Deck & Patio Construction in the US industry analysis

Deck and patio construction contractors have experienced notable shifts lately, as consumer behavior and economic trends have reshaped the industry's landscape. With homeowners increasingly seeking affordable ways to enhance their outdoor living spaces, patios have gained traction over traditional decks because of their lower upfront costs. Contractors have capitalized on this by shifting focus toward patio projects, seeing growth in private home improvement spending and providing a much-needed buffer amid the ups and downs of new housing activity. Industry revenue has been increasing at a CAGR of 1.3% over the past five years to total an estimated $1.3 billion in 2025, including an estimated 0.6% increase in 2025.

Trends and Insights

  • Rising material costs, especially for plastics and lumber, have driven up deck construction prices. Contractors have passed these increases on to customers, propping up revenue.
  • Tariffs on imported lumber and composite decking could potentially increase material costs. US tariffs on these products might lead to higher expenses for deck and patio construction projects.
  • Florida is a very popular option for deck and patio contractors. The warm weather and an abundance of retirees make it a great spot to attract consumers.
  • The industry is highly fragmented, with companies operating at a local level. Low barriers to entry make it easier for contractors to come and go.

Ups and downs in residential construction have impacted contractors
