How much does it cost to build a deck or patio in San Antonio Hill Country?
It is paramount to the Archadeck design-build team to create a deck or patio design that fulfills your specific requirements. This includes the type of outdoor living structure or structures, the size and orientation of the space, materials used, and more. Because each backyard and project is 100% customized to the client, we do not offer ballpark pricing or baseline pricing.
Do I need a permit to build a deck, porch, or patio in San Antonio?
Most outdoor living building projects will require proper permitting based on local laws and requirements. These requirements, including cost and approval timelines, might vary from city to city throughout Hill Country. As your deck, patio, or porch builders, Archadeck will take care of any necessary project permitting – a service built right into your project cost.
What’s the difference between composite decking and wood decking?
Natural wood, such as Ipe Brazilian hardwood and pressure-treated pine are popular types of decking. Composite decking is synthetic, with cores often comprised of compressed wood fiber/flakes and plastics or polymer and capped with PVC or polymer materials. Composite decking planks will either be capped on three sides or encapsulated on all four. As your deck contractors, Archadeck of San Antonio will be able to recommend the best decking choice for your needs.
