Services We Offer

Services We Don't Offer

Are Drawings and Designs Free?

Developing accurate deck construction drawings requires time and structural expertise, so we are unable to offer detailed architectural plans for free. To start the design and drafting process, we require a project retainer typically between $1,500 and $3,000, depending on the scope of work.

This is not an extra fee. The entire retainer is applied directly to your final project cost. Most importantly, the drawings are yours to keep. Unlike most design and build firms that use designs to trap homeowners into a contract, we ensure you have full ownership of the plans we create for you.

Designing for Hoover's Terrain

Hoover isn’t flat. That is why “cookie-cutter” deck plans rarely work here. We understand the specific challenges of our local neighborhoods:

Bluff Park

We design structural solutions for steep drops and rocky soil, ensuring your deck is safe and level.

The Preserve

We create designs that blend seamlessly with specific architectural styles to satisfy strict HOA guidelines.

Riverchase

We plan layouts that work around existing mature trees and slopes to preserve the natural beauty of your lot.

From Napkin Sketch to Reality

Our design process is straightforward and focused on your needs.

Common Questions for a Deck Designer

Do you provide 3D renderings of the deck design?

We focus on professional 2D construction drawings. These detailed plans provide the exact footprint, framing, and layout required for city permits and HOA approvals. They give you a clear, to-scale view of the project without the added cost of 3D modeling.

Do I need a professional design to get a permit?

Yes. The City of Hoover requires detailed construction drawings to issue a building permit. These drawings must show footing sizes, joist spacing, and attachment details. We handle all of this technical drafting for you.

Can you help with HOA approval?

Absolutely. Most HOAs in Hoover require a specific set of drawings and material samples before they approve a project. We provide the detailed plans you need to submit to your Architectural Review Committee (ARC).

How much does a custom deck design cost?

We typically include the cost of the basic design and construction drawings in our project estimate. For highly complex projects requiring extensive 3D modeling or multiple revisions without a construction contract, a design fee may apply, which is often credited toward the build.
