If your HOA has strict design rules, your deck is an original from the 1980s, or your newer lot leaves the yard in full sun, you’re deciding who to call. CHL Services is a deck builder in Alpharetta. We build in Trex composite and pressure-treated wood, and we add fireplaces, outdoor kitchens, screened rooms, and sunrooms when you want more than a deck. Some homeowners are replacing an old deck. Others are planning a whole outdoor space. Some communities review how a deck looks, down to railing and board color. We’ll tell you plainly which parts are worth doing. We work in Alpharetta, with Roswell next door and Marietta and Woodstock not far off. Send in the short project questionnaire, and we’ll call you to talk through your yard.
Who Builds Your Deck and Who Prepares Your HOA Drawing
Chris Bryant started CHL Services in 2015 with more than 20 years in construction and remodeling. The crew’s rule is to think like the client, so you hear what a project really involves before you sign. As a deck builder in Alpharetta, we pull the permit and provide a CAD drawing for your HOA application. Before work begins, you get a defined start date and schedule, and your project manager walks the finished deck with you at the end.

Deck Work for Alpharetta Homes in Design-Controlled Communities
A Custom Deck in a Community With Design Rules
In master-planned communities, HOA approval is often the slower step, so the drawing has to be right the first time. As a deck builder in Alpharetta, we build the plan around your HOA’s rules from the start. Then, as a custom deck builder, we fit the layout, stairs, and railing to the lot and the house.
Trex Composite Decking for an Open, Sunny Lot
Composite boards warm up on an open lot, and dark colors run hottest. Some Trex lines use heat-mitigating technology, and a roof or pergola adds shade that no color can. As a Trex deck builder, we help you compare color, technology, and shade before you order.
Replacing an Older Wood Deck on a 1980s Home
Many homes in the older neighborhoods toward Roswell date to the 1980s, so an original deck may be 40 years old. As a wood deck builder, we check the deck against current code first, then rebuild in pressure-treated wood with sturdy posts and railing, and we’ll tell you honestly if a repair is enough.
Turning a Screened Porch Into a Sunroom
A screened porch on an older home already has a roof and a frame, which makes a sunroom conversion simpler than building new. As a sunroom builder, we add windows, insulation, and heating and cooling once the structure checks out, which also gives you a room that works in more seasons.
A Deck With a Fireplace or Outdoor Kitchen
Some Alpharetta homeowners want a deck that works as a second living room. As an outdoor living contractor, we can plan the deck, a fireplace or outdoor kitchen, and lighting as one project, so the layout works from the first drawing, and we’ll flag which extras are worth adding.
Reworking the Inside of an Alpharetta Home
Windward homes from the 1980s and 1990s often have finished daylight basements, and some Rivermont homes include a terrace-level suite, so a basement remodel here is often a rework, not a first finish. We also rebuild master baths and update kitchens with new cabinets, islands, and lighting.

What to Know Before Building in Alpharetta
Windward and Rivermont show how much Alpharetta lots differ. Windward has homes from the 1980s and 1990s, many with finished daylight basements that put the deck a full story up. Rivermont has homes from the 1980s on lots that can run an acre or more, some sloped and wooded. Older homes toward Roswell date to the 1980s, so an original deck may be 40 years old. Newer lots are often open and get full sun, which makes shade a design question from the start. Both communities have an HOA, and we handle the permits and provide the HOA documents.
As a deck builder in Alpharetta, we start by looking at your lot, including the slope, the sun, and the age of the old deck. That tells us what the deck needs and what is worth adding.
We also work in Roswell next door. Our Alpharetta service area includes the following ZIP codes: 30004, 30005, 30009, 30022, and 30076.
