Your backyard should feel like a natural extension of your home. A professionally designed and constructed deck can transform an underused yard into a functional outdoor living area built for long-term enjoyment. Archadeck of Southern Indianapolis designs and builds custom decks tailored to your home, property layout, and lifestyle.
Our trained, licensed, and certified contractors follow a structured Job Process Methodology that guides every phase of the project.

Why Homeowners Choose Our Team
Selecting a deck contractor requires careful consideration. Safety, craftsmanship, and communication all play important roles in the outcome. Many contractors offer standard layouts with limited customization. Our approach integrates custom design and construction under one team so the finished deck feels cohesive with your home.
When you work with us, you collaborate with a unified team rather than separate designers and builders. We evaluate your yard, listen to your goals, and develop a design that balances aesthetics, usability, and budget. This streamlined communication process reduces misunderstandings and keeps expectations clear throughout construction.
As part of a national outdoor living brand, our Plainfield team follows established construction standards and works with trusted material manufacturers such as AZEK and TimberTech. These partnerships allow us to offer durable composite and PVC decking products designed to resist moisture, fading, and wear. We also discuss natural wood options for homeowners who prefer traditional materials, explaining maintenance requirements and expected lifespan.
Attention to detail distinguishes our work. Stair placement, railing design, traffic flow, and sightlines from inside your home are carefully considered. The goal is to create a deck that looks intentional and functions comfortably for daily use and gatherings.

Our Deck Building Process
A structured process helps reduce stress and maintain clarity during construction.
Design Consultation
The project begins with an on-site consultation. We review your property, discuss how you intend to use the deck, and evaluate factors such as grading, access, and existing structures. This step establishes priorities and identifies any constraints early.
Custom Design and Planning
Next, we develop a custom design and detailed proposal. We consider yard dimensions, sun exposure, interior views, and layout efficiency. During this phase, you select materials, railing systems, and layout features aligned with your budget and maintenance preferences.
We also address local building codes and permitting requirements in Plainfield. Construction documents are prepared to meet regulatory standards, and scheduling is coordinated accordingly.
Construction and Final Review
During construction, our crew follows the approved design and maintains organized worksites. We coordinate inspections and material deliveries to keep the project progressing efficiently. After completion, a final walkthrough allows you to review the finished deck, discuss maintenance guidance, and understand warranty coverage.
Deck Materials and Design Options
Material selection influences appearance, maintenance, and longevity. Composite and PVC decking from AZEK and TimberTech offer low-maintenance performance with a range of colors and textures. These products are engineered to resist moisture and fading, making them suitable for Indiana's seasonal weather patterns.
For homeowners who prefer wood, we explain species options, sealing requirements, and long-term upkeep expectations. Ventilation, fasteners, and moisture management techniques are also discussed to promote durability.
Design features can enhance both comfort and usability. Options include:
- Integrated seating or planters.
- Wide stairs for gathering space.
- Multi-level layouts.
- Pergolas for shade.
- Lighting for stairs and railings.
- Transitions to patios or walkways.
Each feature is evaluated based on how you plan to use the space, ensuring the design fits your daily routine rather than following trends.
Built for Safety and Long-Term Use
Structural integrity is central to every project. Proper footings, secure framing connections, and code-compliant railings contribute to a safe deck structure. Attention is given to baluster spacing, stair proportions, and railing height to support everyday safety.
Indiana's freeze-thaw cycles, summer heat, and rainfall influence material and installation decisions. We incorporate construction methods designed to manage moisture and temperature changes effectively.
Two comprehensive warranties reinforce our commitment to quality. One covers structural integrity, and the other reflects our dedication to client satisfaction. Warranty details are reviewed so homeowners understand coverage and long-term protection.
