Get a free estimate for your home.
Itasca sits just east of Roselle, where our shop is. So when you hire us, you get a deck builder from the next town over. Short drives, fast estimates, and a crew that already knows this stretch of DuPage County between Irving Park Road and the Hamilton Lakes business park.
For over 20 years, our family has built decks across Itasca and the nearby suburbs like Wood Dale, Medinah, and Addison. We run our own crews, pull every permit, and back the work with a written workmanship warranty. No subcontractors, and no run-around.
Because Itasca borders our home town, getting out to you is easy. We can swing by for a free estimate without the long haul that out-of-town crews face. On a big project like a deck, that close access really pays off.
A Roselle crew right across the village line
Most deck companies in Itasca drive in from far away. We don't. Our shop is one town west in Roselle, just past Rohlwing Road, so we're practically neighbors. We know the homes near the village center, the newer streets out by Nordic Hills, and what holds up in this climate.
Being this close means we answer the phone and show up when we say we will. If you have a question mid-build, we're minutes away, not an hour out on Irving Park Road. That kind of access is hard to find with a deck builder.
Decks that fit older village homes and newer Itasca builds
Itasca has a wide mix of homes. There are older houses on the tree-lined streets near Usher Park and the downtown Metra station, plus newer two-stories out toward Hamilton Lakes with deeper, sloped yards. Each one calls for a slightly different deck. We design around your home's height, your lot, and how you want to use the space.
We build the full range, so you're never boxed into one material. Want low upkeep? We install composite and Trex decks that resist fading and warping. Love natural wood? We build cedar and wood decks too. Many shops only do composite, which limits both your choices and your budget.
Built to handle DuPage freeze-thaw winters
Winters here are hard on decks. The ground freezes, thaws, and shifts, and a deck on shallow footings will heave and crack. We set our footings below the local frost line so your deck stays level for years, near Springbrook Nature Center or out past the tollway.
We also use proper joist spacing and quality fasteners so the surface stays flat and quiet underfoot. Two decades of building right next to Itasca means we know exactly what this weather does to a deck. We build full deck replacements and re-decking too, and we add matching or contrasting deck railings to finish the job. See it all on our deck services page, or just call and we'll talk through your yard.
Itasca deck permit requirements
These are Itasca'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, Building Division (630) 773-5568
- Permit required
- Yes
- Typical processing
- Most building permits process in 5 to 10 business days, but the Village asks you to allow a minimum of 3 weeks for plan review and permitting
- Contractor registration
- Itasca publishes contractor registration requirements that must be met before a permit issues
Worth knowing before you design
- Itasca publishes deck guidelines in its online Document Center. Ask for them, because they set out what the Building Division wants on the drawings.
- The 3 week guidance matters for scheduling. If you want a deck for early summer in Itasca, the paperwork needs to start well before spring.
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: Village of Itasca Building Division , 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 had composite decking on the floor of our deck, finally decided it was time to do the railings and steps. Ryan came out not only to size up the job for pricing, but also with material samples for railing options. We chose an option we weren't even aware of and went with the Trex Select aluminum railing. We had several companies come out for estimate…Read the full review

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
