From low-maintenance composite decking to fully integrated outdoor living spaces — we build decks that are structurally sound, thoughtfully designed, and built to perform in every Illinois season.
The real question is how they hold up over time — and whether you actually use the space the way you thought you would. That's where the difference is.
At Ace of Decks, we focus on building decks that are structurally sound and thoughtfully designed around your home, your layout, and how you want to use the space day to day. Everything starts with getting the structure and materials right — because a beautiful deck built on the wrong foundation won't last.
Most builders frame with wood that deteriorates within a decade. We use Fortress Evolution steel — the same material used in commercial construction. It's the biggest structural difference between an Ace of Decks build and everything else.
We're a TimberTech certified installer and have chosen to work exclusively with their products — because they perform better in Midwest conditions than anything else on the market. No compromises.
Composite decking gives you the natural look of wood without the constant maintenance — no staining, no sealing, no warping. A great fit for homeowners who want lasting beauty with lower upkeep.
PVC decking is fully synthetic — no wood fiber content. That means better moisture resistance, less expansion and contraction in Illinois winters, and a longer lifespan. The premium choice for high-performance builds.
We don't build from templates. Every project is designed specifically around your home, your yard, and how you plan to use the space.
Break up your space into defined zones for dining, lounging, and entertaining. Multi-level layouts are one of the best ways to make a large space feel intentional and easy to use.

Elevated decks open up a lot of possibilities — but require precise structural planning. We handle every detail including under-deck waterproofing so the space below becomes usable too.

Curves, picture-frame borders, deck inlays, integrated seating, and built-in planters. Custom features are what make a deck feel designed — not just built. This is where craftsmanship shows.

Clean, low-maintenance, and incredibly durable. Our most popular choice — the sleek profile keeps sightlines open while delivering structural integrity that lasts decades.
Horizontal stainless steel cables create a modern, minimalist look with near-invisible profiles. Ideal for properties with views worth preserving.
Frameless glass panels deliver an upscale, resort-like aesthetic. Privacy panels define spaces and reduce wind exposure without closing off the outdoor feel.
Most builds evolve into complete outdoor living environments — pergolas, retractable screens, lighting, outdoor kitchens. We approach every project as part of a bigger system, not separate pieces.
