Custom Deck Design & Installation

Your backyard should be more than just grass and fences. It should be a place where you actually want to spend time. That's where custom deck design comes in. When you work with SteadyWorks Odessa Deck Builder, you're not getting a cookie-cutter deck. You're getting a space designed around how you live.

We've been building custom decks in Odessa, TX since 2024, and we've learned that no two families use their outdoor space the same way. Some folks want a big entertaining area for barbecues. Others want a quiet spot to drink coffee in the morning. We design and build decks that match your lifestyle, not just what's easiest to build.

Why Custom Design Matters

Here's the thing about pre-made deck plans: they're designed for everyone, which means they're not perfect for anyone. Your property has unique features. Maybe you have a slope in your yard. Maybe you want to work around a tree or connect to an existing patio. A custom design takes all of that into account.

We start by visiting your property and talking about what you want. Do you need built-in seating? Space for a grill? Stairs that connect to a specific spot in your yard? We measure everything, check for any issues that might affect the build, and design a deck that works with your property instead of against it.

The Design Process

Here's how it works. After our initial visit, we create a detailed design that shows exactly what your deck will look like. You'll see the layout, the materials we'll use, and how it connects to your house. We go over everything with you and make changes until it's exactly what you want.

Once you approve the design, we handle all the permits and paperwork. Then we schedule the installation. Our crew shows up on time, builds your deck to code, and cleans up when we're done. The whole process is straightforward, and we keep you updated every step of the way.

Material Options That Fit Your Budget

Custom doesn't have to mean expensive. We work with different materials at different price points. You can choose from:

• Pressure-treated wood - The most affordable option that still gives you a solid, long-lasting deck
• Cedar or redwood - Natural beauty and resistance to rot, with a higher upfront cost but less maintenance
• Composite decking - Looks like wood but never needs staining or sealing, check out our composite deck installation service
• PVC decking - The most durable option that stands up to heavy use and extreme weather

We'll explain the pros and cons of each material so you can make the best choice for your budget and how you plan to use the deck.

Built for Odessa Weather

Odessa weather can be tough on outdoor structures. We design decks that handle the heat, wind, and occasional storms we get here. That means using the right fasteners, proper spacing for drainage, and materials that won't warp in high temperatures. We also know local building codes inside and out, so your deck will pass inspection the first time.

Whether you need railings and stairs for safety, or want to add a pergola for shade, we build everything to last in West Texas conditions.
