How We Build Attached & Detached Decks for Colorado Homes

At Evans Construction, we specialize in designing and constructing both attached and detached residential decks tailored to fit your home’s layout, aesthetic, and the Colorado terrain. Whether you're extending your living space or creating a freestanding retreat, our decks are built to enhance both function and style

Why Choose an Attached or Detached Deck for Your Colorado Home?

Adding a deck to your home — whether it’s anchored directly to your house (attached) or stands independently in your yard (detached) — provides more than just outdoor space. It transforms how you enjoy your home.

Attached Decks: Great for seamless indoor-outdoor flow, perfect for grilling, lounging, or entertaining right off your main living area.
Detached Decks: Ideal for sloped or expansive yards, offering flexible placement for garden retreats, poolside lounges, or meditation spaces.

Our Process: How We Build Attached and Detached Decks in Colorado

On-Site Consultation

We evaluate your home's structure or yard layout to recommend the best deck type for your space.

Design Planning

We help you decide between attached and detached options based on functionality, layout, and aesthetic goals.

Material Selection

Choose from pressure-treated wood, composite decking, redwood, and other materials built to endure Colorado weather.

Foundation & Framing

For detached decks, we ensure stable footing away from your home. Attached decks are securely integrated with your home’s frame.

Permits & Site Prep

We manage permits and ensure proper zoning compliance—especially important for detached structures.

Deck Construction

Our experienced team brings your design to life with a focus on safety, quality, and fine craftsmanship.

What’s the difference between an attached and a detached deck?

An attached deck is physically connected to your home, often extending from a main living area like a kitchen or living room. A detached deck, on the other hand, stands independently in your yard. It’s ideal for sloped terrain, backyard retreats, or areas where direct attachment to the house isn’t feasible.

Which type of deck is better for Colorado’s climate?

Both types can perform well in Colorado’s four-season climate if built correctly. Attached decks benefit from sheltered placement, while detached decks allow for more flexible sun and wind exposure. The right choice depends on your site layout and how you plan to use the space.

Do I need a permit to build an attached or detached deck in Colorado?

Yes, most cities and counties in Colorado require a permit for both attached and detached decks, especially if the deck is over 30 inches off the ground. We handle all permitting and code compliance for you to ensure a smooth, legal build.

Which type of deck adds more value to my home?

Attached decks typically offer a higher return on investment because they integrate directly with your home’s living space. However, detached decks can also increase property value, especially when designed as intentional outdoor retreats or entertaining zones.
