Customize Your Deck With the Best Deck Framing

A strong frame is the foundation of a deck’s performance and lifespan. At CHS Custom Decks & Design, we tailor every project to match the customer’s goals, local climate, and long-term maintenance needs. We offer three main framing types, each suited to a different vision.

Wood

A classic choice for deck framing, treated wood is widely used for its affordability and versatility. It performs well when properly installed and maintained, especially for standard residential applications.

Aluminum

Lightweight, rust-resistant, and virtually maintenance-free, aluminum framing offers superior strength and longevity. Ideal for clients looking for a modern, durable alternative to traditional wood.

PWT – Pressure-Treated LVL

Engineered for consistency and performance, PWT (Laminated Veneer Lumber) resists warping, moisture, and decay. It’s designed to support longer spans with less deflection, making it perfect for custom and complex builds.

Main Benefits of Deck Framing

We offers long-term advantages when done by professionals like CHS Custom Decks & Design. Here’s what sets our custom deck framing apart:

Structural Integrity that Lasts

Quality framing is the difference between a deck that creaks and one that stands firm for decades.

Tailored to Your Build

Whether you’re designing a multi-level entertainment area or a compact backyard nook, we frame according to function and vision.

Material Flexibility

From classic wood to state-of-the-art aluminum, we offer framing options to suit every aesthetic and budget.

Weather-Ready Engineering

Minnesota winters and humid summers demand a frame that can handle both. We build with the climate in mind.

Permits & Compliance Included

We manage all permitting and ensure every frame passes inspection—so you don’t have to lose sleep over red tape.

What Our Customer Say About Us

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the best material for deck framing in Minnesota?
It depends on your goals. Wood works well for most builds, but aluminum and PWT offer better resistance to moisture, insects, and warping.
For an average-sized deck, framing usually takes 1–3 days depending on site conditions and material type.
Yes. We handle all necessary permitting and ensure everything is up to local building codes.
Sometimes. We’ll inspect the structure for rot, warping, and code compliance. If it passes, we can build on it—if not, we recommend starting fresh.
KDAT is dried after pressure treatment, making it more stable and less likely to shrink or twist as it cures.
