Built for Colorado living. Designed for your lifestyle.

Custom Deck Building in Lakewood, CO

Your Denver backyard has more potential than you think. With the right deck, it becomes an extension of your home — a place where memories are made, summer nights stretch a little longer, and everyday moments feel a bit more special.

At Reed Custom Designs, we build custom decks in Lakewood, Colorado and surrounding areas like Denver, Golden, Arvada, Wheat Ridge, Littleton, and Boulder. Whether you're imagining a modern platform deck for lounging, a classic cedar deck for hosting BBQs, or a multi-level design with built-in seating and lighting — we’ll help bring that vision to life.

We don’t do cookie-cutter. Every deck we build is tailored to your lifestyle, property layout, and budget. Want space for a hot tub? A cozy firepit corner? Need to work around a sloped yard or existing landscaping? We’ll figure it out — and we’ll build it to last.

We also understand what it takes to build a deck that holds up in Colorado’s unpredictable weather. From blazing sun to snowpack, our decks are constructed using top-quality materials that stand the test of time — so your outdoor space stays safe, stylish, and low-maintenance.

Looking for a trusted, local deck contractor? We’ve got 5-star reviews from happy clients across the Denver metro area, and we’d love to help you create your next outdoor retreat.

It’s more than just a deck. It’s your new favorite room — outside.

FAQs

  • Yes, most deck projects in Lakewood require a permit — especially if the deck is elevated or attached to the home. But don’t worry, we take care of the entire permitting process for you, including submitting plans and ensuring everything is up to code with Jefferson County and local building departments.

  • Most standard decks take 1 to 2 weeks to complete once construction begins. The total timeline (from initial consultation to final walkthrough) can range from 3–5 weeks, depending on design complexity, material availability, and permitting. We’ll give you a clear project schedule up front — and we stick to it.

    • Pressure-treated wood: Affordable and durable

    • Cedar or redwood: Naturally beautiful and weather-resistant

    • Composite decking (like Trex or TimberTech): Low-maintenance and long-lasting.
