Deck construction built around your property
Custom Decks for Foothill, Mountain, and Valley Homes
A good deck should fit the home, the land, and the way your family uses the space. Ogden Construction builds new decks, replaces worn decks, and repairs damaged structures across El Dorado County, Lake Tahoe, and the greater Sacramento area.
Local projects can bring very different needs. A level yard in Folsom is not the same as a steep foothill lot or a high-elevation home near Tahoe. We plan the framing, footings, drainage, stairs, railings, and decking around the site instead of using the same plan for every home.
Material guidance
We help you compare Trex, other composite options, and redwood based on upkeep, look, and budget.
Clear project scope
You get a defined plan for materials, major work, timing, and next steps before construction begins.
Code-focused construction
We build with safety, structural support, railings, stairs, and local requirements in mind.

Trex, Composite, and Redwood Decks
The best material depends on the look you want, the amount of upkeep you prefer, and the conditions around your home.
Trex and Composite Decking
A lower-maintenance option with many colors, board styles, and railing choices. Composite can be a strong fit for homeowners who do not want regular staining.
See composite deck projectsRedwood Decking
A natural wood option with a warm look that fits many foothill and mountain homes. Redwood needs routine care but can be cleaned, stained, and refinished over time.
See redwood deck projectsRailings, Stairs, and Finishes
Complete the deck with metal, composite, wood, or hog-panel railings, plus stairs, trim, fascia, and other useful details.
