Why Westmont Homeowners Choose Us
Westmont's blend of established neighborhoods and recently remodeled properties means decks across the village face very different challenges — from aging original framing on mid-century homes to protecting brand-new composite surfaces. We tailor every project to your property's specific needs.
Local Deck Knowledge for Westmont's Unique Properties
Westmont sits in the heart of DuPage County, where hot, humid summers give way to punishing winters with heavy snowfall and repeated freeze-thaw cycles. That seasonal whiplash is especially hard on wood decks — unprotected surfaces crack, warp, and develop mold faster here than in milder regions.
We've been serving this community from our Lombard office — just minutes up Cass Avenue — for over 15 years. Whether your home backs up to Ty Warner Park or you're tucked along a quiet street near the Clarendon Hills border, we understand the soil drainage patterns, sun exposure quirks, and architectural styles that shape the right deck solution for your lot.
Westmont's strong village identity and close-knit neighborhoods mean word travels fast. That's exactly why we treat every project like our reputation depends on it — because in a community this size, it does.

What Westmont Area Homeowners Say About Us
"We wanted a deck that matched the character of our updated ranch near Cass Avenue. Chicago Deck Expert designed a beautiful two-tone composite layout with built-in planters and low-voltage lighting. The crew was professional, clean, and finished right on schedule. Our backyard finally feels like an extension of the house — exactly what we hoped for."
"Our twenty-year-old deck was in rough shape — boards cracking, railings wobbly, and the whole thing looked like it belonged in a different decade. They replaced the worst sections, reinforced the substructure, and refinished everything to look brand new. Honestly couldn't believe it was the same deck. The attention to detail was outstanding from start to finish."
"We had our cedar deck stained and sealed before summer, and the difference is night and day. The team took the time to sand down rough spots, clean every surface thoroughly, and apply a gorgeous semi-transparent finish that really makes the grain pop. They were respectful of our yard and cleaned up perfectly. Already recommended them to two neighbors."

How much does it cost to build a deck in Westmont?
New deck construction in Westmont generally ranges from $25 to $65+ per square foot depending on materials and design complexity. Pressure-treated pine sits at the lower end, while Ipe hardwood and premium composite options command higher prices. Multi-level layouts, built-in seating, and custom railing designs also influence the total.
We provide free on-site estimates with clear, itemized breakdowns so you know exactly where every dollar goes. Learn more about budgeting in our deck cost guide.
Do I need a permit to build a deck in Westmont?
Yes. The Village of Westmont requires a building permit for new deck construction and significant structural modifications. Decks above 30 inches, structures attached to your home, and any project that changes your property's footprint must comply with DuPage County building codes.
We handle all permit applications, plan submissions, and required inspections so you don't have to navigate the process on your own.
What are the best deck materials for Westmont homes?
Ipe hardwood delivers unmatched durability against Midwest freeze-thaw cycles and requires minimal annual upkeep. Composite decking offers a maintenance-free alternative with excellent color retention over time. Pressure-treated lumber remains the most cost-effective choice and performs reliably when sealed on a regular schedule.
We'll recommend the best fit during your free estimate based on your budget, aesthetic preferences, and how much maintenance you're willing to take on. Compare options in our composite decking guide.
How long does a deck restoration take in Westmont?
Most residential deck restorations in Westmont are completed within 2 to 5 days, depending on size and condition. Surface refinishing — power washing, sanding, and re-staining — typically wraps up in 2–3 days. Projects involving board replacement or structural repairs may extend to a full week.
We provide a clear timeline during your free estimate so you can plan around the work with confidence.
What is the difference between deck staining and sealing?
Staining adds pigment to the wood, providing UV protection and color enhancement while partially blocking moisture absorption. Sealing creates a transparent barrier that repels water without changing the wood's natural appearance. Many premium products combine both functions for comprehensive protection.
We assess your deck's wood species, age, and sun exposure to recommend the right approach. For more detail, read our guide on how often to restain your deck.
How often should I maintain my deck in Westmont?
We recommend professional cleaning and recoating every 1–2 years in this area. DuPage County's temperature swings — from sub-zero winters to humid summers — accelerate wear faster than milder climates. South-facing decks with full sun exposure may need annual attention.
Annual inspections also catch small issues like loose fasteners or early rot before they become expensive repairs. Check out our post on the benefits of regular sealing for more tips.
Can you work on older homes in Westmont?
Absolutely. Westmont has a wonderful mix of mid-century homes and recently updated properties, and we work with all of them. Older homes sometimes have original deck framing that needs reinforcement or ledger boards that must be brought up to current code standards.
We assess the existing structure thoroughly and integrate new work seamlessly with your home's architecture — whether that means matching an older aesthetic or modernizing the entire outdoor space.
Do you offer free estimates in Westmont?
Yes. Every project starts with a complimentary on-site consultation where we evaluate your deck, discuss your goals, and deliver a detailed written estimate — typically within 24 hours. There's no pressure and no obligation.
