When it comes to outdoor living in Colorado, especially along the Front Range from Colorado Springs to Castle Rock to Morrison, your home deserves more than a standard deck. At Masterpiece Outdoorliving, we believe every outdoor space should reflect your lifestyle, your home's architecture, and the natural beauty of Colorado. That's why our team specializes in designing and building high quality, luxury custom decks that go beyond the ordinary.
Unique Deck Features You'll LoveOur design process starts with your ideas. Whether you want a quiet retreat for morning coffee or a grand entertaining space for family and friends, we bring your vision to life. Some of the unique features we can create include:
Covered Decks & Four-Season Spaces
Enjoy your deck year-round with glass walls, built-in heaters, and custom roofing. You bought your home because you loved the view - a four-season space keeps you comfortable no matter the weather and allows you to take in those gorgeous Colorado views for more than a few short summer months.
Imagine spending your evenings here on those cool, crisp autumn nights.
Outdoor Kitchens & Bars
Perfect for entertaining and customized exactly to your liking. Grilling, smoking, frying, pizza ovens, griddles... however you want to use your space. Build in all the features that work for you like extra storage, completely sealed trash cans, sinks, bars, fridges, and extra counter space. Make your outdoor kitchen an entertainer's dream!
Our clients end up using their outdoor kitchens daily to keep the smoke and smells outside and making clean up a cinch!
Fire Features
If you don't have a fire feature in your outdoor space, do you even really have an outdoor space! We're kidding, but fireplaces or fire pits that make cool Colorado evenings cozy and inviting are essential. Our signature fire features are not only eye-catching but put off a tremendous amount of heat. There's no comparison between our custom fire features and a propone-fueled firepit you can buy at the store.
Turn off the tv, put down your phone, and enjoy the evening around the fire.
Multi-Level Decks
It doesn't matter where you are... Monument, Castle Rock, Parker, Evergreen, Littleton, Morrison, Golden... the views are breathtaking. A multi-level deck adds dimension, functionality, and allows you the best vantage point for those stunning views.
A second level also gives you more covered entertaining space below, and with the use of a dry below deck system, you'll never have any moisture dripping down on you.
The sky's the limit with what you can do with that space. At this Lone Tree outdoor space, we added a dumbwaiter between the kitchen and entertaining space below.
Wellness & Entertaining Spaces
Swim spas, gyms, yoga spaces, golf simulators, garden areas, outdoor cinemas, there's no limit! We're even building a "catio", yes, a patio customized to accommodate our client's kitty furbabies.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What makes a deck "custom" compared to a standard deck?
A custom deck is designed specifically for your home, your lifestyle, and your outdoor space. At Masterpiece Outdoorliving, we create unique outdoor living designs in Castle Rock, Colorado, tailored with features like outdoor kitchens, fire pits, covered areas, and luxury finishes. Unlike standard decks, custom decks are built to fit your vision and maximize your home's potential.
2. How long does it take to build a custom deck in Colorado?
The timeline depends on the size, complexity of your project, and where you live. Most custom decks in Colorado take a few weeks to design, and depending on the building department in your area, a few weeks to a few months for permits. The build time is, of course, determined by the size of your project. We've worked completed project in a few weeks and also a few years. At Masterpiece Outdoorliving, we start with a free consultation followed by a detailed design process so you'll know exactly what to expect before construction begins.
3. Can a custom deck handle Colorado's weather?
Yes! Our custom decks are engineered for durability in Colorado's climate—from hot, sunny summers to snowy winters. We use premium materials like composite decking, weather-resistant finishes, steel frames, and structural designs that withstand seasonal changes.
4. What features can I add to my custom deck?
The options are nearly endless. Colorado homeowners love adding outdoor kitchens, fire features, operable glass walls, retractable screens, covered roofs, built-in lighting, and multi-level layouts. If you can imagine it, Masterpiece Outdoorliving can design and build it.
5. How much does a custom deck in Colorado cost?
Pricing depends on the size, features, and finishes you choose. As custom deck builder, most of our projects start at $100k and go up past the million dollar mark. A simple deck, think wind-blocking glass walls and a signature fire feature, will cost less, while a luxury design with multiple features—like an outdoor kitchen or four-season room—will be a larger investment. During your consultation, we'll create a design that fits both your vision and your budget.
6. Do you offer design help for homeowners who don't know what they want yet?
Absolutely! Many of our clients in Castle Rock, Colorado Springs, Parker, and all across the Front Range of Colorado come to us with only a general idea of how they'd like to use their space. Our design team guides you through layouts, materials, and features, showing you what's possible for your home and lifestyle.
7. Why choose Masterpiece Outdoorliving for my deck?
We specialize in custom decks and outdoor living spaces in Castle Rock and throughout Colorado. Our reputation is built on creative design, high-quality craftsmanship, and the ability to turn even the boldest ideas into reality. If you can dream it, we can build it.
Another unique differentiator for Masterpiece Outdoorliving is our team. Unlike most deck and patio builders, all of our engineers, architects, and field crew are in house. This allows us to move faster with a superior degree of accuracy and consistency.
