Hear From Your Neighbors
“Quality of work is phenomenal”
The Archadeck of Chicagoland team installed a new composite deck and paver patio at our home this summer and we absolutely love it! Kristen, Gabrielle, Anthony, Dan, Juan and the entire team that worked with us on our project went out of their way to make sure we had the best possible experience. The quality of work is phenomenal, and we look forward to getting the most out of our new deck and patio for years to come.

“Can't recommend this company enough”
The team at Archadeck was SO helpful and took care of every single detail to turn our splintering multi level deck into one cohesive outdoor room. They started on June 10th, and by the first week of July we were enjoying a cocktail in our new space. Can’t recommend this company enough if you have an outdoor space to renovate!

Everything You Need to Know
We believe an informed homeowner makes the best decisions. Here’s what you should know before you build with Archadeck of Chicagoland.
Is Archadeck licensed and insured?
Yes. We are fully licensed, bonded, and carry comprehensive general liability and workers' compensation insurance to protect you and your property throughout the build.
Do you pull permits?
Absolutely. We handle the entire permitting process, including applications and required inspections, ensuring your project is fully compliant with all local Chicagoland building codes.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. Every project is backed by Archadeck’s written warranty for workmanship and structural integrity. Additionally, our National Guarantee Corporation guarantees your project will be completed as described in your contract.
What is the project timeline for a pergola?
Timelines vary by complexity and local permit processing speeds. Generally, the design and permitting phase takes 4–8 weeks, followed by a construction phase that typically lasts 1–3 weeks.
What’s the difference between a pergola and a covered structure?
A pergola has an open or slatted roof that provides partial shade, while a covered structure (like a porch) offers full protection from sun and rain. Pergolas are ideal for adding style and light shade without fully enclosing the space.
Can a pergola provide enough shade?
Yes. Pergolas are designed to provide filtered shade, and options like adjustable louvered roofs or added canopies can increase sun protection when needed.
