Expert Deck Design Consultation in Grayslake, IL

A deck design consultation with Barefoot Construction helps Grayslake homeowners plan a deck that fits their yard, home style, and how they actually use outdoor space. We walk through your backyard with you, take measurements, and talk through layout options before a single board is ordered. Grayslake sits in Lake County, where winters bring hard freezes and spring thaw cycles that affect how a deck must be built. We factor that into every design decision, from footing depth to material selection. The village also has a strong mix of single-family homes and attached housing, so lot size and setback constraints vary by property. We review those site conditions during the consultation so nothing surprises you later. Whether you want a simple ground-level platform or a multi-level structure off the back of a two-story home, we build the plan around your specific lot. Call Barefoot Construction to schedule your consultation in Grayslake.

After two years our beautiful deck still looks like new. Custom created our outdoor living space. Always prompt with responding, cleaned up the work area each night. Very professional! I would highly recommend.

Great job!! I was thoroughly impressed with the attention to detail provided by Mark. He and his crew went above the standard of service that I was expecting. I would not hesitate to call them in the future. Strongly recommended. More people need to get it done right the first time just like they did! A1 job.
