All Seasons Decks is headquartered in Liberty Hill, at our shop on County Road 258, and we build decks across town and on the acreage around it. The first thing we settle on a Liberty Hill project is jurisdiction: inside city limits you need a City of Liberty Hill permit, while outside them in unincorporated Williamson County there is no building permit but floodplain rules may apply. Then we design for the rock.
The City of Liberty Hill requires a permit for any construction that physically changes or adds structures, applied for through MyPermitNow and reviewed under the 2021 IRC. The city also has a Heritage Tree Permit, which matters if your deck layout crowds a large oak.
Many Liberty Hill addresses are outside city limits. Unincorporated Williamson County does not issue residential building permits, but if your lot is near a 100-year floodplain, the county requires a Floodplain Development Permit or Certificate of Compliance. HOAs in places like Santa Rita Ranch and Stonewall Ranch still review the design either way.
Most Liberty Hill lots have limestone under a thin layer of soil. Rock is a solid base, so movement is rarely the issue. Getting down to good bearing is. We drill each pier into the rock and anchor posts to it, which costs more in equipment time than digging in dirt but gives a footing that will not move.
Where rock sits right at the surface, we also check drainage. Water that sheets off a rock shelf can collect under a deck, and good grading keeps framing dry.
Lots here are bigger, and so are the decks. Buyers often want 400 sq ft or more, a pool deck, or a deck that wraps two sides of the house to catch a view. A multi-level deck over 400 sq ft runs $35,000 to $55,000, and a composite pool deck over 500 sq ft runs $40,000 to $65,000.
Many acreage homes have no mature trees near the house, so a deck takes full afternoon sun. Lighter composite colors stay cooler underfoot, and a pergola or patio cover over part of the deck makes it usable in July.
Our shop and headquarters are on County Road 258 in Liberty Hill, so crews and materials start close to your project. That matters most on big acreage decks, where material comes in several deliveries and the crew is on site for weeks.
Large decks also need planning for access. On acreage, we check where a delivery truck can reach without rutting the yard or crossing a septic field, and where drilling equipment can get to each pier location. Those details go into the fixed quote up front, so the price you sign is the price you pay.
Before we leave, you get a walkthrough of the finished deck and our 1-year workmanship warranty in writing.
Our shop is at 2401 Co Rd 258 in Liberty Hill, so this is home ground. Liberty Hill mixes big master-planned communities like Santa Rita Ranch with acreage and older homes outside city limits, and which of those you live in decides who permits your project. We build decks, covered patios, pergolas, gazebos, screened porches and outdoor kitchens across Liberty Hill.
Permits, HOAs, soil and local building tips for Liberty Hill
"Out here the ground is mostly rock with a little dirt on top. That changes the math. A big ground-level patio can cost less than a tall deck, because every footing on a deck means drilling into limestone. And if you've got a view to the west, we'll talk about shade before we talk about boards."
- Mark Toomey
A well-built deck adds 70-80% of its cost back to your home value - one of the highest ROIs of any home improvement. But a poorly built deck becomes a liability: wood rot, unstable railings, even detachment from the house. In Texas, where we swing from 20 degrees to 105 degrees in a single year, proper engineering isn't optional.
Our deck designs account for 100+ degree surface temperatures, freeze-thaw cycles, and the expansion/contraction that destroys poorly built decks. We've refined these details over 5,000 projects.
We back our workmanship for a full year and your materials carry manufacturer warranties up to 50 years. That's confidence earned from four decades of standing behind our work. Most contractors won't even put their warranty in writing.
Permits, HOA architectural review, utility locates, inspections - it's all included. You approve the design and we take it from there. No project management headaches for you.
No subcontractors, no rotating workers. The experienced team that starts your deck finishes it. They take pride in their work because their name is on it.
