Town and Country homes and this kind of project
Our first visit for a new deck in Town and Country is spent on the house rim where the ledger attaches, the slope of the yard and any easement along the back, which tells us how estate homes ranging from mid-century ranches to new custom builds were put together.
The housing stock here: estate homes from mid-century ranches to new custom construction on lots of an acre or more.
Decks on larger homes run to multiple levels with cable or glass rail and lit stairs.
Lots, exteriors and approvals in Town and Country
Pavilions, pool houses, screened porches and additions. Tree protection and stormwater rules are strict, and we plan site access with them in mind.
Outdoor living in Town and Country means structures with presence: timber pavilions, stone fireplaces, screened rooms with retractable panels and multi-level terraces on sloping lots. Architectural review is usually demanding, and we prepare complete submittals.
What is included
Our Town and Country deck projects include design drawings, the building permit, HOA submittal documents, utility locates, footings, framing, flashing, decking, stairs, railings, low-voltage lighting if wanted, and haul-off of the old deck.
We take on new deck work in and around estates along Mason, Clayton and Conway roads.
What we watch for
Many Town and Country subdivisions have architectural review rules on deck color, railing style and size. We get the approval letter in hand before ordering material.
Site logistics matter: Town and Country has acre-plus lots with protected trees, so we agree with you where a framing crew and a finish carpenter will park, store material and carry out debris.
Permits and approvals in Town and Country
The City of Town and Country, with permits coordinated through St. Louis County is where we file for a new deck in Town and Country, and the job will see footing, framing and final inspections.
Since this work shows from outside, also plan on the city's architectural review and strict site rules. We prepare that submittal alongside the permit.
Schedule and getting to you
On site, a new deck in Town and Country generally runs one to three weeks.
Town and Country is straight down I-64 to the I-270 area, about thirty-five minutes from our Wentzville base. We plan crew days and deliveries around that drive so you get full working days on site.
What our deck building looks like
Photographs from jobs we have built. We do not label photographs by town, so these may or may not be near Town and Country; they are here so you can judge the standard of finish before we meet.
What moves the price in Town and Country
We price deck building in Town and Country from a site visit, not a square-foot figure. These are the items that change the number.
- Shape, levels, built-in seating, lighting and under-deck drainage.
- Height off the ground. Taller decks need more post, bracing, stair and railing.
More detail
Our step-by-step method for this work, and the factors that move its price, are laid out on the main deck building page. More about the area is on our Town and Country page.
Deck Building in Town and Country: common questions
How long does a new deck take in Town and Country?
One to three weeks of construction for most decks. For Town and Country we group trade visits to keep that schedule tight despite the drive.
Do I need approval beyond a permit for a new deck in Town and Country?
Possibly. In Town and Country you may be dealing with the city's architectural review and strict site rules. City or county approval and private approval are separate, and we prepare both submittals and wait for written approval before ordering materials.
Pressure-treated or composite?
Treated pine costs least up front and needs cleaning and sealing every couple of years. Composite costs roughly double for materials, needs only washing and does not splinter. Over fifteen years the costs converge.
