Deck Services
Nashville backyards come in all shapes and sizes, from tight urban lots in Sylvan Park to larger properties in the outer neighborhoods. Milliken Builders builds custom decks throughout Nashville designed to fit the space, the home, and how you actually plan to use it.
We work with pressure-treated wood, cedar, composite decking, and Trex. Nashville’s humidity and temperature swings mean material selection matters, we’ll walk you through the real tradeoffs between wood and composite so you can make an informed decision before we start.
Our Nashville deck projects range from simple ground-level platforms to multi-level structures with built-in seating, cable railing, pergola covers, and stair access to the yard. We handle permits, demo of old decks, and full construction from footings to finish.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What's the difference between composite and wood decking?
Wood decking (pressure-treated or cedar) is typically less expensive upfront but requires regular sealing and maintenance. Composite decking like Trex costs more initially but requires almost no maintenance and holds up better over time. We can help you weigh the tradeoff during your estimate.
Do I need a permit to build a deck in Tennessee?
Most decks over a certain height or square footage require a permit. Milliken Builders handles the permit application as part of every deck project, we make sure everything is built to code.
How long does deck installation take?
A standard single-level deck typically takes 1–2 weeks. Larger or more complex multi-level decks may take 2–4 weeks. We’ll give you a specific timeline as part of your estimate.
Can you remove and replace an existing deck?
Yes. We handle full deck demolition and haul-away before building the new structure. Many of our customers come to us specifically to replace an old, unsafe, or outdated deck.
How much does a deck cost in Middle Tennessee?
Deck costs depend on size, material, and complexity. Most projects in our area range from $15,000 to $45,000+. Composite materials run higher than wood. We’ll give you an honest itemized estimate during your complimentary consultation.
