My brother used a different deck builder last year and had nothing but problems. Watched him deal with delays, wrong materials showing up, crew not cleaning up. When we needed our deck done in Black Forest, I asked around and found Alta. Night and day difference. Dave Little ran the project, stayed in touch the whole time, crew showed up when they said they would. The Azenco louvered roof they put in works perfectly. No drama, just got it done right.

We've had other deck contractors out, but Jeff and Alta operate on a completely different level. They built a steel framed deck with a roof for our Centennial home. The steel frame is rock solid, and the stained pine ceiling is exactly what we were looking for. The team was very communicative and detail oriented through the entire project. Absolutely worth every dollar for the quality you receive

We hired Alta Outdoor Living to install a motorized pergola with motorized screens on our back patio in Castle rock, and the result exceeded expectations. The louvered roof opens and closes with the push of a button. The crew was professional, on time, and cleaned everything up perfectly. Our outdoor space now feels like a true extension of our home. Highly recommend to any Douglas County homeowner looking to upgrade their outdoor living

Alta outdoor living built privacy screens for our patio in Highlands Ranch. We were tired of feeling like we were on display every time we went outside. Jeff designed something that doesn't look like a fence or a wall, just fits with the house. They installed it in three days. We can finally eat dinner out there without an audience.

Jon Potter rebuilt our deck after the old one started rotting underneath. He showed us the problem areas and explained what needed replacing. No upselling, just fixed what was broken. Added a louvered roof while they were at it. This deck builder in Greenwood Village knows their stuff. Deck's solid now, roof works like it should.

Alta put a louvered roof over our existing patio instead of replacing everything. Saved us money and time. Jon Potter explained that our concrete was still good, just needed the cover. The Azenco system they installed works with a remote - open it when we want sun, close it when it's too hot. Simple concept, works exactly like they said it would. Crew was professional, in and out in under a week. Good experience overall, would recommend them to friends in Greenwood Village.

Our house in Cherry Creek is older, built in the 80s. Wasn't sure how a new deck would look with it. Dave Little took time to match the style instead of just slapping something modern on there. The privacy screens they designed fit the architecture. This deck builder actually cared about making it look right, not just functional. My partner was worried it would look out of place but it doesn't. Gets compliments from neighbors pretty regularly.

Wasn't sure about spending this much on a deck. Jeff came to our place in Larkspur with actual samples, not just pictures. Showed us what composite looks like after a few years versus new. That helped. Jon Potter walked through the cost breakdown so we understood where the money was going. Decided to go for it. Four months later, using it almost every evening. Turns out it was worth it.

Finally have a patio we actually use in the evenings. The fire pit Jeff Potter helped us design sits perfectly with our new deck and railings, and the cedar tongue-and-groove cover overhead keeps us dry when the weather turns. We're in Colorado Springs and weren't sure a Castle Rock company would want to make the drive, but they never once made it feel like an inconvenience.

After talking with a few different deck builders and hearing three totally different ideas, Alta Outdoor Living was the one that really stood out. They were the only team who actually asked how we use our space day to day, which made a big difference in the final design.

Now our deck in Greenwood Village fits our routine perfectly, morning coffee, afternoon naps, and even evening dinners feel more comfortable out there. The privacy screens they suggested weren’t even on our radar at first, but they’ve made a huge impact and added so much to the space.

Jon made everything clear, he was upfront about the cost and timeline, so there were no surprises at all. We had a louvered roof installed over our patio, and it turned out perfectly. The water now drains away from the house instead of pooling, which was a big issue for us before. The whole project was completed in just three weeks, and we’d definitely use them again.

After talking to several contractors about our Cherry Creek deck, we were told by most of them that a full tear-down was the only option. Jon Potter took a different and much smarter approach. Instead of starting from scratch, he kept the existing foundation and built on it, which made a lot more sense and saved us money in the process.

