Deck or Paver Patio? You Can Decide – But You Don’t Have to!
“What’s better, a deck or a paver patio?” It’s a question we get from many prospective clients.

DeckTec Client Review – Hadsell, Evergreen, CO, 2021
One year ago the fantastic crew of Cody, Will, Andy and Tommy were busy building our dream deck. It was a pleasure having this crew here every day.

Most people swear by it with a burrito, or the stickiest-ickyest cheese fries. Drool. Some make the mistake of eating too much of it, so they lock themselves in their bathroom for hours. Wait! No! I'm not talking about that! I'm talking about CHILI! Colorado Green Chili! We have high standards when it comes to green chili. So we set out to list some of the best places to[...]
Control the Elements to Maximize Your Outdoor Living
Colorado weather is unpredictable. As Coloradoans, we have learned to be dubious of the forecast and adapt to rapidly changing conditions. Colorado weather is part of our identity, a badge of honor, and the reason you keep a winter coat in your car all of the time. The same forethought you have while enjoying golf or biking also applies to your outdoor living. A wide-open deck plan makes for a great place to entertain, but what do deck owners do when the sun starts beating down or that 5 percent chance of showers turns into a downpour? You might not[...]
