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.

Why Colorado Homes Benefit from Attached and Detached Decks

Colorado Springs homes experience all four seasons, so functional outdoor space requires careful planning. Attached decks offer seamless transitions between indoor and outdoor areas—perfect for quick access and added resale value. Meanwhile, detached decks allow homeowners to embrace Colorado’s scenic views and mountain landscapes with quiet, stand-alone structures ideal for relaxation. Whether you live near Palmer Park, the Broadmoor, or in Black Forest, Evans Construction builds decks that work with your space, lifestyle, and climate.

FAQs About Attached and Detached Decks in Colorado Springs

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.

Can I convert my detached deck into an attached one later?

Yes, in some cases. Converting a detached deck into an attached structure may require additional framing, permitting, and modifications to your home’s exterior.

Are attached or detached decks better for resale value in Colorado?

Attached decks usually offer a higher ROI due to their integration with indoor living. However, well-designed detached decks can still significantly enhance a property’s value and appeal.
