Lone Tree, CO · Family-owned
Custom decks built for Lone Tree — clay soil, strong mountain sun, heavy snow, and your HOA. Built by Jon & Janessa Lang.
Built for Lone Tree
We've built from the gated streets of Heritage Hills to the modern blocks of RidgeGate — and the ground up here doesn't forgive shortcuts. Lone Tree sits at about 6,000 feet, on clay that swells up when it gets wet, under strong mountain sun and some of the worst hail in the country.
Decks fail here in the same three ways: the clay pushes the posts up and pulls the deck off the house, the sun fades and cracks cheap boards in two summers, and tall railings block the view you moved up here for. We build so yours doesn't do any of those.
“After researching several local companies, they were the clear winner. The quality far exceeded the cost — craftsmanship in every square inch.”
Dale Maxey · Custom deckBuilt for Lone Tree conditions
Most deck failures here trace back to the soil, the sun, or a skipped permit. We build for all three.
The clay under Lone Tree swells up when it gets wet. That's what pushes a deck up and pulls it off the house. We dig the posts down deep to solid ground, so a wet spring can't lift it.
We size the frame for Lone Tree snow, and for the way it freezes cold at night and thaws by day at 6,000 feet. That back-and-forth slowly loosens the screws on a deck built for warmer places.
Lone Tree sits in Hail Alley, and hail hits harder up at altitude. We use tougher boards and build covered decks for folks tired of fixing hail damage.
Lone Tree runs its own city building office (720-390-5211), not Douglas County, so your deck permit comes from the city. Your HOA — like the strict Design Review Committee in gated Heritage Hills — has to say yes first. We handle both.
“The inspector was impressed by their system and mentioned this deck is built to withstand a hurricane.”

After a few hundred Front Range builds, the requests from this city are predictable in the best way. Odds are yours is on this list — and we've already solved it.
Heritage Hills and much of Lone Tree are full of walkout lots, where the main floor sits a full story above the backyard. We build decks that step down, level by level, to the yard — not one tall deck you need a long flight of stairs to get off of.
On the ridge-top lots in Heritage Hills and Carriage Club, the whole reason you bought the house is the view — Longs Peak to Pikes Peak and the downtown Denver skyline. We use thin cable or glass railing so the railing almost disappears.
Lots of homes back the Bluffs Regional Park, the Lone Tree golf course, or open space. We build the deck and railing to keep those big views open and to fit what your HOA allows on a see-through lot.
If you've had to replace a roof or a deck board after a Lone Tree storm, you're not alone. We build covered decks and pergolas, and use tougher boards, so the next big hail doesn't start it all over.
In gated Heritage Hills, nothing gets built until the Design Review Committee approves the plans, materials and colors — and the HOA has to say yes before the city will permit. We've done that paperwork before and handle it for you.
RidgeGate is the big modern master-planned area, and review there runs through the city and the metro districts. We build clean, modern decks that fit those rules and the architecture out there.