The Azenco roof they installed has been solid, no leaks at all and completely quiet when it operates. Everything came together just the way we hoped, and we’re really happy with how the project turned out.

The privacy screens along the edge of our deck completely changed the space for us. We can finally enjoy some real privacy from the neighbors without losing our clear view of the trees.

The team at Alta Outdoor Living made the whole process easy from start to finish. Jeff Potter came out to our home in Parker with samples, walked us through the options, and never tried to push us toward the more expensive choices. The composite decking matches our trim perfectly, which really pulled everything together. The entire project was finished in about two weeks, and we honestly have no complaints at all.

We were surprised at how easy Jon Potter made getting our deck approved and built. He handled all the paperwork and even accompanied us to the HOA review meeting, which really made a difference. The deck builder and privacy screens his team designed got approved on the first try, something that rarely happens in our neighborhood. The crew was respectful and quiet while working, which we appreciated since most of us work from home. Eight months later, the deck still looks fantastic and hasn’t required any maintenance.

We were initially told by several deck builders that the cost to engineer a deck would be very high. Jeff Potter saw it differently and proposed a much simpler solution that fit the terrain perfectly without overcomplicating the design.

The end result was a multi-level composite deck that feels natural and thoughtfully planned, not forced in any way. We later added an Azenco roof, and it blended seamlessly with the original deck layout. The pricing was fair, the project stayed on schedule, and the crew always made sure the site was cleaned up at the end of each day.

We wanted to upgrade our deck in Monument without starting completely from scratch, and this team delivered exactly that. They reused the existing posts, which saved us a lot of money, and only replaced what truly needed work. Dave Little’s crew was efficient and thoughtful throughout the process. Jon even caught and fixed a drainage issue that no one else had brought up. The new Azenco louvered roof is perfect for adjusting shade, and since the project was finished in May, we’ve been using the deck almost every day.

Colorado weather can be brutal, so we were curious how our new deck would hold up after Alta installed it last fall. Between heavy snow, strong sun, high winds, and even a June hailstorm, there hasn’t been any damage at all. Dave Little reached out after the hailstorm just to make sure everything was still in good shape, and it was. From the beginning, Jeff was upfront about which materials would actually last in this climate rather than just look good in a showroom, and following his advice clearly paid off.

After talking to several contractors about our Cherry Creek deck, most of them pushed for a full tear-down. Jon Potter stood out by offering a smarter option, keeping the existing foundation and building on it, which saved us money and just made more sense. The Azenco roof they installed has been rock solid so far, with no leaks and no noise when it operates. It ended up being exactly what we wanted.

We had Alta install our deck last fall, and it’s already been put to the test by Colorado weather. Between snow, sun, strong wind, and even a June hailstorm, it hasn’t shown any damage at all. After the hailstorm, Dave Little checked in to make sure everything was okay, and it held up perfectly. Jeff was honest from the start about which materials would actually last in this climate instead of just looking good in a showroom, and following his recommendations really paid off.

Wasn’t enjoying how exposed our backyard felt, neighbors could see everything, so having Alta Outdoor Living install privacy screens really changed things. Light still comes through, but now we can actually relax without feeling watched. They even added a composite deck, which turned out great. Jon Potter answered all our questions without rushing us, and the whole project finished faster than quoted here in Larkspur.

Jon Potter came up with a smart solution for our sloped property in Black Forest that didn’t need heavy excavation or complicated engineering. The multi-level design ended up looking even better than what we first had in mind. It’s been three months now, and everything is still solid as a rock—even after all the challenges of building on that slope.
Response from the owner 8 months ago
Thank you for your fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that Jon Potter was able to provide a smart solution for your property and that you’re pleased with the multi-level design. It’s great to know that everything has held up well over the past three months despite the challenges. We appreciate your support and look forward to serving you again in the future.

