As a leading commercial deck company in Apple Valley, MN, CHS Custom Decks & Design understands that a commercial deck is more than an aesthetic addition—it’s a strategic investment in your property. We deliver top-rated deck installation for businesses across the Twin City Metro Area, providing code-compliant, high-performance structures that elevate your exterior and boost usability. Whether you’re enhancing a restaurant patio, retail storefront, or multi-family building, our team ensures your deck is designed for long-term performance, visual impact, and regulatory compliance.
As a premier commercial deck company in Apple Valley, MN, CHS Custom Decks & Design views decking in commercial contexts as more than an aesthetic gesture—it’s a performative space where architecture intersects with public experience. We engage each project as a spatial strategy, working within technical, environmental, and regulatory constraints to deliver platforms that support business goals and user engagement alike. Our approach centers on resilience, code compliance, and the adaptive capacity of each design to serve multiple stakeholders.

While natural wood—such as cedar, redwood, and Ipe—may be preferred for boutique or hospitality applications seeking warmth and authenticity, we advise clients to consider long-term upkeep and climate exposure when selecting softwoods or tropical hardwoods.

Ideal for high-traffic, low-maintenance installations, composite decking materials resist fading, splintering, and rot. These properties make them particularly well-suited for commercial use, where reliability and aesthetics must coexist.

Offering the highest resistance to weather, stain, and insect damage, PVC materials are often favored in institutional or high-volume spaces where safety and durability are non-negotiable.

Integrated lighting solutions support wayfinding, extend operational hours, and contribute to ambiance, especially in hospitality and entertainment venues.

Engineered to meet commercial load ratings, our framing systems incorporate steel or reinforced wood as appropriate.

Skirting enhances presentation while deterring unauthorized access beneath the structure—critical for liability and security in public-facing environments.

We employ deep footings, diamond pier footings or helical piers designed to withstand heavy usage and freeze-thaw cycles common to The Twin City Metro Area Community.

Maximize spatial efficiency with dry storage or utility access beneath elevated decks—an especially valuable feature in urban or multi-use developments.

ADA-compliant and structurally reinforced rail systems ensure user safety while aligning with brand identity and design language.
Suited for storefronts, pop-up retail zones, or outdoor cafés, platform decks offer accessible, ground-level expansion without requiring extensive structural support.
By elevating users above grade, raised decks can create panoramic dining terraces, event stages, or transit-adjacent social spaces, while enabling storage or utility space below.
Frequently used in entertainment or hospitality venues, these decks delineate programmatic zones such as VIP lounges, bar areas, or performance stages within a cohesive structure.
These unattached structures are often employed in parks, outdoor pavilions, or garden centers, allowing for design flexibility and site adaptability.
A popular solution in urban commercial design, rooftop decks convert unused overhead space into high-value gathering areas, often used for bars, lounges, or co-working amenities.
Designed to resist chlorinated water and accommodate continuous foot traffic, pool decks in hotels or fitness centers must meet specific safety and slip-resistance standards.
Used to soften hard architectural lines or guide user circulation, curved decks introduce a sense of movement and distinction in otherwise rectilinear settings.
These suspended platforms can project views or extend functionality without requiring posts or columns, making them especially valuable in constrained or scenic locations.
Integral in climates like Minnesota’s, covered decks extend seasonal use for restaurants and venues by sheltering patrons from precipitation and UV exposure.
Where commercial sites abut residential zones or public right-of-ways, privacy screens serve as both regulatory compliance and aesthetic refinement.

This industry leader in composite decking offers commercial-grade products with fade and stain resistance, backed by long-term warranties.

Known for its robust PVC lines, TimberTech offers superior resilience and color stability, ideal for demanding commercial applications.
EXCELLENT Based on 37 reviews Posted on Anabell BondDecember 19, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had my backyard completely remodeled by CHS Custom Decks & Design here in Rosemount, and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. From the very beginning, the team was professional, attentive, and clearly focused on making sure the entire process went smoothly. The project included a new pool, an aluminum patio cover, a beautiful fireplace, and a high-end outdoor BBQ area, and every part of it exceeded my expectations. The pool looks amazing, with clean finishes that make the space feel like a private resort right at home. The aluminum patio cover has a modern look and provides the perfect amount of shade while tying in nicely with the rest of the design. The fireplace has quickly become a favorite spot on cooler evenings, and the outdoor BBQ area is both practical and great-looking. What stood out most was the communication throughout the project. The crew showed up on time, kept the area clean, and addressed questions or concerns right away. The attention to detail really shows in the final result, and I’m extremely happy with how the backyard came together.Posted on David FinnessyDecember 15, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Incredibly easy to work with and responsive. Chuck and Heather came out to my home multiple times to make sure we had the right plan in place and also met with me at one of their previous projects at my request so I could see their work. Deck is great and price was better than any other contractor that I considered.Posted on Catherine VuDecember 4, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I are building a home, and from the beginning knew we were interested in creating an "indoor/outdoor" type patio to optimize enjoying the seasons of Minnesota. After a lot of research, I reached out to different vendors and talked to different varying companies. After reading about MagnaTrack and the unique technology, I knew I wanted to learn more about the product. Chuck was not only very prompt with calling me after I submitted an inquiry, he is very knowledgeable and detailed, which is what I am also searching for speficially. His extensive experience is something I value immensely as a customer, especially when choosing to pursue something for our home. My husband and I got to see our MagnaTrack screens go in today, and we both are so incredibly happy with the result. Chuck and his team did a great job. As a customer, I am very happy with the service CHS Custom Decks and Design provided. If anyone is interested in motorized patio screens, I would recommend looking into MagnaTrack screens and I would absolutely recommend Chuck and CHS Custom Decks & Design to do the job! 10/10!!Posted on Amy JordanOctober 7, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an excellent experience with CHS! They repaired my deck and my electric pergola, and the results exceeded my expectations. The team was communicative, efficient, and went above and beyond in every way. They showed real attention to detail and pride in their work, and it truly shows in the finished product. It’s rare to find a company this reliable and professional. I can’t recommend them highly enough!Posted on Dave OrbeckistanAugust 21, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Chuck and Heather were great. Heather helped us with design. We came out with a better design, more usable space, great look. The crews were fantastic. Hard working, friendly, talented. Chuck is just on top of things. We had a small miscommunication with the look of the stairs. Chuck was so quick to get that fixed. And noticed the wood frame around the window and doors could look better with new material. Really looks good. The deck looks just greatPosted on Allen ShawJuly 14, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. CHS does great work from start to finish.
