Building in Algonquin
The decks we build in Algonquin.
Algonquin is a Fox River town, and the river shapes the deck work. The affluent Randall Road corridor subdivisions west of town were built in the late-90s-to-2008 boom, which means a wave of original decks hitting replacement age at exactly the price point where homeowners want to upgrade, not just repair. We're fourteen minutes down Randall Road from our Crystal Lake shop, so Algonquin is an easy, regular run for us.
Algonquin splits into two build profiles. West of Randall Road — Trails of Woods Creek, Willoughby Farms, Saddlewood — you've got 1995–2008 production two-story homes where the deck comes off a raised kitchen or family room, so we build a lot of elevated and second-story decks with proper stair runs down to the yard. These are the jobs where the affluent buyer steps up to composite and a matching railing system. Down in Old Algonquin near the Fox River, the pre-1950 homes sit on tighter, older lots and take more ground-level and riverfront-facing builds, where the elevated humidity off the river makes composite's rot-resistance an even easier recommendation than usual.

Permits & code
Permits, footings & inspections in Algonquin.
Decks in Algonquin are permitted through the Village of Algonquin (Community Development / Building), and the village publishes its own Deck Construction Requirements sheet, so the standards are spelled out. Piers must be a minimum 8-inch diameter or 10-inch square and extend at least 42 inches below grade for frost — non-negotiable in this county — and guards are required on any deck more than 30 inches above grade. Algonquin runs three inspections: piers after the holes are dug and before concrete is poured, a rough framing inspection before the decking goes down, and a final once the deck is complete. We pull the permit and meet all three, so you never wait on the counter or the inspector.
