We come to your yard, measure the space, look at what the ground and your home's framing can support, and talk through your options. You will get a written estimate before anyone picks up a tool. No obligation, no pressure.
Once you approve the estimate and we pull the permit, the crew handles everything from footings to final cleanup. We keep you updated as we go, and the job is not done until the building inspector signs off and you are satisfied.
We carry general liability insurance and workers' compensation on every project. We pull permits through the City of Sidney and Shelby County Building Department, and we do not start work until the permit is approved.
Every estimate starts with a visit to your yard. We measure, look at the conditions, and give you a written quote before anything else. No sales pressure and no charge for the estimate.
We have been building decks and fences in Sidney and the surrounding communities since 2019. We know the local building codes, the soil conditions, and what Ohio winters do to an outdoor structure.
Your written estimate covers materials, labor, permit fees, and site prep. What you approve is what you pay. If something unexpected comes up, we talk to you first - we do not just add it to the invoice.
Have a question before you commit? Call (937) 658-9020 or send us a message.
"We had them build a composite deck off our back door, and they were done in about a week. The crew showed up when they said they would, the permit was already pulled before they started, and the finished deck is exactly what we talked about at the estimate. No surprises."
Mike T., Sidney - Composite deck installation
"Our old pressure-treated deck had a post that had been leaning for a couple winters. They came out, assessed the whole structure, and ended up replacing the footings and rebuilding the frame. Everything is rock solid now. Honest about what needed to be done and what did not."
Karen B., Troy - Deck repair and replacement
"We got a vinyl fence put in along the back of our property and around the side yard. They ran a straight line even on the uneven ground, every post is set deep, and the gate swings and latches the way it should. Exactly what we asked for."
Dave S., Piqua - Vinyl fence installation

Sidney's ground can freeze to 36 inches deep in a hard winter. Posts set too shallow get pushed upward and out of position with each cycle - making the deck unsafe over several seasons. The fix is simple: footings dug below the frost line from day one.
Pressure-treated wood costs less upfront but needs staining or sealing every two to three years. Composite costs more initially but requires almost no maintenance. For most Sidney homeowners, the total cost of ownership over 15 years is comparable - the difference is when you pay.
Yes - and skipping it is one of the most common regrets homeowners share when they go to sell. Ohio requires a permit for any deck attached to a home or elevated over 30 inches. The permit process means an inspector confirms the structure is safe. The North American Deck and Railing Association maintains resources on deck safety at nadra.org.
Clay soil expands when wet and shrinks when dry. That movement puts pressure on footings year after year. Contractors familiar with Shelby County's soil conditions factor this into footing size and placement - a step that is easy to skip and expensive to fix later.
If the frame and posts are solid, repairing rotted boards and adding fresh stain can add years of life. If the footings have shifted, the ledger is pulling away from the house, or rot has reached the framing, rebuilding is the smarter investment. A licensed contractor can tell you which situation you are in.
Real estate data consistently shows that outdoor living spaces are among the improvements buyers notice and pay for. In a market like Sidney - where single-family homes are the norm and outdoor space matters - a well-built deck makes a home more competitive. The key word is well-built: an unpermitted deck can hurt a sale.
The North American Deck and Railing Association (NADRA) publishes homeowner safety resources and contractor guidelines for deck construction across the US.

If your deck's posts and framing are structurally sound, replacing damaged boards and sealing the surface can extend its life significantly. If the footings have moved or the ledger is pulling away from the house, those are frame-level problems that point toward a full rebuild.
Ask directly. A legitimate contractor will pull the permit themselves before starting work and will schedule any required inspections. If a contractor suggests skipping the permit to save time or money, that is a clear warning sign - the permit protects you, not them.
In Ohio, the permit threshold is based on how the deck is attached and how high it sits, not its square footage. Almost any deck attached to your home or elevated more than 30 inches will require a permit regardless of size. Freestanding ground-level platforms may have different requirements.

Sidney Deck & Fence is based in Sidney, Ohio, the county seat of Shelby County and home to about 20,000 residents. Sidney sits in the Great Miami River valley in west-central Ohio - a community where most people have lived for years and take their properties seriously. A large share of the local housing stock was built before 1970, which means a lot of Sidney homeowners are working with older structures that benefit from contractors who understand how older homes were built.
Sidney has a recognizable downtown anchored by the Shelby County Courthouse, a landmark that sits at the center of a downtown square listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Sidney Theatre on the downtown square has been a gathering place for the community for decades. Homeowners in the older neighborhoods near downtown often have two-story wood-frame homes with original architectural details - and backyards that deserve an outdoor space to match.
From the streets near Tawawa Park to the ranch-style homes in the postwar neighborhoods on the west and south sides of the city, we have worked on homes all across Sidney. The clay-heavy soil, the freeze-thaw winters, and the older housing stock all shape how we build here - and they are all things we account for on every project.
