Our “Surgical” precision ensures your deck is a seamless extension of your home’s architecture, tailored for taste, durability, and universal accessibility.
Trex® Outperforms Wood: Engineered for Utah’s Extremes
Since 1996, Trex has perfected the composite category, and as Utah’s Premier Trex Specialists, we bring that innovation to your backyard. Our high-performance composite boards are “Surgically” engineered to resist the fading, scratches, and stains common in the Intermountain West.
- No More Splinters: Safe for bare feet, toddlers, and pets.
- Zero Maintenance: Never step foot in the "stain aisle" again. No sanding, no painting, no rot.
- Saint George Tough: UV-resistant technology that thrives in 110°F desert heat.
- Eco-Friendly Heart: Made from 95% recycled materials, protecting the environment for the next generation.
- Wood, Composite, Trex, and synthetic decking options are also available
A Sanctuary Without Barriers: Universal Accessibility
True luxury is a home that welcomes everyone. We are Utah’s leaders in Universal Deck Design, ensuring your outdoor space is safe and navigable for every family member.
- Wheelchair & Mobility Access: We specialize in "Zero-Entry" transitions and ADA-compliant ramp systems that blend beautifully into your deck’s aesthetic.
- Tactile Design for the Blind: We utilize high-contrast Trex® border colors and tactile "warning strips" to provide clear, safe pathways for those with visual impairments.
- Visual Safety for the Deaf: Our integrated LED lighting systems can be synced with home alerts, providing essential visual cues and total peace of mind for the Deaf community.

We don’t just build on top; we build to last. Using techniques inspired by the highest industry standards, we offer:

Frequently Asked Questions (Homeowner Guide)
Every project is unique, but we believe in total transparency. For a Signature Re-Decking (using your existing sound structure), projects typically range from $25 to $50 per square foot. For a New Custom Sanctuary—built from the ground up with a 50-year Trex warranty and total accessibility—the investment typically ranges between $65 and $95 per square foot.
This ensures we use the “Surgical” precision your home deserves, with no shortcuts on the framing or safety features that protect your family.
Wood rots, warps, and splinters in Utah’s climate. Trex is a “set it and forget it” solution. You get the beauty of wood grain without the back-breaking yearly maintenance.
A simple soap-and-water wash is all it takes. Because our integration is “Surgical,” your deck is designed to shed water and resist pests automatically.
