Custom outdoor living solutions engineered for the Treasure Valley’s four-season climate.
There’s something timeless about a natural wood deck. In Star, Idaho, we build custom wood decks using pressure-treated lumber and premium species like cedar that are rated for our unique four-season climate. Every wood deck we construct in the Treasure Valley features footings poured below the 24-30 inch frost line — a non-negotiable requirement in Star’s freeze-thaw environment.
Star homeowners in subdivisions like Valor, Moon Valley Estates, and Canopi Estates love the warmth and character of real wood. We carefully select lumber that’s been treated for Idaho’s specific conditions — our arid summers and intense UV exposure mean standard materials dry out and crack faster here than in more humid climates. We source wood that performs in these conditions and apply premium sealants to extend the life of every board.
Whether you’re adding a ground-level deck off your kitchen or building a raised platform to capture Boise Foothills views, our custom wood deck designs are tailored to your Star home’s architecture, your lot’s terrain, and your family’s outdoor living needs. We handle everything from City of Star building permits to final inspections.
$4,000 – $12,000Composite decking has become the most popular choice among Star, Idaho homeowners — and for good reason. Brands like Trex, TimberTech, and Fiberon offer the beauty of real wood without the constant maintenance that Idaho’s climate demands. In Star’s UV-intense summers and freeze-thaw winters, composite materials resist fading, cracking, splitting, and moisture damage far better than natural wood.
We install composite decks throughout Star and the Treasure Valley using premium product lines that carry 25-50 year manufacturer warranties. The initial investment is higher than wood, but Star homeowners save significantly over time by eliminating annual staining, sealing, and board replacement. With 200+ days of sunshine in the Treasure Valley, you’ll spend your time on your deck rather than maintaining it.
Our composite deck installations in Star include proper ventilation spacing for Idaho’s temperature swings, hidden fastener systems for a clean appearance, and color-matched accessories. We help you choose from dozens of color and grain options to complement your home in Valor, Moon Valley, or wherever you live in the Star area.
$8,000 – $25,000Star’s terrain — from flat former farmland to gentle slopes near the Boise Foothills — makes multi-level deck design both practical and stunning. A multi-level deck creates distinct outdoor zones: an upper level for grilling and dining, a lower level for lounging and conversation, and transitional stairs that double as additional seating during gatherings.
In Star’s newer subdivisions, many homes are built on graded lots that leave the backyard with uneven terrain. Rather than expensive regrading, a multi-level deck works with your property’s natural contours. We engineer each level with independent footing systems that extend below the frost line, ensuring stability through Idaho’s harsh winters and spring thaw cycles.
Multi-level decks are especially popular among Star homeowners in neighborhoods like Valor and Moon Valley Commons, where larger lots and Ada County’s building codes allow for more ambitious outdoor living projects. These designs also maximize views of the Boise Foothills and surrounding Treasure Valley landscape.
$12,000 – $35,000Idaho’s Treasure Valley delivers intense summer sunshine — Star averages temperatures above 90°F through July and August. A covered deck or pergola structure extends your outdoor season by providing shade during peak heat and shelter during afternoon rain showers. In Star, these structures are among our most requested upgrades.
We design covered deck structures that complement your home’s existing architecture, from modern clean lines to traditional Idaho ranch style. Our pergola designs allow filtered sunlight while reducing direct UV exposure — protecting both you and your deck surface. For Star homeowners who want maximum protection, we build fully covered structures with options for ceiling fans, lighting, and even outdoor heaters to extend your deck season into Star’s crisp fall evenings.
All covered structures in Star must meet local building codes for wind load and snow load requirements. Ada County’s code requirements ensure your pergola or cover handles Idaho’s occasional heavy snowfall. We engineer every structure to exceed these minimums, giving you a covered outdoor space that performs safely through every Treasure Valley season.
$6,000 – $20,000Star’s four-season climate takes a toll on outdoor structures. Freeze-thaw cycles crack and heave footings, UV exposure fades and dries out wood surfaces, and Idaho’s occasional heavy snow loads stress joists and beams. If your Star deck is showing its age, repair and restoration is often a smarter investment than full replacement.
Our deck repair services in Star and throughout the Treasure Valley include board replacement, joist repair and sistering, railing upgrades, re-staining and sealing, post leveling, and footing repair. We assess your deck’s structural integrity first — if the frame is sound, we can transform its appearance and safety at a fraction of the cost of a new build.
Many homes built during Star’s rapid growth boom (2015-2024) have builder-grade decks that are already showing wear. The materials used by production builders often aren’t rated for Idaho’s demanding conditions. We upgrade these structures with proper materials and techniques that extend the deck’s life by years, giving Star homeowners in Valor, Moon Valley, and other newer communities a deck worth using.
$500 – $5,000Convert your Star deck into a versatile three-season or four-season room with a screened-in porch or enclosure. Idaho’s Treasure Valley brings mosquitoes along the Boise River corridor, wasps in late summer, and — increasingly — wildfire smoke during August and September. A screen porch lets you enjoy the fresh air and outdoor ambiance while keeping pests and poor air quality at bay.
Our screen porch designs for Star homeowners range from simple screen panel systems that attach to your existing deck structure to fully enclosed rooms with storm windows that extend your usable outdoor season through Star’s cooler months. We use heavy-duty aluminum framing and fiberglass screening rated for Idaho’s UV exposure, ensuring your enclosure maintains its appearance for years.
Screen porches are becoming especially popular in Star’s newer communities like Canopi Estates, where homeowners want to maximize their outdoor living space year-round. Combined with a composite deck surface and covered roof structure, a screened-in porch creates the ultimate outdoor room — protected from the elements, free of insects, and perfectly suited to the Treasure Valley lifestyle.
