Custom Deck Design & Installation
Transform your backyard into the outdoor living space you have always dreamed of with a custom-designed deck built specifically for your home and lifestyle.
Your Vision, Our Expertise
Your outdoor space should be more than just a deck. It should be an extension of your home where you create memories, entertain friends, and relax after a long day. At GTL Casas Adobes Deck Builder, we specialize in creating custom deck designs that match your unique vision and complement your home's architecture.
Every property in Casas Adobes is different, and every homeowner has their own ideas about what makes the perfect outdoor living space. That is why we start every project with a consultation to understand what you want. Whether you are looking for a simple platform deck for quiet mornings or a multi-level entertainment space with built-in seating and lighting, we design and build it to fit your lifestyle.
Our team brings years of experience working with Arizona's climate and terrain. We know what materials hold up best in the desert heat, which designs provide the most shade, and how to maximize your usable outdoor space. From the first sketch to the final inspection, we handle every detail so you can focus on enjoying your new deck.
How Our Design Process Works
We believe that good design comes from listening to what you need and combining that with our expertise. When you choose us for your custom deck installation, here is what you can expect:
First, we visit your property to see the space and understand the layout. We talk about how you plan to use your deck, what features matter most to you, and any challenges your yard might present. This could be slope, drainage, existing landscaping, or views you want to preserve. We take measurements and photos so we can create an accurate design.
Next, we create a custom design plan that includes layout options, material recommendations, and a detailed quote. We show you exactly what your deck will look like and explain why we recommend certain materials or construction methods. If you want changes, we revise the design until it is exactly what you want.
Once you approve the design, we handle all the permits and preparation work. Then our skilled crew begins construction, keeping you informed every step of the way. We maintain a clean work site and minimize disruption to your daily routine. When the project is complete, we walk you through the finished deck and provide maintenance tips to keep it looking great for years.
Popular Design Options We Offer
Your custom deck can include any combination of features to match your needs and budget. Here are some popular options our Casas Adobes customers love:

Choosing the Right Materials
Material selection is one of the most important decisions in your custom deck project. The right choice depends on your budget, maintenance preferences, and aesthetic goals. We work with both traditional wood deck materials and modern composite deck options, and we help you understand the pros and cons of each.
Wood decks offer natural beauty and can be stained or painted to match any color scheme. Popular wood choices include pressure-treated pine for budget-friendly projects, cedar for its natural resistance to insects and decay, and exotic hardwoods for premium durability and stunning grain patterns. Wood requires regular maintenance like staining and sealing, but many homeowners love the classic look and feel.
Composite decking provides the look of wood without the maintenance. Made from recycled wood fibers and plastic, composite boards resist fading, staining, scratching, and mold. They never need staining or sealing, just occasional cleaning with soap and water. Composite costs more upfront but saves money over time on maintenance. It also comes in a wide range of colors and textures that mimic natural wood grain.
We help you compare options based on your specific situation. For example, if your deck will be in full sun all day, we might recommend composite materials with UV protection. If you want a natural look and do not mind seasonal maintenance, quality wood could be perfect. Our goal is to match you with materials that fit your lifestyle and deliver the performance you expect.
