When homeowners begin searching for a deck builder in Columbus, IN, they often expect a few estimates, compare designs, and choose the best fit. Unfortunately, that isn't always how the process begins.
For one Columbus homeowner, it took two years of reaching out to contractors—many of whom never even showed up to the property—just to get an estimate.
Everything changed after seeing an Archadeck of Indianapolis South advertisement in the Tipton Magazine.
A Different Experience from the Very First Call
Instead of an automated phone system or voicemail, the homeowner was greeted by a real person.
Within just three days, the design consultant visited the property to discuss the project. One week later, the homeowner received professionally designed renderings, a project timeline, and transparent pricing—giving them the confidence to finally move forward.
From there, our team worked to make the entire experience as seamless as possible. Between our Office and Construction Managers, communication flows every step of the way, coordinating materials, scheduling, inspections, and the installation crew to ensure the project stays on track.
Reimagining an Unsafe Outdoor Space
The existing backyard deck had seen better days.
The space featured aging lumber, broken stairs, minimal railing, overgrown landscaping, and disconnected deck levels that made navigating the backyard both inconvenient and unsafe. Railroad ties surrounding the area had also deteriorated over time, creating additional hazards and limiting the usability of the outdoor living space.

Our design focused on creating a cohesive, safe, and inviting outdoor environment while maximizing the home's existing elevation changes.
The finished project included a brand-new multi-level pressure-treated lumber deck that now seamlessly connects each outdoor living space with wide stairways, sturdy railings, and a layout that improves both safety and functionality.

Four Days to Complete an Incredible Transformation
Every project has its unique challenges.
For this build, our team first removed the existing railroad ties before preparing the new footings. Although one day was lost waiting for required footing inspections, the entire deck installation was completed in just four consecutive working days once construction began.
Our installation crews arrived on schedule each morning, worked efficiently throughout the day, and remained focused on delivering exceptional craftsmanship from start to finish.
As the homeowner shared:
"The crew went straight to work upon arrival and not one worker strayed from the site or just sat around. All worked in harmony and it was obvious that they enjoyed working together, knew their individual assignments and were highly experienced."
Built to Be Enjoyed for Years to Come
Today, what was once an unsafe, disconnected backyard has become a beautiful outdoor retreat.
The homeowner now enjoys a safe, functional multi-level deck that not only enhances daily living but has also become a conversation piece throughout the neighborhood.
They shared that the quality of the craftsmanship exceeded their highest expectations and that neighbors—and even strangers passing by—have stopped to compliment the finished project.
