Elevated Decks in Swannanoa

Expert Construction for Sloped Mountain Properties

Your Swannanoa hillside property presents opportunities for elevated deck construction that transforms challenging terrain into spectacular outdoor living space. Sexton Deck Builders specializes in building elevated decks that navigate grade changes while providing level, stable platforms for entertaining and relaxation.

Elevated decks require engineering expertise beyond standard construction, with proper post sizing, beam spans, and bracing calculations that ensure safety at heights. Our experience with Swannanoa's mountain topography means your elevated deck receives the structural attention these challenging projects demand.

We construct elevated decks that capitalize on Swannanoa Valley views while creating usable outdoor space on properties where flat ground is limited or positioned poorly for outdoor enjoyment.

Structural Engineering for Height

Swannanoa's position along the Swannanoa River valley includes numerous properties with significant elevation changes from house level to usable yard space. Our elevated deck construction addresses these challenges with engineering designed for mountain conditions.

Tall posts require increased footing sizes, cross-bracing to prevent sway, and beam connections that transfer loads safely to the foundation. We size every component based on actual deck height and span rather than applying standard specifications inappropriate for elevated applications.
