Create the Outdoor Living Space You Deserve with Apex Deck Builders of Austin, TX
Austin is a city where patios are gathering spaces and backyard decks double as music venues, yoga spots, or morning coffee zones. At Apex, we tailor decks to support your lifestyle, whether that means space for a smoker and patio bar, or quiet corners to enjoy a hill country breeze. We consider your entertainment style, family size, and even views, so the design becomes an extension of how you live, not just a structure.
Austin isn’t just where you live, it’s how you live. From backyard barbecues in South Austin to sunset views in Westlake, outdoor spaces matter here. At Apex Deck Builders, we craft decks that reflect your lifestyle, enhance your home, and stand up to the Central Texas elements.
Whether you want a ground-level cedar deck, a multi-tier composite system, or a full outdoor living space with shade and seating, we’re the local pros to bring it to life. Our designs are made for Austin’s heat, soil conditions, and community codes.
Austin’s building regulations vary by neighborhood, what works in Westlake may not fly in Travis Heights or East Austin. We’ve worked with zoning boards, HOAs, and permitting offices citywide. Whether you’re in a historic zone or a new development, we’ll ensure your deck complies with local requirements, property lines, and setback rules, no headaches, no delays.
We offer complete design-build services tailored to your goals:
No matter the size or scope, every project gets our full attention and craftsmanship.

For sloped or hillside lots, we use multi-level solutions that follow the terrain and maximize usable space.
