Covered Composite Deck & Outdoor Living in El Dorado Hills
A failing wood deck replaced with a low-maintenance composite deck, gable roof cover, and ceiling fan — a shaded outdoor room built for foothill sun and indoor-outdoor living most of the year.

The original pressure-treated deck was under-framed, splintering, and offered no shade, leaving the west-facing deck unusable on hot foothill afternoons. The owners also wanted framing and materials suited to the area's fire-hazard exposure.
We demoed to grade and rebuilt on properly-sized footings with a code-compliant ledger and joist plan engineered for seismic and expansive-soil conditions, then installed composite decking with hidden fasteners and a metal railing. A gable roof cover with tongue-and-groove ceiling, fan, and recessed lights turned the deck into a true outdoor room.
A shaded, low-maintenance outdoor living space with composite decking warrantied for decades, usable through the foothills' hottest months and built with ignition-resistant details in mind.
