Little Rock, AR we don’t mind. Sure, Pulaski and Saline counties are where we do most of our work. But we’ll go anywhere in the Central AR counties like: Garland, Van Buren, Faulkner, or even Cleburne County!
As long as we can drive home to be with our families at night we’re happy to serve you.
But we have been known to build some decks as far away as the furthest corner of NWA and other places for hospitable clients that had a place to put us up for a few nights while we knocked out their dream deck.
Please feel free to check out our other pages to get a better idea of our Service Area.
And Contact Us today to get your Dream Deck underway!
