Outdoor Living, Built for This Valley

Few towns in Minnesota reward a good deck like Winona does. Whether you're looking out at Sugar Loaf, catching the sunset over the Mississippi backwaters, or just want a place to grill while the kids play, a well-built deck turns the best part of living here into part of your house. We've been building them across this valley since 1987.

“Well-built” is the key phrase. A Winona deck has to survive 100-degree swings, snow load, spring freeze-thaw, and — on the bluffs — real wind. That means frost footings poured to depth, correctly sized beams and joists, hidden fasteners that won't back out, and flashing at the ledger board done right so your deck never rots the wall it's attached to. Ledger failures are how decks make the news; ours never will.

Every deck is designed for how you'll actually use it: morning-coffee size or half-the-backyard size, built-in benches, privacy screens, lighting, and railings that don't block the view you built the deck for. Josh and Justin build it personally — most decks take one to two weeks start to finish.

Winona Deck FAQ

How much does a new deck cost in Winona?
Most of our composite decks run $40–$70 per square foot built — a typical 300 sq ft deck lands between $12,000 and $21,000 depending on height, railing choice, and site. Cedar runs roughly 20–30% less upfront. Our Minnesota deck cost guide breaks it all down with real project numbers.
Composite or cedar — which is better here?
Composite wins on lifetime cost and zero maintenance, which matters in a climate that's brutal on stained wood. Cedar wins on upfront price and natural feel. On exposed bluff sites with full sun and wind, we lean composite; under tree cover, either performs well. We'll show you both in person.
How long does a deck take to build?
Most decks take 1–2 weeks once materials arrive, including footings, framing, decking, and railing. Elevated decks and covered porches run longer. We build year-round except deep-frost weeks — booking in winter gets you first slots in spring.
Do I need a permit for a deck in Winona?
Almost always yes — the City of Winona requires permits for attached decks and anything more than 30 inches above grade, and frost footings must be inspected before we pour. We pull the permit and schedule every inspection as part of the job.