Jeff Potter walked us through different material options without ever pushing the pricey choices. The composite boards they recommended ended up matching our house trim perfectly. They built a deck extension that blends seamlessly with our existing layout—it doesn’t even look like an addition. The whole project was wrapped up in just two weeks, and it gave us exactly what we needed: something functional but low-key.
Response from the owner 9 months ago
Thank you for your wonderful review, Sebastian! We're thrilled to hear that Jeff provided you with helpful options without any pressure and that the composite boards matched your home so well. It's great to know that the deck extension blends seamlessly with your existing layout and meets your needs for functionality and style. We appreciate your recognition of our team's timely completion of the project. If you ever need assistance in the future, we're here to help!

Our corner lot in Surrey Ridge gets blasted by wind from three sides. Dave Little came out and watched how the wind moved through our yard before suggesting anything. The privacy screens and Azenco louvered roof they put in blocks the wind but doesn't feel closed off. Should've done this years ago. Jeff followed up after to show us how everything works.
Response from the owner 8 months ago
Thank you for your wonderful review, Lloyd! We're thrilled to hear that you found our solutions effective in addressing the wind challenges at your corner lot. It's great to know that Dave's approach made a difference and that you're enjoying your new privacy screens and louvered roof. We're also glad Jeff could assist with the follow-up. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we appreciate your kind words!

Didn't think we could swing the Azenco motorized system but Jeff Potter showed us how to break it into phases. Did the deck first, added the roof later. Both times went smooth. Dave Little showed up after a big windstorm just to check everything - didn't charge us. We use the space more than our actual living room now.
Response from the owner 8 months ago
Thank you, Diana, for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that Jeff was able to guide you through the process in phases and that your experience with Dave was so positive. It's great to know that your new space has become such an integral part of your home. We appreciate your support and look forward to serving you again in the future!

We had Alta outdoor living build our deck and add privacy screens last spring. Jeff suggested different composite materials than what we picked originally - explained why they'd hold up better here. He was right. The screens look like they were always part of the house, not tacked on later. It's been a year, nothing's shifted or faded. Their crew cleaned up every day which my partner appreciated since she works from home.
Response from the owner 8 months ago
Thank you for your wonderful review, Queenie! We’re thrilled to hear that you’re pleased with your deck and privacy screens. Jeff's attention to detail and commitment to quality materials are key aspects of our service, and we're glad you noticed. It's great to know that our team’s cleanliness made a positive impact as well. We appreciate your support and look forward to helping with any future projects!

Alta rebuilt our deck after another contractor messed it up last year. Jeff Potter spotted the framing problems right away and Jon Potter redesigned it to work with our sloped yard. The Azenco louvered roof runs smooth, no issues. The crew found a drainage problem halfway through and fixed it without charging us extra. That meant a lot. Been six months and everything still works great.
Response from the owner 8 months ago
Thank you for the wonderful feedback, Kiana! We're thrilled to hear that Jeff and Jon provided effective solutions for your deck and addressed the drainage issue without any extra cost. It's great to know the Azenco louvered roof is working smoothly and that you're satisfied after six months. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we appreciate your support!

We had an Azenco pergola installed in our Cherry Creek backyard, and it's been incredibly functional. It operates smoothly with the remote—no leaks, no strange noises during movement. Jon was great to work with—easy to talk to and never rushed us through any decisions.

Thank you for your fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that you're enjoying your Azenco pergola and that everything is functioning perfectly.

Alta Outdoor Living gave us back our patio by designing a solution that works in sun, wind, and rain. The motorized system is surprisingly quiet—quieter than our garage door—and feels fully integrated rather than something just bolted on. Three seasons later, everything still works perfectly, and we’re no longer stuck with an unusable patio for half the year.
Response from the owner 9 months ago
Thank you for your wonderful feedback, Karen! We're thrilled to hear that our solution has transformed your patio experience, allowing you to enjoy it in any weather. It's great to know that the motorized system operates quietly and seamlessly integrates with your space. We appreciate your support and are glad that everything continues to perform perfectly after three seasons. Thank you for choosing Alta Outdoor Living!

