The best way to beat the winter blues (besides hopping on a plane to somewhere warmer) is to plan your new deck now. Dreaming about sunny days spent on your new deck can warm even the chilliest of days. Plus, at Creative Concepts & Design we do winter deck building in Overland Park, so starting the process now ensures you’ll have a fully finished deck ready to enjoy as soon as spring arrives.
Winter Deck Building in Overland Park Isn’t a Problem
It gets pretty cold here in Overland Park during the winter months. So, you might be thinking, “How can you pour concrete if it’s below freezing?” While it’s true that concrete can’t be poured when temperatures are below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, many people don’t realize that deck piers and footings are poured below the frost line. This means we can pour concrete as long as the surface temperature is above freezing. And even on chilly days, concrete generates heat as it cures. By adding hot water and calcium, we can accelerate this process during cold months.
In reality, there are only a handful of days in a Kansas City winter that are truly too cold for concrete work. This is great news because it means we can build decks in Overland Park most days of the winter. And there are actually some significant advantages to building your deck in Overland Park during this time.
Advantages to Winter Deck Building
Lower Cost
Thanks to supply and demand, lumber prices often dip in the winter months. This means you’ll save on material costs. Plus, Creative Concepts & Design offers financing options to help you spread the cost over time, making budgeting even easier.
Ease of Scheduling and Availability
Summer is the peak season for deck building in Overland Park, which means you could wait weeks or even months to get started. In winter, schedules are typically slower, so you’ll be able to get your project started right away. The sooner we begin, the sooner you’ll have a deck ready for spring.
Less Mess and Damage to Landscaping
In winter, lawns are dormant, and the soil is more solid. This means less damage from heavy machinery and construction traffic. By the time spring rolls around, your lawn will recover naturally, and you’ll notice much less disruption than in the wet spring months.
No Waiting in Spring!
The best reason to build your deck in winter? You’ll avoid the rush and start enjoying your outdoor space as soon as the weather warms up. There’s no waiting, no delays, just plenty of time to soak up the sun on your brand-new deck.
