If your “temporary” patio set has survived two Foxfield windstorms and a summer of Parker Road dust, it’s time. Colorado Elite Outdoor Contractors designs and builds decks that fit Foxfield living—room for family, friends, and maybe a few four-legged neighbors—plus the strength to handle March snow and July sun.
Engineered for local code + climate. We size framing and footings to Arapahoe County design criteria—36″ minimum frost depth, wind and snow per county/ASCE guidance—so your deck rides out freeze–thaw without heaving. (March is historically the Front Range’s snowiest month, so we build for it.)
Permit pros. Foxfield projects typically permit through Arapahoe County Building Division (with Town/HOA rules also applying). We assemble your plans, submit online, and manage inspections—no portal headaches.
HOA/ACC savvy. Many Foxfield properties follow Community Association guidelines for exterior work. We package rail profiles, colors, and elevations to keep approvals smooth.
Ranch-friendly design. Bigger lots and wide views mean thoughtful sightlines. We’ll keep the Front Range sunsets in frame and the yard functional—trucks, trailers, and tack included.
Weather-smart materials. With high sun exposure and occasional whopper snow events, we help you choose composite/PVC or premium wood that resists UV fade, moisture, and freeze–thaw.
Custom deck design & installation – single or multi-level, walkouts, under-deck drainage
Composite & PVC decks – low-maintenance options that shrug off sun and slush
Premium wood decks – kiln-dried framing, hidden fasteners, durable finishes
Railings & lighting – code-compliant profiles, step lights, post caps
Stairs, landings & gates – safe, winter-friendly treads
Pergolas & shade – because July dinners on full-sun decking aren’t a sport we recommend
Space to spread out. Many homes here sit on larger lots—hello, entertaining space. We design traffic flows for grills, patio heaters, and the “kids vs. cornhole champs” zone.
Keep the views. Low-profile rails and “view windows” preserve those Front Range sunsets and open-space vibes near Cherry Creek State Park and the High Line Canal corridor—without the fishbowl feel.
Right-sized privacy. Along Arapahoe Rd or Parker Rd (CO-83)? We mix privacy panels with airflow so wind doesn’t turn your deck into a kite.
Event-ready timing. Tell us your calendar (graduations, barn parties, late-summer BBQs). We’ll plan permitting and inspections so your first big gathering lands on schedule.
On-site consult & design – Measure, confirm setbacks/easements, and sketch options you can picture.
Permits & ACC support – We prepare drawings/specs, submit to Arapahoe County, and package HOA/Association materials as needed.
Engineering & code check – Footings, spans, connectors, and frost/snow criteria are locked before we dig.
Build & inspections – Courteous crew, tidy site, pass inspections.
Care plan – Cleaning/maintenance tips for Foxfield’s sun-and-snow rhythm.
Real talk: We’re not the cheapest. We are the crew whose decks still look great after a March storm and a summer of park days at Cherry Creek.
Multi-level for gentle slopes – Create separate zones without big retaining walls.
Snow-smart details – Proper board gapping, slight surface pitch, and ice-savvy stair layouts—because March likes to show off.
Under-deck dry systems – Turn the patio below into real, usable space (shade for people, stash for gear).
Natural palettes – Colors that pair with prairie grasses and barn tones—and make HOA approvals easier.
