Custom Decks for a home in Midvale, Utah

Custom Decks for Midvale Homes

Custom work in Midvale usually solves a specific problem rather than chasing size. On a split-entry home east of State Street, the drop from the main floor to the yard can be steep enough that one long stair feels awkward. A two-level design, with an upper deck off the kitchen and a lower deck closer to the lawn, breaks that height into usable spaces and gives each one its own job, such as dining up top and lounging below. It also keeps the stair shorter and safer for kids and older family members.

On the narrow lots around historic Main Street, custom features help a small deck do more. Built-in benches along the edge free up floor space that loose chairs would take. Storage under a raised section can hold cushions, tools or gear for trips to the Jordan River Parkway. Planters can screen a nearby fence or neighbor's window, and lighting along stairs and rails extends summer evenings. Each feature adds weight and detail, so we frame for local snow load, set footings below the frost line and plan how water drains around built-ins.

From first sketch to final railing, custom Midvale projects stay with one locally owned and operated team at SLC Deck Builders. Two-level split-entry decks and compact built-ins suit many Midvale homes especially well. We visit, measure the lot and listen to how your household uses the yard, then sketch options and show material samples. Owners in Bingham Junction or near Union Park get help assembling drawings for HOA review, and we point out when a permit is likely. With the design settled, we give you an on-site estimate that reflects the features you picked.

Key Benefits

Built for Your Terrain. Sloped lots and walkout basements are common in Midvale'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 Midvale 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

Is a two-level deck practical on a Midvale split-entry home?

Often it is one of the best options. The upper level sits at your main floor and the lower level sits a few steps above the yard, which breaks up a tall drop and creates two distinct spaces. It does take more framing and footings than a single raised deck. We will sketch both versions so you can compare them on your lot.

Can a custom deck add storage on a small Midvale lot?

Yes. Built-in benches with lift-up lids, enclosed storage under a raised section and cabinets along a wall are common ways to store cushions, bikes and outdoor gear. The storage needs to shed water and allow airflow, since snowmelt can collect in enclosed spaces. We will design it so it stays dry and does not trap moisture against the framing.

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.
