Professional Deck Footing & Ledger Installation for DIY Homeowners

Want to build your own deck but make sure the foundation is done right? UglyDeck can handle two of the most critical starting points: the footings and ledger connection.

Our crews professionally install the foundation your deck needs, giving you a solid, code-compliant starting point before you take over the rest of the build.

You get the confidence of a professional start while keeping more of the savings of DIY.

Installation services are available with qualifying UglyDeck material packages.

Start With
Solid Deck Footings

UglyDeck primarily uses helical footings because of their strength, reliability and minimal disruption to the surrounding yard.

Depending on site access, proximity to the home’s foundation and other project conditions, we may instead use concrete footings or Diamond Pier footings.

Our team determines the right footing system for your project and installs it professionally—giving you a solid, code-compliant starting point for the rest of your DIY build.

Deck Ledger

The ledger is one of the most critical connections in an attached deck. It secures the deck to your home and must be properly fastened and flashed to prevent movement, water intrusion and long-term structural problems.

UglyDeck can professionally install your deck ledger before you take over the rest of your DIY build. Our crews handle the mounting, structural attachment and waterproof flashing so this critical connection is done correctly.

You get a secure, code-compliant starting point—and one less intimidating part of the project to tackle yourself.

Start Off on the Right Foot(ing)!
