Built on the Structure Underneath
There’s a lot you can see on a finished deck, and almost none of it is the part that decides how long the deck lasts. Footings, framing, ledger connections, drainage. That’s what you’re standing on ten years from now, and it’s where we start on every job.
We’ve been building decks in the Austin metro since 2011, more than a thousand of them, across everything from small ground-level platforms to multi-level builds on steep Hill Country lots. Clay soil moves here. Summers are hard on fasteners and finishes. Storms arrive fast. We size footings and frame for those conditions rather than to a generic span table, because a deck built for somewhere else doesn’t hold up here.
Permits are coordinated through our permit partners, so the paperwork doesn’t slow your build down. Tell us what you’re picturing and we’ll book a site visit to price it from what we actually see on your lot.
What We Build
Nine services, and we’ll tell you honestly which one your deck actually needs.
New decks built from the ground up, framed for your lot and finished in the material that fits how you’ll use the space. We handle footings, framing, decking, railings and stairs.
Layout, levels and materials worked out before anything gets built, around the shape and grade of your yard. You’ll see the plan before we start cutting.
Trex, TimberTech and Fiberon boards that hold their colour through Texas summers and ask for little more than a rinse. More up front, and almost nothing to maintain afterwards.
Cedar brings natural rot and insect resistance and a warm grain that ages well. Pressure-treated pine gives you solid structure and real value when the budget matters more than the boards.
Slip-resistant surfaces that stay cooler underfoot, framed and graded so water moves away from the pool. Built for wet feet and bare soles in August.
Stepped builds that use a sloped lot instead of fighting it, with engineered transitions and stairs. Common on the steeper lots west of the city.
Loose boards, soft spots and wobbly railings get worse fast. We assess the structure first, then fix what’s failing so the deck is solid again without a full rebuild.
When the framing is past saving, we tear out the old structure, rebuild what needs rebuilding and install a new surface. Often in a different layout than what was there.
Restaurant patios, hotel outdoor dining and multi-family shared decks. ADA-compliant ramping and commercial code work are part of the scope.
Choosing a Material
We build in three families, and the right one depends on your budget and how much upkeep you want to do.
Composite holds its colour and asks for little more than a rinse, which suits people who’d rather use the deck than maintain it. It costs more up front, and we’re straight about that. Cedar and hardwood give you real wood and natural rot resistance, and want resealing every two to three years to stay their best. Pressure-treated pine is the value option and holds up well when it’s maintained.
There isn’t a right answer for everyone, and we won’t push you toward the pricier option for the sake of it. We’ll walk you through the trade-offs on site, with the boards in front of you.
Where We Build
We work across the Austin metro, and a lot of our residential work sits in the western corridor. Steep lots are common out there, and slope changes how a deck gets framed, so it’s worth having someone who builds on them regularly rather than occasionally.
Our Bee Cave deck builders and West Lake Hills deck builders work lots where impervious cover and tree ordinance review add steps most builders don’t plan for. We build the timeline around that instead of discovering it halfway through.
Our Lakeway deck builders cover the lakeside communities, and we also build across Austin, Round Rock, Cedar Park, and the surrounding metro.
How We Work
Site visit.
We walk the property, measure, photograph what’s there and note drainage, clearance and setback constraints. You get a price range from that visit, based on what we’ve seen rather than a number over the phone.
Design and materials
We work through layout and material against your budget, your sun exposure and how you plan to use the space. Renderings when the design has features worth seeing first.
Permits.
Our permit partners prepare and submit the paperwork and coordinate inspections through City of Austin Development Services wherever a permit is required.
Build
Footings sized to the soil, framing to code, hidden fasteners on hardwood and composite, and coated or stainless hardware throughout.
Walkthrough
We inspect footings, framing, fastening and railings with you, then hand over a maintenance schedule matched to your material and your warranty paperwork.
Why Homeowners Choose Us
Since 2011. Fourteen years building decks in Central Texas, more than a thousand of them.
Structure first. We spend our attention on the framing you can’t see, because that’s what decides whether the deck is still solid in a decade.
Straight about materials. We build in budget and premium materials both, and we’ll tell you which one actually fits rather than steering you to the expensive one.
One-year craftsmanship warranty. On the installation, in writing, handed over at the final walkthrough.
Fully insured. General liability and workers’ compensation coverage on every job. Insurance certificates available on request for commercial projects and HOA-managed properties.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long has Titan Deck Company Austin been building decks?
We’ve been building decks in Central Texas since 2011, more than a thousand of them. Most of our residential work is in the Austin metro and the western Hill Country corridor. We’ve built everything from small ground-level platforms to multi-level decks on steep lots, and on lots where the grade does most of the deciding. What hasn’t changed in that time is where we start: the structure underneath.
What should I look for when hiring deck builders in Austin?
Ask what’s under the deck, not just what’s on top. Footing depth, framing material, fastener type, and how they’ll handle drainage on your particular lot. Ask who pulls the permit and what happens if an inspection flags something. Ask for the warranty in writing before anything gets signed, and ask to see a deck they built five years ago rather than last month.
What deck materials do you build with?
Composite from brands like TimberTech AZEK, plus Trex and Fiberon; Western Red Cedar; and pressure-treated pine. Material drives lifespan, upkeep and appearance more than anything else does. Composite costs more up front and asks almost nothing of you afterwards. Cedar gives you real wood and natural rot resistance, and wants resealing every two to three years. We walk through the trade-offs during the site visit rather than deciding for you.
Do I need a permit for a deck in Austin?
Decks above a set height, decks attached to the house, and larger structures need a permit. Requirements differ by jurisdiction, and West Lake Hills adds impervious cover and tree ordinance review on top, which adds time most people don’t budget for. Our permit partners handle the drawings, the submissions and the inspection scheduling, so you aren’t chasing paperwork while the build waits.
How long does a deck build take?
Most residential decks run one to two weeks on site once the design is settled and permits are coordinated. Multi-level builds and sloped lots take longer, because the framing is more involved and the transitions have to be engineered. Weather moves things too, since we won’t rush footings in the rain. You get a project-specific timeline with the written estimate.
Do you build commercial decks?
Yes. Restaurant patios, hotel outdoor dining and multi-family shared decks, with ADA-compliant ramping and commercial code work as part of our standard scope. Commercial projects usually run longer than residential ones, because inspection scheduling and site access are less flexible, and the structural requirements are heavier. We plan the timeline around those constraints from the start rather than discovering them partway through.
