O'Fallon homes and this kind of project
Because O'Fallon is made up of two-stories and atrium ranches from the 1985 to 2010 boom, 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: mostly 1985 to 2010 production two-stories, ranches and atrium ranches, with older ranches and bungalows near the original town center.
Frames from the boom years are often at twenty-four-inch spacing and need added joists.
Lots, exteriors and approvals in O'Fallon
Decks from the 1990s are reaching the end of their life, and we replace many with composite. Wood brickmould and garage door trim rot at the base. Established trees give some lots good shade, but west-facing patios still call for a roof.
Builder decks in O'Fallon from these decades were minimal and are now at or past the end of their safe life. Replacement is a chance to correct ledger flashing, deepen footings and build something sized for how families use outdoor space today.
What is included
On O'Fallon resurfacing jobs we document the frame inspection with photos: footing depth where we can verify it, ledger attachment, joist condition and spacing. You see what we see before deciding.
We take on composite deck work across O'Fallon, from Wyndgate to the Highway K corridor and old town O'Fallon.
What we watch for
South and west exposures in O'Fallon get brutal afternoon sun. We steer those decks toward lighter colors and talk about shade structures at the same time.
Site logistics matter: O'Fallon has established subdivision lots with fenced rear yards, so we agree with you where deck carpenters will park, store material and carry out debris.
Permits and approvals in O'Fallon
For a composite deck at a O'Fallon address, the paperwork goes to the City of O'Fallon building division. Expect a permit and inspections when the frame, stairs or guards change.
Exterior work in O'Fallon can also involve neighborhood HOAs and, in WingHaven, a master association, and we put that package together for you.
Schedule and getting to you
On site, a composite deck in O'Fallon generally runs one to three weeks.
From our Wentzville base, O'Fallon is fifteen minutes or so east on I-70 or I-64. That is close enough that your project lead can stop by most days.
What our composite & pvc decks looks like
Photographs from jobs we have built. We do not label photographs by town, so these may or may not be near O'Fallon; they are here so you can judge the standard of finish before we meet.
What moves the price in O'Fallon
We price composite & pvc decks in O'Fallon from a site visit, not a square-foot figure. These are the items that change the number.
- Product line. Entry capped composite to premium PVC is a wide spread.
- New frame versus resurfacing a sound existing frame.
More detail
Our step-by-step method for this work, and the factors that move its price, are laid out on the main composite & pvc decks page. More about the area is on our O'Fallon page.
Composite & PVC Decks in O'Fallon: common questions
How long does a composite deck take in O'Fallon?
One to three weeks. In O'Fallon, permit review by the City of O'Fallon building division and material lead times affect the start date more than our calendar does.
Do I need approval beyond a permit for a composite deck in O'Fallon?
Possibly. In O'Fallon you may be dealing with neighborhood HOAs and, in WingHaven, a master association. City or county approval and private approval are separate, and we prepare both submittals and wait for written approval before ordering materials.
Will it fade or stain?
Current capped products carry fade and stain warranties of twenty-five years or longer. Grease should still be cleaned promptly.
