What Works Best
Deck Styles For Every Property And Purpose
Our design experience spans multiple deck configurations, each selected to address specific site characteristics, architectural styles, and how you intend to use your outdoor space.
Platform Styles
Ground-level decks built close to grade offer economical construction, easy accessibility without stairs, and straightforward layouts that work well on flat properties with simple rectangular footprints
Raised Styles
Elevated deck platforms accommodate homes with high foundations or sloped yards while capturing scenic views, improving drainage away from the house, and creating valuable storage or utility space below.
Multi-Level Styles
Stepped deck configurations handle challenging terrain gracefully while creating distinct activity zones for food preparation, dining, and conversation. Multiple elevations add architectural dimension to larger outdoor spaces.
Freestanding Styles
Detached deck structures placed strategically in yards create spa platforms, garden retreats, or entertainment zones that function independently from the house with their own footings and structural support.
Rooftop Styles
Building upward on flat roofs adds premium outdoor square footage to urban properties or waterfront homes with properly engineered construction, weatherproof membranes, and safe access stairways.
Pool and Spa Styles
Water-adjacent decking requires slip-resistant surfaces, adequate drainage slope, and materials that tolerate constant moisture exposure. We design these areas for safe barefoot traffic and comfortable poolside lounging.
Curved and Cantilevered Styles
Architectural elements like radius edges and projecting sections add contemporary sophistication, follow landscape features naturally, and increase functional deck area without expanding the foundation footprint.
Covered and Screened Styles
Adding roof structures and screening mesh extends your deck's comfortable use through rain showers, intense midday sun, and mosquito season while preserving the outdoor experience with open sides.
Privacy-Enhanced Styles
Thoughtful screen integration, solid railing sections, and strategic deck positioning create peaceful outdoor rooms that offer seclusion from street traffic and neighboring properties without feeling enclosed.
Dependable Construction, Comprehensive Protection
Outdoor Space Builders maintains rigorous quality standards through experienced installation teams, code-compliant construction methods, and premium materials from industry-leading manufacturers. We manage permit applications, schedule required inspections, and provide warranty coverage on both labor and materials. Our emphasis on solid foundation work, accurate structural framing, and professional finish details ensures your deck delivers safe, reliable performance throughout its lifespan.

We heard about Joe from Outdoor Space Builders from our daughter and Son-in-Law. They contracted with him to do their deck, which came out awesome.
From the moment we met Joe, we were impressed by him. He was personable, friendly and very knowledgable about his craft. He took the time to explain the value of TimberTech decks and the many options to select from.
Once the Job started, Joe and his crew (Eric & Eddie), showed up promptly each morning They were friendly, courteous and took the time to answer any questions we had during the project. When the project was finished, they cleaned everything up.The guys were great!
We had never seen a deck like ours. A herringbone pattern was designed for our grill area and a contrasting color door mat was designed in front of our sliders. I could go on… The quality of the work along with attention to detail and artistic design was outstanding!
We were very pleased with the deck. We have already received many complements from friends and neighbors. We highly recommend Joe and Outdoor Space Builders. You won’t be disappointed.
I can’t say enough good things about OSB but more importantly, the owner Joe whom I had the pleasure of dealing with directly. Personable, friendly, courteous, even humorous at times, exceptionally knowledgeable about his craft and a creative thinker. I contacted Joe about a deck for my home this past summer. Joe took my idea and painted a picture of beauty given the obstacles he had to work around based on the design of my home. Outstanding communication and responsive. I didn’t have any issues getting a response to my questions or concerns. I highly recommend OSB if you need to create or rethink your outdoor space.
I was blessed to have found Joe and his crew from Outdoor Space Builders. I am planning to retire soon and am trying to update the house. I had a few workers in to update the electric, install new windows, and I have been so overcharged, and run through the mill with difficulties. By chance I got a call from Joe when I inquired about my deck. The real problem was the 1949 “screen porch” that was in such bad disrepair, it could have been blown down in a bad storm. I also had a hot tub and wanted a nicer place to relax. Joe had a fabulous vision and was so easy too talk to and through the project was always checking to find the best approach and design. I couldn’t have imagined how it would look but I couldn’t be more thrilled with the care and result. I am so sorry I doubted him for a second. I hope he will do my deck and the other proojects I am saving up for.
Sincerely, Audrey