Honestly wasn't sure about spending this much on outdoor improvements. Six months later, it's the best money we've spent on the house. The deck in Larkspur handles our kids, our dog, and Colorado weather without showing wear. Jon Potter's material recommendations were spot on.
Response from the owner 9 months ago
Thank you for your fantastic review, Amber! We're thrilled to hear that you’re so pleased with your outdoor improvements, and it's great to know that our materials are holding up well against both kids and Colorado weather. Jon is dedicated to providing the best recommendations, and it's wonderful that his advice worked out perfectly for you. We appreciate your feedback and hope you continue to enjoy your beautiful deck for years to come!

Had a great experience with Alta Outdoor living. Needed a large pergola built and they came through. Everything from beginning to end was smooth and professional. Dave and Jeff were constantly in communication through the whole process and the finished product was done on time with a solid quality Pergola. I would definitely use them again in the future.

We have really enjoyed working with Alta Outdoor Living on our new deck and outdoor space. They did a great job creating a space that we can use year round. One of the reasons we didn’t spend a lot of time on our old deck was the wind. Now with the motorized screens Alta built, the wind is not a problem anymore. We can drop the screens down with our phones and enjoy hanging out on our gorgeous deck. Their attention to detail is incredible. Dave, Alta’s project manager, went above and beyond throughout the project. He has a lot of knowledge and made us feel comfortable. Jeff’s process with guiding us through the selection and design process was why we went with Alta, but the whole team was great. Oscar is a truly gifted stucco master.
Our home in The Pinery has needed a new deck for too long. Jeff really stood out when vetting contractors. He brought deck and railing samples to our home and answered a lot of questions that we had. They were not the cheapest, but we knew we had made the right decision. What the Alta team brought was a gorgeous finished product and wonderful addition to our home.

Just turned 67 and have been in the construction industry for most of my adult life. From a Master Electrician, to building homes, to the management aspect and now, due to my age and health, minor rebuilds.
I met John, Dave and Jeff by coincidence on the same site while carrying out a rebuild due to water damage. John and Dave where adding a pergola onto the rear of the house.
Being nosey, I ventured out to inspect their work. John and I discussed the pergola and I was impressed with their attention to detail.
It just so happened that my Mother-in-law had a ~1,000SF deck that needed replacing. Due to my condition, and unable to undertake the project myself, I asked for a quote.
I did my due diligence by meeting them and other reputable companies on site. I asked the same pertinent questions to each company but again was most impressed with John, Dave and Jeff from Alta Outdoor Living. They took their time to explain their process, their methodical steps and the materials they recommend - most importantly, why they do what they do.
I need to explain that I've been accused of being too fastidious by past contractors. I'm sick and tired of incompetent contractors who claim they are the best in town but don't know the right end of a hammer to hold.
The reason I chose Alta Outdoor Living for the project was I felt confident that they would build an A+ deck the same way I would have!
The process turned out to be seamless. Their communication and knowledge impeccable! Their suggestions absolutely on point!
My mother-in-law and I were extremely happy with the end product right down to how clean they left the site.
I would highly recommend Alta Outdoor living to anyone looking for a positive and smooth experience.

This is a great company to work with!!! They offer a superior build quality, material selection and craftsmanship. Jeff helped us plan and Jon and Dave built us a beautiful, very solid new deck to replace our 30 year old deck. They have a great work ethic with great attention to detail and take pride in how the finished deck will look. As far as the day to day, they showed up when they said they would, cleaned up at the end of each day and were super friendly and informative each step of the way. We highly recommend Alta Outdoor Living.

Dave Little reached out after the hailstorm just to make sure everything was still in good shape, and it was. From the beginning, Jeff was upfront about which materials would actually last in this climate rather than just look good in a showroom, and following his advice clearly paid off.

