Build Your Own Deck.
Save Thousands.

With professional planning, materials, and an UglyDeck Coach along the way.

DIY Doesn't Mean Do It All Yourself.

You can save thousands by doing some—or all—of the work yourself. With UglyDeck, you decide where we stop and you start.

We can help plan your project, assemble your complete material package, install your footings and ledger, or even professionally frame your deck. Then you take it from there with our DIY Academy and expert support available along the way.

You choose how much you want to DIY.

The Hardest Part of a DIY Deck May Happen Before You Build Anything.

Buying deck boards is easy. Figuring out everything you actually need to build the deck is another story.

Your UglyDeck DIY Coach works with you to understand your project and build a complete material package—from framing lumber, decking and railing to stairs, fasteners, connectors and the smaller components that are easy to overlook.

Online calculators and big-box estimating tools can give you a list of materials. UglyDeck gives you a deck professional who gets to know your project.

Because your coach is involved in building your package, we understand how your deck is supposed to go together before the materials ever arrive. And that matters after the sale. When you’re building and have a question, you’re not starting over with someone who has never seen your project—you have an UglyDeck team that already knows it.

We don’t just know decks. We know your deck.

Complete UglyDeck DIY deck material package delivered to a homeowner

Choose Where We Stop. You Take It From There.

Start with an UglyDeck material package, then decide how much of the structural work you want us to handle.

Our professional crews can install your footings, add the ledger, or take it through complete deck framing. Then you take over—installing the decking, railing and finishing touches yourself.

It’s professional help where you need it, while keeping more of the savings of DIY.

DIY Assist installation services are available with qualifying UglyDeck material packages.

We Frame It. You Finish It.

Want the savings of DIY without tackling the most intimidating part of the build? Let UglyDeck handle the structure.

Our professional crews can install your footings and ledger and frame the deck for you. Once the structure is ready, you take over—installing the decking, railing and finishing touches yourself.

It’s a great middle ground between a complete professional installation and doing everything yourself.

We handle the frame. You handle the finish. You keep more of the savings.

A partially constructed wooden deck is attached to a house, with exposed beams and stairs but no flooring yet. The structure sits on a grassy lawn beside green siding and a flowering bush.

You’re Building It. But You’re Not Building It Alone.

Once your materials arrive, your UglyDeck DIY Coach is still with you. Use the UglyDeck DIY Academy for step-by-step instructions, photos and videos—and when something on your project doesn’t make sense, just ask. Because we helped plan your deck and build your material package, we already understand what you’re building. You’re not explaining your project from scratch every time you need help.

DIY Savings.
Professional Support.

You’re putting in the sweat equity, so you should see the savings.

UglyDeck combines competitive material pricing with professional planning and support to help you spend less without cutting corners. You take on the work that makes sense for you—and keep more of the savings that come with doing it yourself.

Real homeowners. Real DIY decks. Real support when they need it.

“UglyDeck helped a ton. They were extremely responsive. They did a fantastic job. Especially with the stairs… We would send photos with our calculations and they gave us the thumbs up so we started cutting!”

“I had never built a big deck before. They put in the footings and ledger and got me started nice and square. The tutorials were a huge help to me. I liked that I was able to call and ask questions. It’s nice to feel confidant before you start cutting things up. Everything was a real quick turn around. I also liked that I didn’t have to go shopping for stuff and even went through and priced everything on my own and there wasn’t a mark-up.”
