Location: Chaska, MN
Renovations: Deck replacement, composite decking installation, aluminum railing installation, outdoor lighting
For homeowners across Chaska, the signs of a deck nearing the end of its life are hard to ignore: boards that need repainting every year, railings that no longer feel solid, and a look that clashes with the rest of the home. That was the reality for one Chaska family who had already trusted Iron River Construction with two previous interior remodeling projects.
A Deck Past the Point of Repair
The existing deck was more than an eyesore. Continuing to paint the boards each season was no longer worth it since the structure itself was starting to fail. The homeowners were ready for a permanent, low-maintenance solution instead of another temporary fix.

Why This Chaska Family Chose Iron River Construction Again
Having worked with Iron River Construction on two prior interior projects, the homeowners already knew what to expect: clear communication and quality craftsmanship. When they decided to turn their backyard into a low-maintenance retreat, they brought Iron River Construction back on board, this time coordinating alongside a local pool company and landscaping company to complete the full transformation.
Deck Construction Services Performed
- Removed and replaced deteriorating decking, railing, beams, and posts
- Reused sound existing framing where structurally possible
- Installed TimberTech Landmark composite decking in Castlegate
- Installed black Westbury Tuscany aluminum railing
- Added column wraps along the back side of the stairs
- Installed LED deck lighting with automatic photo-eye sensors
A Coordinated Backyard Transformation Resulting in a Maintenance-Free Backyard
The deck was designed to wrap around the family’s new pool, tying the entire backyard together. Iron River Construction worked in step with the pool and landscaping contractors so the deck, turf, and pool came together as one cohesive, maintenance-free outdoor living space.
The finished project gave this Chaska family a durable, low-maintenance deck that will never need repainting, complete with railing and lighting built to last through Minnesota winters. Automatic lighting adds safety and ambiance without any extra effort. For a family already on their third project with Iron River Construction, it’s another backyard they can enjoy without worry.