After talking to several contractors about our Cherry Creek deck, most of them pushed for a full tear-down. Jon Potter stood out by offering a smarter option, keeping the existing foundation and building on it, which saved us money and just made more sense. The Azenco roof they installed has been rock solid so far, with no leaks and no noise when it operates. It ended up being exactly what we wanted.

We had Alta install our deck last fall, and it’s already been put to the test by Colorado weather. Between snow, sun, strong wind, and even a June hailstorm, it hasn’t shown any damage at all. After the hailstorm, Dave Little checked in to make sure everything was okay, and it held up perfectly. Jeff was honest from the start about which materials would actually last in this climate instead of just looking good in a showroom, and following his recommendations really paid off.

Wasn’t enjoying how exposed our backyard felt, neighbors could see everything, so having Alta Outdoor Living install privacy screens really changed things. Light still comes through, but now we can actually relax without feeling watched. They even added a composite deck, which turned out great. Jon Potter answered all our questions without rushing us, and the whole project finished faster than quoted here in Larkspur.

Jon Potter came up with a smart solution for our sloped property in Black Forest that didn’t need heavy excavation or complicated engineering. The multi-level design ended up looking even better than what we first had in mind. It’s been three months now, and everything is still solid as a rock—even after all the challenges of building on that slope.

Jeff Potter walked us through different material options without ever pushing the pricey choices. The composite boards they recommended ended up matching our house trim perfectly. They built a deck extension that blends seamlessly with our existing layout—it doesn’t even look like an addition. The whole project was wrapped up in just two weeks, and it gave us exactly what we needed: something functional but low-key.

Our corner lot in Surrey Ridge gets blasted by wind from three sides. Dave Little came out and watched how the wind moved through our yard before suggesting anything. The privacy screens and Azenco louvered roof they put in blocks the wind but doesn't feel closed off. Should've done this years ago. Jeff followed up after to show us how everything works.

Thank you for your wonderful review, Lloyd! We're thrilled to hear that you found our solutions effective in addressing the wind challenges at your corner lot. It's great to know that Dave's approach made a difference and that you're enjoying your new privacy screens and louvered roof. We're also glad Jeff could assist with the follow-up.

Didn't think we could swing the Azenco motorized system but Jeff Potter showed us how to break it into phases. Did the deck first, added the roof later. Both times went smooth. Dave Little showed up after a big windstorm just to check everything - didn't charge us. We use the space more than our actual living room now.

Thank you, Diana, for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that Jeff was able to guide you through the process in phases and that your experience with Dave was so positive.

We had Alta outdoor living build our deck and add privacy screens last spring. Jeff suggested different composite materials than what we picked originally - explained why they'd hold up better here. He was right. The screens look like they were always part of the house, not tacked on later. It's been a year, nothing's shifted or faded. Their crew cleaned up every day which my partner appreciated since she works from home.

Thank you for your wonderful review, Queenie! We’re thrilled to hear that you’re pleased with your deck and privacy screens.

Alta rebuilt our deck after another contractor messed it up last year. Jeff Potter spotted the framing problems right away and Jon Potter redesigned it to work with our sloped yard. The Azenco louvered roof runs smooth, no issues. The crew found a drainage problem halfway through and fixed it without charging us extra. That meant a lot. Been six months and everything still works great.

Thank you for the wonderful feedback, Kiana! We're thrilled to hear that Jeff and Jon provided effective solutions for your deck and addressed the drainage issue without any extra cost. It's great to know the Azenco louvered roof is working smoothly and that you're satisfied after six months. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we appreciate your support!

We had an Azenco pergola installed in our Cherry Creek backyard, and it's been incredibly functional. It operates smoothly with the remote—no leaks, no strange noises during movement. Jon was great to work with—easy to talk to and never rushed us through any decisions.

Alta Outdoor Living gave us back our patio by designing a solution that works in sun, wind, and rain. The motorized system is surprisingly quiet—quieter than our garage door—and feels fully integrated rather than something just bolted on. Three seasons later, everything still works perfectly, and we’re no longer stuck with an unusable patio for half the year.

