The Deck Commander Difference
At Deck Commander, we believe that outdoor living should be a direct extension of your home’s character and quality. Founded in Waukesha, Wisconsin, our journey began with a simple objective: to provide structural integrity that stands up to the harsh Midwest seasons while delivering unmatched aesthetic beauty.
We don’t just build decks; we engineer outdoor environments. From the initial soil assessment to the final grain of stain, every decision is made with military-grade precision. This “Command” mentality ensures that your investment is safe, durable, and breathtaking.
Deck Commander and its employees combine both the latest and greatest building trends and materials with decades of experience in the decking and fencing industries. We at deck commander take great pride in insuring that every homeowners investment is built to last. All deck commander employees have attended extensive training at Timbertech’s Azek university in addition to onsite training to ensure all deck commander decks follow strict installation guidelines set by owner and lead carpenter Mike Olson.
