Wood Decks

  • Nice multi-level cedar deck in Urbandale featuring our custom "Iowa Style" railing.
  • This well-maintained, pressure-treated deck in Des Moines features multiple levels and cozy bench seating areas around a tree rising thru the deck. No umbrella needed!
  • This multi-level cedar deck in Des Moines’ Urbandale suburb provides spacious area for seating and grilling on the deck and serves as a nice transition to the brick paver patio.
  • This well-maintained, pressure-treated deck in Des Moines features multiple levels and cozy bench seating areas around a tree rising thru the deck. No umbrella needed!
  • In a rural Des Moines area setting, this pressure-treated/southern yellow pine deck surface is protected a bit by a porch roof, so the maintenance is somewhat reduced compared to a fully open deck.  Railing is the most labor-intensive from a maintenance perspective, so Trex Transcends Railing with aluminum balusters was used to minimize that effort.  Not to mention, the white and dark contrasts of the rail against the natural wood provides a stunning look. Decks, porches, patios and more by Archadeck of Central Iowa.
  • This new cedar deck provided a nice seating and grilling area for this Des Moines family near Greenwood Park. We also incorporated a stamped concrete pathway to the deck for access from both a new stamped concrete patio and from a lower-level door. We were sensitive to the narrow and sloped back yard in this design and greatly improved the usage and accessibility of the spaces.

  • This cedar deck in Ames features bayed, wrapped steps off each corner with a floating bench and a privacy fence. The wall pergola adds a nice touch as well. Archadeck is your deck builder in Ames and the entire Central Iowa area.
  • This L-shaped cedar deck offers lots of cozy space from which to enjoy the outdoor setting of this West Des Moines backyard. A Belgard Bergerac paver walkway surrounds the deck and a Weston Wall planter box (inset picture) can also serve as a seat wall for expanded seating options on the deck.

  • YellaWood is a brand of micronized copper treatment of southern yellow pine for use in decking and railing applications. We’ve used it occasionally (supply channels have been a challenge here) more for its clearer, cleaner look, like on this deck in Des Moines’ Beaverdale area. New door added as well.
  • This expansive cedar deck in West Des Moines includes multiple levels and a private nook for a hot tub. Wrap-around stairs provide an open connection to the backyard. Custom-designed and built decks, porches, patios and more by Archadeck of Central Iowa.
  • This combination deck and 3-season room project west of Des Moines near Adel includes this cedar deck that wraps two-sides of the room.  Aluminum balusters in the railing reduce the maintenance effort and "disappear" into the foliage and provide great views of this rural Central Iowa setting.See more views of this deck and 3-season room project by clicking the links here.Decks, Porches and Rooms, Patios and more by Archadeck of Central Iowa.  We’ve been enhancing outdoor (and indoor) spaces like this around the Des Moines area for 17 years.

  • Multi-Level Cedar Deck in Des Moines, south of Grand neighborhood. Brick Paver Patio by Archadeck incorporated into this design.
  • This West Des Moines deck project features Deckorator aluminum balusters in the railing; they blend into the foilage of this wooded backyard for a very pleasing look…and eliminate the hardest part of a deck to seal and stain.
  • YellaWood is a brand of micronized copper treatment of southern yellow pine for use in decking and railing applications. Its a clearer, cleaner grade of pressure-treated lumber and looks great, like on this deck project outside Des Moines in Pleasant Hill.
  • This Windsor Heights project features a wrap-around deck with 2 sets of stairs, privacy fence and corner bench. Pressure-Treated Southern Yellow Pine decking and railing with Deckorator Classic aluminum balusters in black. Great deck in this Des Moines suburb.
  • This Des Moines couple has easy access to their hot tub on this pressure-treated deck. Multi-levels separate the upper grilling-dining-seating area from the lower-level hot tub area. Bench seating near a hot tub is a feature you’ll appreciate.
  • Entrance to this pressure-treated deck in Des Moines via adjacent concrete patio. Flared stairs to upper-level deck. Hot tub sites on lower-level deck.
  • This Clive project involved expanding the original deck both left and right and adding a grand staircase that opened up the deck to a great view of the Country Club Lake.
  • Another picture of this Wakonda area deck in Des Moines by Archadeck of Central Iowa. Pressure treated decking and railing with a dual-direction staircase to the patio and nicely shaded backyard.
  • Another good example of how good a natural wood deck like this pressure-treated, southern yellow pine deck in Altoona can look when well maintained. Pergola with swing support incorporated into this Des Moines area deck project by Archadeck.
  • Cedar decks on brick houses look great! Like this cedar deck in Des Moines Beaverdale neighborhood. We added the French Door as part of this outdoor living project as well.
  • Multi-Level Cedar Deck in Des Moines’ Urbandale suburb. White GAF/Elk Signature PVC railing really sets this deck off. This picture is a full view of this beautiful, multi-faceted, outdoor living room also showing the brick paver patio the deck space was designed to enhance.
  • Cozy and private corner reading area on this pressure treated deck in Des Moines’ Windsor Heights suburb.
  • Deckorator aluminum balusters (Classic / round style on this Clive deck project) offer less obtrusive views over 2×2 balusters. Very popular on the pressure-treated and cedar decks we do around Des Moines as well from the low maintenance aspect.
