Deck & Patio Installation for Idaho Falls Homeowners
As the largest city in Eastern Idaho, Idaho Falls is experiencing rapid residential growth with new subdivisions in Ammon, north Idaho Falls, and along the Snake River corridor. The booming housing market means hundreds of new homes each year with unfinished basements waiting to be transformed.
Idaho Falls' 42-inch frost line means deck footings must go deep. Most raised decks here are 30-48 inches above grade due to typical foundation heights on newer builds.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit for a deck in Idaho?
Yes. Most Idaho cities require a building permit for decks over 200 sq ft or more than 30 inches above grade. Your contractor handles all permit applications and inspections.
What’s the best decking material for Idaho weather?
Composite decking (like Trex or TimberTech) is the most durable for Idaho’s freeze-thaw cycles — no rotting, warping, or annual staining. Cedar is the premium natural option. Pressure-treated pine is the budget-friendly choice but requires annual sealing.
How much does a deck cost in Eastern Idaho?
Expect $25–$70 per square foot depending on material and complexity. A typical 300 sq ft pressure-treated deck runs $7,500–$12,000. Composite decks run $13,500–$21,000 for the same size. Our near-wholesale pricing can save you 20–35%.
How deep should deck footings be in Idaho?
Idaho’s frost line is 30–36 inches in Eastern Idaho. Deck footings must extend below the frost line — typically 36–42 inches deep with concrete piers. This prevents frost heave, which is the #1 cause of deck problems in our area.
