A deck builder who knows the Busse Woods side of town
Elk Grove Village grew up as a planned community back in 1956, so a lot of homes here sit on flat, tidy lots with mature trees. Plenty of them back up toward Busse Woods or the quiet streets off Arlington Heights Road and Biesterfield. We've built decks on yards like these all over the northwest suburbs, so the lot sizes and grades feel familiar.
Knowing the area saves you time and money. We can look at your yard, your home's height, and how the sun hits it, then design a deck that fits the way you actually live. No guesswork, and no cookie-cutter plan dropped on your lot.
Built to hold up next to O’Hare and a hard Chicago winter
Elk Grove Village sits right on the western edge of O'Hare and the huge business park around it, so wind and weather get a clear run at your yard. On top of that, our winters freeze the ground hard, then thaw it, which can heave a deck built on shallow footings.
We set our footings below the local frost line so your deck stays level for years. We use solid joist spacing and quality fasteners too, so the surface stays flat and quiet underfoot. Twenty years of building in this climate means we know what it throws at a deck.
Composite, cedar, and custom decks for any Elk Grove yard
You're never boxed into one material with us. Want low upkeep? We install composite and Trex decks that resist fading and rot. Love the look of natural wood? We build cedar and pressure-treated decks too. Many shops only do composite, which limits your choices and your budget.
Got a sloped or oversized yard? We build multi-level and custom decks that work with the grade instead of fighting it. Tell us how you want to use the space, and we'll walk through options at your free estimate.
Elk Grove Village deck permit requirements
These are Elk Grove Village's own published requirements, not general advice. We pull the permit and handle the inspections as part of every job, but it is your deck and you should know what is actually being asked for.
Our deck permit guide explains how the process works across DuPage County and northwest Cook.
- Issued by
- Community Development Department Municipal Complex, 901 Wellington Avenue, Elk Grove Village, IL 60007 (847) 357-4220
- Permit required
- Yes. Decks are on the Village list of projects requiring a permit.
- How to apply
- Online, or at the Community Development counter at the Municipal Complex
Villages across DuPage County and northwest Cook generally set deck footing depth at 42 inches to clear the frost line. Where a village has not published its own figure we do not guess at it, we confirm the requirement with the building department before we dig.
If you are in an HOA
If your subdivision has a homeowners association, its architectural review is separate from the village permit and neither one substitutes for the other. Associations commonly have their own rules on deck size, color, railing style and screening, and approval can take longer than the permit does. Start that application at the same time, not after.
Source: Elk Grove Village Permits , read August 2026. Codes and fees change. We confirm the current requirements with the village before we dig, and you should treat this as a starting point rather than the final word.

We first contacted Ryan back in April. But we decided to replace the concrete patio first, which was delayed a couple of times. Ryan was very patient with us as he was also delayed, finally completing the project the middle of July. We could not be happier the the quality craftsmanship that went into our deck. If you want your deck done right, you will go w…Read the full review
