Treated Wood Decks
At Tri-State Construction, we take deck building seriously because we know how important it is to get it right. A deck should be more than just a structure—it should be a strong, welcoming space where families can relax and enjoy the outdoors. Our team has built custom decks for both homes and commercial properties throughout Dubuque and the tri-state area, and every project is handled with the same passion and attention to detail. From the first design to the final board, we focus on building decks that are safe, durable, and built to last. When you choose us, you’re choosing a deck you can be proud of for years to come.
Composite Decks
Composite decking is one of the most popular choices for homeowners in Dubuque who want a deck that looks great year after year without the heavy maintenance of wood. Built from durable materials, composite resists fading, staining, warping, and rot—making it perfect for Iowa’s changing weather. With many colors and styles available, we can design a deck that fits your home’s style while giving you a modern, low-maintenance outdoor space. Our team at Tri-State Construction has years of experience installing composite decks across Dubuque and the surrounding tri-state area, ensuring every project is built to last.
Deck Planning, Permits, and Foundations in Dubuque
Building a deck isn’t just about placing boards and railings—it starts long before the first post is set in the ground. At Tri-State Construction, we handle every step of the planning process for decks in Dubuque and the surrounding tri-state area. That includes obtaining the necessary permits, following local building codes, and making sure your deck meets all safety standards. Taking care of permits upfront prevents delays and ensures your project is fully compliant from start to finish.
A strong, durable deck begins with a properly designed foundation. We carefully plan and install footings, piers, and supports to make sure your deck stays level, stable, and secure for years to come. This includes determining the correct spacing, depth, and reinforcement of each structural element to handle weight, resist shifting, and withstand Iowa’s changing weather conditions. Every deck we build starts with this solid groundwork, because a great deck is only as strong as its foundation.
Beyond the technical details, we work closely with you during the planning phase to make sure your deck fits your property, lifestyle, and vision. From initial site evaluation and layout to inspections and final construction, our team takes care of every detail. This means you get a deck that is safe, functional, and visually appealing—ready to become a space where your family, friends, or customers can gather and enjoy the outdoors for years to come.