Thank you for your wonderful feedback, Karen! We're thrilled to hear that our solution has transformed your patio experience, allowing you to enjoy it in any weather. It's great to know that the motorized system operates quietly and seamlessly integrates with your space. We appreciate your support and are glad that everything continues to perform perfectly after three seasons. Thank you for choosing Alta Outdoor Living!

Honestly wasn't sure about spending this much on outdoor improvements. Six months later, it's the best money we've spent on the house. The deck in Larkspur handles our kids, our dog, and Colorado weather without showing wear. Jon Potter's material recommendations were spot on.

Thank you for your fantastic review, Amber! We're thrilled to hear that you’re so pleased with your outdoor improvements, and it's great to know that our materials are holding up well against both kids and Colorado weather. Jon is dedicated to providing the best recommendations, and it's wonderful that his advice worked out perfectly for you. We appreciate your feedback and hope you continue to enjoy your beautiful deck for years to come!

Had a great experience with Alta Outdoor living. Needed a large pergola built and they came through. Everything from beginning to end was smooth and professional. Dave and Jeff were constantly in communication through the whole process and the finished product was done on time with a solid quality Pergola. I would definitely use them again in the future.

We have really enjoyed working with Alta Outdoor Living on our new deck and outdoor space. They did a great job creating a space that we can use year round. One of the reasons we didn’t spend a lot of time on our old deck was the wind. Now with the motorized screens Alta built, the wind is not a problem anymore. We can drop the screens down with our phones and enjoy hanging out on our gorgeous deck. Their attention to detail is incredible. Dave, Alta’s project manager, went above and beyond throughout the project. He has a lot of knowledge and made us feel comfortable. Jeff’s process with guiding us through the selection and design process was why we went with Alta, but the whole team was great. Oscar is a truly gifted stucco master.
Our home in The Pinery has needed a new deck for too long. Jeff really stood out when vetting contractors. He brought deck and railing samples to our home and answered a lot of questions that we had. They were not the cheapest, but we knew we had made the right decision. What the Alta team brought was a gorgeous finished product and wonderful addition to our home.

Just turned 67 and have been in the construction industry for most of my adult life. From a Master Electrician, to building homes, to the management aspect and now, due to my age and health, minor rebuilds.
I met John, Dave and Jeff by coincidence on the same site while carrying out a rebuild due to water damage. John and Dave where adding a pergola onto the rear of the house.
Being nosey, I ventured out to inspect their work. John and I discussed the pergola and I was impressed with their attention to detail.
It just so happened that my Mother-in-law had a ~1,000SF deck that needed replacing. Due to my condition, and unable to undertake the project myself, I asked for a quote.
I did my due diligence by meeting them and other reputable companies on site. I asked the same pertinent questions to each company but again was most impressed with John, Dave and Jeff from Alta Outdoor Living. They took their time to explain their process, their methodical steps and the materials they recommend - most importantly, why they do what they do.
I need to explain that I've been accused of being too fastidious by past contractors. I'm sick and tired of incompetent contractors who claim they are the best in town but don't know the right end of a hammer to hold.
The reason I chose Alta Outdoor Living for the project was I felt confident that they would build an A+ deck the same way I would have!
The process turned out to be seamless. Their communication and knowledge impeccable! Their suggestions absolutely on point!
My mother-in-law and I were extremely happy with the end product right down to how clean they left the site.
I would highly recommend Alta Outdoor living to anyone looking for a positive and smooth experience.

This is a great company to work with!!! They offer a superior build quality, material selection and craftsmanship. Jeff helped us plan and Jon and Dave built us a beautiful, very solid new deck to replace our 30 year old deck. They have a great work ethic with great attention to detail and take pride in how the finished deck will look. As far as the day to day, they showed up when they said they would, cleaned up at the end of each day and were super friendly and informative each step of the way. We highly recommend Alta Outdoor Living.
