The Future of Outdoor Living Starts with the Right Deck
Homeowners Want More Than a Backyard Upgrade Today’s homeowners are thinking differently about outdoor living. A new deck is no longer just a weekend project or a seasonal luxury.

Instead of focusing on isolated features, families are investing in complete outdoor living environments that feel beautiful, function year-round, and add lasting value to the property. At DeckTec, we help homeowners create outdoor spaces that are not only visually stunning,[...]

When a Deck Becomes a Room
Whether it’s wood floors, wood furniture or, of course, wood decks and roofs, I’ve always had tremendous appreciation not only for the durability of wood but for the warm, welcoming atmosphere that wood contributes to our living spaces. As I see it, there’s no substitute for the way that wood enhances our sense of home. Wood offers a solid, authentic and earthy feel, with subtle warm tones and natural markings that make each piece as unique as each of our customers. Nothing manufactured or mass-produced can possibly compare with what nature has provided, and that’s why DeckTec relies exclusively on[...]
Best Local Cold Weather Micro-Brrrews
Beer is a big part of the Colorado lifestyle! For every camping trip, whitewater adventure or 14’er summit there’s beer shared on the back of a tailgate, at one of Colorado’s 300+ taprooms or on your custom redwood deck. But what to do when the temperature drops and the flakes start flying? We’re blessed with plenty of excellent Colorado craft beers for the 65 days of the year when the sun isn’t shining. Find them at your local brewery or stock up until deck weather returns in the spring. These malt-focused beers are perfect for cozying up by the fire[...]
