Commercial decks serve more than their designated purposes; they represent your company and property’s professionalism and safety. American Deck Builders, serving Chicago’s West and Northwest Suburbs, knows how to deliver reliable, high-performance solutions.
Businesses face unique demands when it comes to structural upgrades. Our commercial deck contractors address those needs directly, bringing clarity and craftsmanship to every commercial deck project.
Commercial Deck Construction
Commercial properties require durable deck systems with precise engineering and dependable materials. At American Deck Builders, we customize every build to meet functional requirements, code constraints, and architectural demands.
- Multi-Unit Structures Supported: Apartments, condos, and townhomes benefit from scalable deck framing systems for long-term performance and safety.
- Hospitality Projects Delivered: Hotels, restaurants, and country clubs receive decks optimized for traffic, dining zones, and ambiance without sacrificing build integrity.
- Municipal and Institutional Builds: Schools, government facilities, and public walkways demand code compliance and adaptability, which are core to our approach.
- Steel or Wood Framing Options: Our crews are ready for both, whether your property needs a traditional wood system or a fully integrated steel frame.
- Custom Balcony and Rooftop Decks: We design and build elevated platforms that meet load requirements and local guidelines for business-class projects.
- Repair or Full Replacement Work: Property managers can count on us for efficient replacements and detailed structural rehab jobs that don’t disrupt tenants.
Built with the Right Materials for Commercial Projects
The right material mix defines long-term value in commercial decks. Our team understands how to match product performance with each project’s scope, traffic volume, and exposure.
- Wood, Aluminum, Composite, or PVC: Each material option is available depending on code, use case, and your design goals; our crews install all types.
- Non-Slip and Low-Maintenance Choices: We source commercial-grade surfaces engineered for traction, weather resistance, and minimal upkeep.
- Railings, Stairways, and Edge Systems: Every safety element is selected first for function, blending access control with lasting durability.
- Color Options that Hold Up: UV-tested materials and fade-resistant finishes allow you to specify finishes without worrying about long-term discoloration.
- Fastening Systems that Stay Put: Commercial environments need hardware that resists movement, uplift, and traffic fatigue—our fastening methods are engineered for that.
Compliant with Commercial Code
Every commercial deck must satisfy specific local and national codes. We build to spec with zero shortcuts, preparing your project for smooth inspections and safe long-term use.
- ADA and Multi-Unit Access Standards: We build to accommodate access regulations for shared spaces, senior housing, and hospitality zones.
- Live Load and Structural Rating Codes: Decks are engineered with stamped plans and compliant framing layouts to meet occupancy expectations.
- Municipal Permits and Inspections: Our process includes handling required permits and coordinating inspections with your local building authority.
- Flame Spread and Material Ratings: Certain commercial zones require low-combustion or fire-retardant decking, and our materials meet those specs.
- HVAC, Drainage, and Utility Clearances: We align builds around rooftop units, stormwater flow, and building mechanicals to ensure no conflicts or service blockages.
Delivered with Professional Oversight
Commercial deck projects succeed through efficient planning, experienced crews, and predictable execution. We keep property owners and facility managers informed every step of the way.
- Pre-Construction Site Planning: We begin with a detailed walkthrough to coordinate access, material staging, and occupancy restrictions.
- Phased Work for Occupied Sites: Where tenants or guests remain onsite, our build phases limit disruption and ensure safe separation from active zones.
- Material Logistics and Scheduling: Every shipment and installation phase is timed to avoid delays, waste, or downtime.
- Jobsite Safety and Cleanliness Standards: Our crews maintain OSHA-aligned practices and leave no mess behind, which is especially critical in hospitality and residential settings.
- Point-of-Contact Project Management: You’ll work with a dedicated manager who coordinates crew timelines, city interface, and final inspections.
