Custom Deck Builder in Colorado Springs
Colorado Springs is one of the best places in the country to enjoy outdoor living. With over 300 days of sunshine a year, a well-designed deck isn’t just a nice addition to your home. It’s an extension of your living space that you’ll use and enjoy for years to come. Whether you’re envisioning a sprawling multi-level deck for entertaining, a simple and elegant space for quiet evenings outside, or something in between, Greg Unseth Painting & Exteriors has the experience and craftsmanship to build it.
As a custom deck builder serving Colorado Springs and the surrounding Front Range communities for over 40 years, we listen to your wants and needs, present all available options, and create a plan and computerized model so you can visualize exactly what your new deck will look like before construction begins. Along with our licensed partners, we pull all necessary building permits and ensure every build meets local Colorado Springs building codes. The result is a deck you’ll be proud to show off for years to come.
Composite and PVC Decking in Colorado Springs
Today’s composite and PVC decking products have come a long way, and for good reason. Colorado homeowners want a beautiful outdoor space without the ongoing maintenance demands that come with traditional wood decking. Composite and PVC decking delivers exactly that, combining the natural look of wood with the durability and low maintenance of engineered materials.
Our composite and PVC decking products are resistant to moisture, insects, fading, and the kind of temperature swings that can cause traditional wood to warp, crack, and splinter over time. They come in a wide range of colors, textures, and finishes to suit any aesthetic, from natural wood tones to contemporary grays and everything in between. Once installed, composite and PVC decking requires virtually no maintenance beyond occasional cleaning, giving you more time to actually enjoy your outdoor space.
We work with the latest and best composite and PVC products on the market and will walk you through the options available during your free design consultation so you can make an informed choice that fits your vision and your budget.
Redwood Decking in Colorado Springs
For homeowners who want the unmatched beauty and warmth of natural wood, redwood decking is in a class of its own. Few materials can match the rich, warm tones and natural character of a freshly installed redwood deck, and the natural durability of redwood makes it a long-lasting choice when properly maintained.
Redwood is naturally resistant to insects and decay, which gives it a leg up on many other wood species for outdoor use. It does require more maintenance than composite alternatives, including periodic washing, brightening, and staining to protect the wood and maintain its appearance over time. Greg Unseth Painting & Exteriors specializes in redwood deck maintenance and treatment using Super Deck stain products, so whether we build your redwood deck or you already have one that needs attention, we can keep it looking beautiful year after year.
Deck Railing Options
The railing system you choose can dramatically affect the overall look and feel of your finished deck. Greg Unseth Painting & Exteriors presents a full range of railing options to complement your deck design and meet your functional needs. Our railing options include:
- Standard 2 inch by 2 inch picket railing for a classic, clean look
- Snow railing designed to handle Colorado’s winter conditions
- Iron railing for a more elegant, high-end aesthetic
- Built-in bench options that add seating and style to your deck perimeter
As your custom deck builder, we’ll walk you through all available railing options and help you choose the system that best complements your home’s architecture and your personal style.
The Custom Deck Design Process
Building a custom deck is a collaborative process, and we take that seriously. Here’s what you can expect when you work with Greg Unseth Painting & Exteriors on your deck project:
We start with a thorough consultation to understand your vision, how you plan to use the space, and what your budget looks like. From there we present all available material and design options and create a computerized model of your deck so you can see exactly what the finished product will look like before any construction begins. Once you’re happy with the design, we handle all permitting through our licensed partners and get to work.
Throughout the build, our team works with pride and precision, treating your home and property with the same care we’d give our own. We don’t consider the job done until you’re completely satisfied with the finished result.
Deck Maintenance and Repair in Colorado Springs
Colorado Springs weather can be tough on wood decks. The combination of intense UV exposure, freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow loads, and summer heat creates conditions that accelerate wear on untreated or poorly maintained wood surfaces. Regular maintenance is essential for keeping a wood deck looking great and structurally sound over the long term.
Greg Unseth Painting & Exteriors offers comprehensive deck maintenance services including washing, brightening, and staining with Super Deck stain products. Our contracting team also handles deck repairs of all kinds, from rotted flooring and damaged handrails to sagging deck joists and deteriorating posts. Whether your deck needs a quick refresh or more significant structural work, we have the skills and experience to restore it properly.
