Custom Decks for a home in Holladay, Utah

Custom Decks for Holladay Homes

Holladay's larger lots and mature landscaping make it a natural place for custom work. A new custom home on an older parcel often calls for a deck that matches the house in scale, with separate areas for cooking, dining and lounging. On lots near Big Cottonwood Creek or by Knudsen Park at the south end of Holladay Boulevard, a deck can be shaped to look out over the trees and water while staying well back from the banks. Some of the most memorable decks here are built around a single large tree.

Custom features bring their own planning in this setting. A deck that wraps a trunk needs an opening sized for the tree to keep growing, with framing that carries loads around it. Multi-level layouts can step down to meet a garden path or older patio. Built-in benches, planters and lighting make a deck work for long summer evenings, but they also create places where leaves collect, so we detail them to drain and stay easy to sweep. Every level is framed for snow load, with footings below the frost line and placed to avoid the biggest roots.

Custom work is the part of the job our locally owned and operated team enjoys most, and Holladay yards give us plenty to design around. Our crew visits, studies the trees, grade and views and listens to how you want to use the space. Then we sketch options, show material samples and explain where a permit, stream-related rules or HOA review might apply to your plan. When the design is settled, you get an on-site estimate that reflects the features you chose, so you can decide with a full picture.

Key Benefits

Built for Your Terrain. Sloped lots and walkout basements are common in Holladay's foothill neighborhoods. Our crew designs multi-level decks, elevated platforms and stair systems that make the most of tricky grades while keeping the structure sound under heavy winter snow loads.
Features That Fit How You Live. Built-in seating, planters, pergolas, outdoor kitchens and lighting turn a deck into a true outdoor room. We can help you decide which features are worth including, how they fit together and how they affect the structure and your overall budget.
Views Front and Center. Many Holladay homes look out on the Wasatch Front, the Oquirrhs or the valley lights. A custom layout can position seating, choose railing styles and set deck height to frame those views, so the scenery becomes part of the design instead of an afterthought.
Mixed Materials Done Right. Custom decks often combine composite decking, natural wood accents, metal railings and stone or concrete transitions. We detail how those materials meet, expand and drain, so the finished deck looks intentional and handles Utah's temperature swings without gaps, warping or water problems. We stand behind our work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you build a custom deck around a tree in my Holladay yard?

Yes, and it is one of the more rewarding projects we do. The opening around the trunk needs extra space so the tree can grow, and framing has to carry loads around it without leaning on the trunk. Footings go where roots allow. We will also talk about leaf and sap drop, since the boards closest to the tree will collect the most.

I'm building a new custom home in Holladay. When should I plan the deck?

Ideally early, while the house plans are still flexible. Door placement, ledger attachment points and grade around the house all affect what the deck can be. If you live in a newer development or gated community, the HOA may also review the deck. We are glad to look at your plans and talk through a design that fits the new home.

What makes a deck custom?

A custom deck is designed specifically for your home and lot rather than adapted from a standard plan. That might mean multiple levels, curved edges, wraparound sections, built-in features, a pergola, integrated lighting or a layout shaped around a view or a tree. Custom decks also tend to combine materials in more creative ways. The common thread is that the design starts with your space and goals, and our team works out the structure from there.

Are custom decks much more expensive?

Custom features add cost, but the amount depends on what you choose. Multiple levels, elevated framing, curves, built-ins, pergolas and upgraded railings each add materials and labor. Some homeowners keep costs manageable by choosing one or two signature features rather than everything at once, or by planning the deck in phases. We can price different options so you can see where your budget goes furthest.
