Floating Decks

A floating deck is a freestanding platform that is not attached to the house. That makes it useful where the house wall is not a good attachment point, where you want a retreat away from the house or where the patio door sits at an awkward height. It can be placed in the lawn, beside a garden or under a tree.

We build floating decks for homeowners in Nashville and across Middle Tennessee. We choose the location, prepare a stable base, frame the platform to stay level and add boards, benches, planters or a fire feature that suit the spot.

FAQ

Common questions about floating decks

Do floating decks need a permit?

It depends on the size and height and on local rules. We can help you check.

Can a floating deck hold a hot tub?

It can if the frame and footings are designed for the load. We plan for the weight.

Will it shift over time?

A well-built deck on a prepared base stays level. We choose supports for your soil.
