Deck Building in Heath, Ohio

Heath sits immediately east of Newark along Route 79. The June 29, 2012 derecho hit Heath hard — we saw a significant number of decks fail or sustain serious damage from that storm, and it's a reminder that deck structures in this area need to be built to hold up under high wind loads, not just look good on a clear day. and shares similar housing stock — ranch homes, split-levels, and a growing number of newer builds near the commercial corridor. We build throughout Heath and see a wide range of project types, from first decks on properties that have never had one to replacements on structures that are overdue. Permits in Heath go through the City of Heath Building Department. We handle the application on every project.

Heath homeowners often have properties where the rear of the house backs up to established yards with mature trees. We see a lot of projects where shade is a real consideration — which factors into material choice, since composite holds up better under tree debris and moisture than wood.

On split-level homes in Heath we often end up doing two-level builds — a main deck off the living level and a lower landing or patio connection. Getting the stairs and transitions right between those levels is something we've done enough of to do well.
