Custom Deck Design & Building in North Georgia
Deck Building Designed Around Your Backyard, Not a Template
Every custom deck we build starts with your property: the slope of your lot, the way the sun crosses your yard, the view you want to keep, and how you’ll actually use the space: grilling, hosting, hot tub, quiet coffee. North Georgia Elite Decks was founded by a full home builder, which means your deck’s footings, framing, and load paths are engineered like a house, not guessed like a weekend project.
As a TrexPro® Platinum installer (the top 1% nationwide) we design and build custom wood and composite decks across Jasper, Canton, Woodstock, Alpharetta, Cumming and Ellijay, handle the Georgia permits and code compliance for you, and back every build with a workmanship warranty.

What Homeowners Say About Their Custom Decks
Custom Deck Building Questions, Answered
How much does a custom deck cost in North Georgia?
Most custom decks we build run $15,000–$60,000+ installed. A 16×20 Trex® deck typically lands $18k–$28k; multi-level and elevated builds run more. Material, height, railing, and stairs drive the price. Our free calculator gives you a personalized range in under a minute.
How long does a custom deck take to design and build?
Design and permitting typically take 2–4 weeks depending on your county. Build time is 1–2 weeks for single-level decks and 2–4 weeks for multi-level or combo projects. You get a written schedule before we start.
Do you handle the deck permit and inspections?
Yes. On every qualifying project we pull the county permit, build to the IRC with Georgia Amendments, and schedule both the footing and final inspections. Our decks pass first-time because they’re designed to the checklist from day one.
Can you build on a steep or sloped lot?
That’s our specialty. North Georgia’s mountain terrain (Jasper, Big Canoe, Ellijay, Blue Ridge) is where our founder’s home-building background pays off: engineered footings, stepped framing, and multi-level designs that make slopes an asset instead of a problem.
Wood or composite: which should I choose?
Pressure-treated wood costs less upfront; Trex® and TimberTech® composite eliminates staining forever and carries 25–50 year warranties. As a TrexPro® Platinum installer we build both, and we’ll give you an honest recommendation for your budget, not a sales pitch.
Do you offer deck financing?
Yes. Flexible financing is available on qualifying projects, and many clients build their dream deck for a manageable monthly payment. See our financing page or ask during your free consultation.
