How Long Does It Take to Complete a Deck Project?

Picture
At Salt Lake City Decks, we understand that timing is an important consideration when planning your deck project. While each project is unique, the timeline depends on several factors, including the deck size, design complexity, materials, and weather conditions. Here’s a general breakdown of what to expect.




​
Typical Deck Project Timelines
  1. Small Deck (100–200 sq. ft.)
    • Timeframe: 1–2 weeks
    • Details: Basic designs, such as a single-level wood or composite deck with standard railing, can usually be completed quickly.
  2. Medium Deck (200–400 sq. ft.)
    • Timeframe: 2–3 weeks
    • Details: Multi-level designs, custom features like built-in seating, or high-end materials like TimberTech or Trex may require additional time.
  3. Large Deck (400+ sq. ft.)
    • Timeframe: 3–5 weeks
    • Details: Expansive decks with pergolas, covered sections, or intricate custom designs can take longer due to the complexity and scale.
  4. Custom Features and Add-Ons
    • Examples: Built-in planters, lighting, outdoor kitchens, or hot tub supports.
    • Impact on Time: These elements can add a few days to a week, depending on the scope.

Factors That Affect Project Time
  1. Design Complexity
    • Simple, single-level decks take less time compared to multi-level or uniquely shaped designs.
  2. Material Selection
    • Composite materials (e.g., Trex or TimberTech) are easier to work with than hardwoods, which may require additional cutting and sealing.
  3. Permits and Approvals
    • Obtaining permits can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, depending on local regulations in Salt Lake City.
  4. Weather Conditions
    • Rain, snow, or extreme temperatures can delay construction. We monitor weather forecasts closely to keep your project on track.
  5. Site Preparation
    • Clearing the area, grading, and preparing the foundation may require additional time, especially if the site is uneven or has existing structures.

Our Process for Timely Completion
  1. Consultation and Design Phase (1–2 Weeks)
    • Initial consultation, design approval, and permit applications.
    • We work with you to finalize materials, layouts, and custom features.
  2. Site Preparation (1–3 Days)
    • Clearing debris, leveling the site, and preparing the foundation.
  3. Construction Phase (1–5 Weeks)
    • Frame construction, deck installation, railing setup, and any custom features.
    • Regular updates ensure you’re informed every step of the way.
  4. Final Inspection and Finishing Touches (1–2 Days)
    • Cleaning, applying sealants (if needed), and a walkthrough to ensure satisfaction.

At Salt Lake City Decks, we prioritize clear communication and efficient project management:
  • Transparent Scheduling: You’ll receive a detailed timeline during the planning phase.
  • Progress Updates: We provide regular updates to keep you informed.
