Northgate throws its own weather at an outdoor build — higher and cooler than downtown with earlier snow and steady breeze, plus the UV load at 7,050 ft. Our custom decks substructures, flashings, and finishes are all specified for those conditions, not a generic Colorado spec.
Because we build across the Pikes Peak region — Colorado Springs, Northgate, and neighboring cities — the crew has seen the failure modes: bad flashings, undersized joists, low-grade composite in south-facing sun. We build the opposite of those.

Tuned to your many backyards open west toward the mountains
