Looking for Bloomington deck builders who can help you create a better outdoor space? UglyDeck works with Minnesota homeowners on new deck construction, low-maintenance deck facelifts and railing upgrades. Whether you’re replacing an aging deck or starting with a fresh design, our team can help you compare layouts, materials and installation options.
We pay attention to the details that make a deck look finished and feel solid: sound framing, properly supported borders and railings, clean transitions and thoughtfully chosen materials. From compact decks to larger entertaining spaces, the goal is a practical design that fits your home and budget.
Our professional deck installation service helps you plan a deck around how you actually use your yard. We discuss the footprint, access, stairs, railing and decking choices before construction begins. A thoughtful plan matters in Minnesota, where seasonal weather and long-term durability make solid framing and proper connections especially important.
Not every older deck needs to be completely rebuilt. If the existing structure is in suitable condition, a deck facelift may allow you to replace worn boards, update the railing and give the space a fresh look. The first step is evaluating the framing and connections to determine whether reusing the structure is appropriate. We can help you weigh a facelift against a full replacement.
Prefer to build it yourself? UglyDeck also supports DIY homeowners with decking and railing materials, planning resources and coaching. Our deck materials estimator can help you explore a project before you request a quote. If you’d rather have professionals handle the framing or another stage of the job, ask about your options.
See your options in person. Bloomington homeowners can visit UglyDeck’s Shakopee showroom to compare decking colors, textures and railing styles. Learn more about our deck installation services, or start a conversation about your project.
Wondering what a deck facelift could do for your backyard? Browse our Before & After deck galleries to see real projects, decking colors, railing combinations and design ideas. These examples can help you plan a new deck or refresh an existing outdoor space.
The price of a deck depends on its size, height, stairs, railing, site conditions and material choices. A simple layout or a facelift on a structurally sound existing frame may cost less than a more complex new build, but every project deserves an individual assessment.
Use our deck materials estimator to explore options, then tell us about your Bloomington project for guidance on installation, materials and next steps. We can walk you through Good-Better-Best choices without pushing features you don’t need.
Bloomington homeowners have plenty of decking and railing choices. We offer composite and PVC decking from leading manufacturers, along with durable aluminum railing options. These materials are designed to reduce the routine staining, sealing and painting associated with traditional wood decks, while offering a wide range of colors and finishes.

Permit review times depend on the project, the completeness of the application and the City of Bloomington’s workload. For decks professionally installed by UglyDeck, our team can guide the permit process. For DIY projects, UglyDeck can provide permit-ready drawings, while the homeowner is responsible for submitting the application and obtaining the required approvals. Confirm the current requirements with the City of Bloomington before starting construction.
Start with how you want to use your outdoor space, the deck’s size and height, stair placement, privacy, and the condition of any existing framing. In Bloomington, Minnesota’s freeze-thaw cycles, moisture and snow also make drainage, durable materials and sound structural connections important. A thoughtful design can make even a smaller deck more useful without adding unnecessary complexity.
Composite decking can often be installed in colder weather, but scheduling depends on safe site access, snow and ice, footing conditions and the manufacturer’s temperature-related installation instructions. Our team can help Bloomington homeowners evaluate whether winter construction makes sense for their specific project.
Footing depth and design depend on local frost-protection requirements, soil conditions, deck configuration and the approved plans. Before digging, check the applicable requirements with the City of Bloomington’s building department and follow the approved design. Properly designed footings help the deck perform through Minnesota’s seasonal temperature changes.
Bloomington deck costs vary with size, height, stairs, railing, framing and decking choices. A straightforward design or a facelift on a suitable existing frame may offer a different cost profile than a fully new or multi-level deck. Try our deck materials estimator for a starting point, then request a project-specific quote.
Yes. UglyDeck’s DIY deck program helps homeowners handle as much—or as little—of their project as they choose. We can supply decking and railing materials, provide planning resources and coaching, or help with specific stages such as footings, ledger installation or framing. Ask our team which approach fits your Bloomington project.
