A deck is more than just an outdoor platform — it’s an extension of your home, a gathering space, and a retreat where you can enjoy the beauty of New England’s seasons. Whether you’re sipping your morning coffee, hosting summer barbecues, or soaking in the crisp fall air, a professionally built deck can transform your backyard into the perfect escape.
At Creative Enclosures, we’ve been designing and building decks throughout Connecticut and Rhode Island for over 36 years. We know what it takes to create a space that’s as functional as it is beautiful — and built to last.

Adding a deck is one of the most impactful home improvements you can make. Here’s why homeowners in Connecticut and Rhode Island love them:
Expanded living space – Enjoy more room for entertaining, dining, and relaxing.
Boosted home value – According to the Cost vs. Value Report, a well-built deck can provide an excellent return on investment.
Seasonal enjoyment – Our region offers three seasons of outdoor living. Make the most of spring, summer, and fall.

Professional vs. DIY Deck Installation
While a DIY deck build might seem tempting, there’s more to the process than meets the eye. Without proper planning and construction, you risk:
Structural issues from improper footings or framing
Safety hazards from unstable railings or stairs
Costly repairs due to poor weatherproofing
Code violations that can halt your project
Our team stays up-to-date on Connecticut and Rhode Island building codes and safety regulations. Every deck we build is engineered for strength, weather resistance, and long-term performance — giving you peace of mind for years to come.
