San Antonio homeowners are transforming their backyards into modern day retreats with outdoor kitchens, shaded patios and hardscapes, and decks they’ve always dreamed of. All this can make a home feel like a resort. But before you dive into your own outdoor upgrade, it's crucial to choose the right patio and deck contractor. Whether you're envisioning morning coffee on your new deck or hosting family occasions beneath a patio cover, here are the key questions to ask your deck and patio builder to make sure your space fits your lifestyle.

At Archadeck of San Antonio Hill Country, we never shy away from questions. In fact, our design-and-build process fosters open communication between potential clients and clients alike. Whether you choose to speak with one deck and patio builder or three, these questions should all be easily answered by a reputable company.
