Decks Built for How You Actually Live in Simpsonville, KY


A good deck needs to handle real life: summer humidity, sudden spring downpours, heavy foot traffic, and winter freezes. Whether you want a large multi-level deck for weekend cookouts or just a quiet back porch for your morning coffee, we build to fit your lot and your routine.

Every frame we set meets local building codes, and we spend extra time making sure concrete footings go deep enough so your deck won't shift or drop over time. If your existing deck is rotting, sagging, or just showing its age, we can tear it down and replace it with something far more durable.

  • Proper framing and deep concrete footings on every build
  • Materials selected for Kentucky’s weather extremes
  • Permits handled — we manage local code compliance
  • Clear timelines and honest communication

FAQ

Questions We Get Asked Often About Deck Building in Simpsonville, KY

Yes. Decked Out Craftsmen serves Simpsonville along with neighboring communities across Shelby and Jefferson counties. Because we operate locally, we can get out to your house quickly for site visits, estimates, or progress checks during construction. Call us at 502-855-0188 to talk through your project.
A simple ground-level platform or straight board replacement usually takes three to five business days once footings are set and materials arrive. Larger multi-level composite builds with under-deck drainage, custom stair wraps, and integrated lighting typically take two to three weeks. Bad weather can add a few days, but we keep you updated every step of the way.
Estimates depend on square footage, site elevation, framing needs, and material choices. We break down labor and material costs clearly so you can see where your money goes. If a full composite deck is outside your planned spend, we can look at pressure-treated framing with composite tops, or select quality wood options that match your goals without using low-grade lumber.
We install pressure-treated pine, cedar, exotic hardwoods, and low-maintenance composite systems from brands like Trex and TimberTech. Railing options range from standard wood balusters to black aluminum spindles, stainless steel cables, or tempered glass panels. You can also add built-in benches, wrap-around stairs, or outdoor kitchen cutouts.
Wood decks need regular care: a pressure wash once a year and a fresh coat of stain or sealer every two to three years to block moisture and sun damage. Composite decking only requires occasional cleaning with a soft brush and mild soap. If your existing deck shows signs of age, we also provide board replacement, structural reinforcement, and refinishing.
In most cases, yes. Building codes in Simpsonville and Shelby County require permits for new deck construction, additions, and structural modifications. This ensures footings are deep enough to clear the frost line and ledger boards are properly attached to your house framing. We handle the entire permitting process and schedule all building inspections for you.
For many homeowners, yes. Kentucky gets hot summers and freeze-thaw winter cycles that warp and split raw wood over time. Capped composite boards don't rot, splinter, or attract carpenter bees, and they never need staining. The initial material cost is higher, but you save years of maintenance costs and labor down the road.
We back our structural framing and installation labor with a craft warranty. On top of our labor coverage, composite decking materials come with manufacturer warranties ranging from 25 to 50 years against staining, fading, and structural defects. We give you written warranty details before any work begins.
