Blue Ridge Builders designs and builds custom decks in wood and composite, and handles the small remodels that make a home work better, anywhere in Illinois. Solid framing, clean finish work and a crew that shows up when we say we will.
Decks are our specialty. We also take on the small remodel projects bigger contractors pass on.
New decks designed around your yard and how you'll use it, from simple platforms to multi-level builds.
Replace rotted boards, rebuild stairs, tighten loose railings and refinish tired wood.
New stairs, landings and railing systems, including cable and composite rail.
Vanities, tile, fixtures and lighting to refresh a tired bathroom.
Basements, trim, doors, drywall and the punch list that's been waiting too long.
Set the size and height, pick a material, and watch it frame up. Bring these numbers to your free estimate.
Joists at 16" on center, steps at about 7" rise. These are planning numbers; your estimate is based on an on-site measurement.
Both make a great deck. Here's how they compare so you can pick what fits your budget and your weekends.
| Pressure-treated wood | Composite | |
|---|---|---|
| Upfront cost | Lower | Higher |
| Upkeep | Clean, stain and seal every few years | Occasional wash, no staining |
| Look | Classic natural wood grain | Wood-look boards in many colors |
| Splinters & rot | Can splinter, check, and rot if neglected | Resists splintering, rot and insects |
| Best for | Tighter budgets and traditional style | Low maintenance over the long haul |
