Composite & PVC Decks in Cottleville, Missouri

Cottleville homes and this kind of project

Because Cottleville is made up of newer custom and semi-custom homes, the first thing we check for a composite deck here is joist spacing, ledger flashing and footing depth on any frame we might reuse.

The housing stock here: newer custom and semi-custom two-stories and one-and-a-half stories, villa communities, and a handful of older homes in the original village.

Full-sun lots in new subdivisions call for lighter board colors that stay cooler.

Lots, exteriors and approvals in Cottleville

Covered patios, pavilions and screened porches are the favored projects, often with stone, a fireplace and an outdoor kitchen rough-in. Newer subdivisions have active architectural review, and materials usually need to match the house.

New subdivisions in Cottleville mean open lots, no shade and a small patio or deck from the builder. Owners are adding the outdoor space the builder left out: larger decks, roofed patios and privacy from the neighbors behind. HOA approval comes first.

What is included

For Cottleville composite decks we handle design, permit, frame construction or reinforcement, joist tape, hidden-fastener installation, picture framing, fascia, stairs, railing systems and optional low-voltage lighting.

We take on composite deck work across Cottleville, from the Village at Twin Creeks area to neighborhoods along Highway N and Weiss Road and Old Town Cottleville.

What we watch for

Older Cottleville deck frames were often built at twenty-four-inch joist spacing, which no composite manufacturer allows. Adding joists between the existing ones is routine for us.

Working on larger lots in recently built subdivisions, as we do in Cottleville, we plan access for deck carpenters before the first delivery arrives.

Permits and approvals in Cottleville

In Cottleville, a composite deck is reviewed by the City of Cottleville. What follows is a permit and inspections when the frame, stairs or guards change.

Exterior work in Cottleville can also involve active architectural committees that expect materials to match the house, and we put that package together for you.

Schedule and getting to you

On site, a composite deck in Cottleville generally runs one to three weeks.

Cottleville is down I-64 and across on Highway N, a bit over twenty minutes from our Wentzville base. We plan crew days and deliveries around that drive so you get full working days on site.

What moves the price in Cottleville

We price composite & pvc decks in Cottleville from a site visit, not a square-foot figure. These are the items that change the number.

• Railing system and linear footage.
• Pattern complexity: borders, inlays, diagonal or herringbone layouts.
