Custom Outdoor Builders Serving Utah County

Expert Custom Decks, Pergolas, Awnings & Railings

Pergolas & Awnings

Aluminum and timber pergolas, together with fixed, free-standing, and motorized retractable awnings, put shade exactly where the afternoon sun lands. Beams are reinforced and wired during the build, so ceiling fans and lighting install cleanly later without visible conduit.

Patio Covers

A covered patio turns an exposed slab into a room you use in July heat and February snow. We frame the cover, tie in drainage, finish the ceiling, and add recessed lighting or Bluetooth speakers where you want them.

Railings

Iron, aluminum, and custom wood railings are built to the 36-inch guard height and 4-inch baluster spacing that local inspectors check. Posts are fastened into the deck framing itself rather than surface-mounted to decking boards, where they eventually loosen.

Custom Decks

Composite and wood decks come with custom stairs, built-in benches, privacy walls, and skirting sized to your yard. Sloped lots become multi-level layouts, and tired decks get rebuilt, repaired, or torn out and hauled away entirely, leaving a clear site.

Roof Structure

Framed roofs finished with shingles or metal panels carry Lehi's 43 psf snow loads and shed runoff through integrated gutters, soffit, and trim. Ridge and gable venting releases trapped summer heat so the space stays comfortable underneath on August afternoons.

From First Snow to Summer Sun, Outdoor Living Built for Lehi, UT

Lehi sits at 4,543 feet, where 33 inches of yearly snow, 226 days of high-altitude sun, and a 30-inch frost line all work on the same backyard structure. H&L Custom Builders designs and builds for exactly those conditions, from custom decks and pergolas to awnings, railings, patio covers, and framed roof structures across Utah County. We hold a General Contractor's License and a B100 License, carry insurance, and stay owner-operated, so the people who price your project are the same ones framing it. Behind us sit 30 years of combined framing, decking, railing, pergola, and awning work across Lehi, UT, and every build starts with a free on-site consultation on your own property.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • What outdoor living projects add the most value to a home?

    Decks, covered patios, and pergolas return the most because they add genuinely usable square footage without a full addition. Buyers walk out back and see finished, functional space. Well-built structures with permanent footings read as part of the house.

  • How far in advance should I plan an outdoor project?

    Start two to four months before you want to use the space. Design, material selection, permitting, and inspection scheduling all take time, and spring booking fills quickly. Planning through winter means construction begins the moment ground conditions allow in spring.

  • What is involved in framing for outdoor construction projects?

    Framing is the structural skeleton beneath decks, pergolas, and covered patios, sized so loads travel safely down to the footings. It demands precise measurement, sound lumber, and compliance with local building code. At H&L Custom Builders, framing carries 30 years of practice.

Craftsmanship That Keeps Standing Long After the Last Board Goes Down

Backyards in Lehi, UTtake a beating from snow load, dry heat, and 30-inch frost, and structures built without respect for that show it within a few winters. H&L Custom Builders takes the extra steps up front, in footing depth, flashing, fastening, and finish, so your deck, pergola, or covered patio still looks right years later. We stand behind our labor, and if a flaw in our work appears, we return and repair it at no cost. Reach out through our contact page to schedule a free on-site consultation.
