Site Assessment & Design
We evaluate your yard, grade, soil, drainage, and sun exposure. You receive a design with material options, dimensions, and a fixed-price estimate.
Permit & Engineering
Construction drawings are prepared and submitted for permits. Elevated decks require engineering. Patio projects typically do not require permits unless near property lines.
Foundation & Structure
Deck footings are dug to 36-inch frost depth and poured. Patio base is excavated, graded, and compacted. Structural framing or base material is installed and inspected.
Surface & Finishing
Decking boards, pavers, or concrete are installed. Railings, stairs, lighting, and accessories complete the project. Final inspection and care instructions provided.
How much does a deck cost in Boise?
Composite decks in Boise typically cost $30–$60 per square foot installed. Pressure-treated wood runs $20–$40 per square foot. A standard 300 sq ft composite deck with railings and stairs costs $12,000–$20,000.
How much does a patio cost in Boise?
Paver patios cost $15–$30 per square foot installed. Stamped concrete runs $10–$20 per square foot. A 400 sq ft paver patio typically costs $6,000–$12,000 including base preparation and edging.
Deck vs. patio — which is better for my property?
Decks work best for elevated or sloped yards, second-story access, and homes where you want to be at floor level. Patios are ideal for flat yards, fire pit areas, and lower-maintenance ground-level outdoor spaces. Many homeowners combine both for maximum outdoor living flexibility.
Do I need a permit to build a deck or patio in Boise?
Decks over 30 inches above grade or attached to the house require a building permit in Boise and Ada County. Most patios at grade level do not require permits unless they affect drainage or setbacks. Iron Crest Remodel handles all permitting.
How deep do deck footings need to be in Idaho?
Deck footings in the Boise area must extend to 36 inches below grade to reach below the frost line. This prevents frost heave from shifting the deck structure. Ada County inspectors verify footing depth before framing can begin.
Not every decks & patios project is the same. Cosmetic updates are minor refreshes — not full remodels. Full remodels start at the Standard tier and above. Here are the most common scope levels we handle in the Boise area, with typical investment ranges.
Ground-Level Patio
$6,000 – $15,000
Paver or stamped concrete patio at grade. 200–400 sq ft with base preparation, edging, and basic landscaping integration.
Standard Deck
$12,000 – $25,000
300–500 sq ft composite or wood deck with railings, stairs, and basic lighting. Most common residential deck project.
Multi-Level Deck
$25,000 – $50,000+
Two or more connected deck levels with stairs, landings, railings, and integrated features like benches or planters.
Outdoor Living Suite
$40,000 – $80,000+
Deck or patio with pergola, outdoor kitchen prep area, fire pit, lighting, and integrated landscaping. Complete outdoor room.
Remodeling in the Treasure Valley comes with local factors that affect scope, cost, and timeline. Here is what Boise-area homeowners should know.
Frost Line (36 inches)
All deck footings in Ada County must extend 36 inches below grade. Frost heave will shift footings that are too shallow, causing structural movement and railing misalignment over time.
UV and Temperature Extremes
Boise sees 200+ sunny days and temperature swings from -10°F to 105°F. Composite decking resists UV fading and thermal expansion better than wood. Dark-colored composites can reach 160°F surface temperature in direct summer sun.
Wildfire Considerations
Ada County foothills properties may fall within wildland-urban interface zones. Non-combustible decking (composite, aluminum) and ember-resistant design are recommended for foothill and bench-area homes.
Drainage and Grading
Patios require proper grading (1–2% slope away from the foundation) to prevent water pooling. Boise's clay-heavy soils in some areas drain poorly and may need French drain integration.
Choosing between composite deck and paver patio? Here is a side-by-side comparison to help you decide.
| Factor | Composite Deck | Paver Patio |
|---|---|---|
| Cost (installed) | $30–$60/sq ft | $15–$30/sq ft |
| Maintenance | Minimal (wash annually) | Minimal (re-sand joints every 3–5 yrs) |
| Lifespan | 25–50 years (warranty) | 25–50+ years |
| Best For | Elevated, multi-level, entertaining | Ground-level, fire pits, low profile |
| Permits Required | Yes (if >30" above grade) | Rarely (at grade level) |

Eagle's housing stock skews upscale, with a concentration of custom and semi-custom homes built from the 1990s onward. Neighborhoods like Avimor, Banbury, and Eagle Hills feature large-format kitchens, master suites, and premium finishes that homeowners upgrade to stay current with design trends. Many Eagle properties have HOA design guidelines that govern exterior modifications including siding materials, paint colors, and deck specifications. The foothills areas present unique construction considerations — rocky soil, sloped lots, and custom foundations that affect project planning for ADUs and additions.
“Iron Crest understood what we wanted for our Eagle kitchen — high-end but not ostentatious. The quartzite countertops and custom range hood are exactly right for the home. Their attention to detail on the cabinet install was exceptional.”
