Premium Deck Design and Installation for the Chicago Suburbs

Since 1982, Erdmann Outdoor Living has helped homeowners throughout Arlington Heights and the Northwest Chicago suburbs transform their backyards into beautiful, functional spaces. Our team’s specialty is composite deck construction using TimberTech’s premium maintenance‑free decking materials - an option that combines natural wood aesthetics with durability that stands the test of time.

As a TimberTech Platinum Pro Certified contractor, we are among a select group trained to design and install their full product line. From initial design to the final walkthrough, we handle every detail, so you can focus on enjoying your new deck rather than worrying about upkeep.

Whether you’re starting with a blank slate or replacing an aging wood deck, our team will guide you through every step, from planning layouts that will maximize your outdoor living space to choosing your decking accessories.

Why Choose Composite Decking?

Traditional wood decks can be charming at first, but they demand constant sanding, staining, and sealing. TimberTech’s advanced composite and PVC decking lines eliminate that hassle - delivering the warmth of wood without all the upkeep.

Composite decking offers:

• Fade‑ and stain‑resistant performance for lasting color and beauty

• Comfortable, slip‑resistant surfaces ideal for barefoot summers and busy family gatherings

• Moisture resistance and pest protection that prevents rot and splintering

• A wide palette of colors and finishes, from modern grays to classic wood tones

TimberTech’s industry‑leading warranties (including 50‑years of fade and stain coverage) mean your deck will look just as good decades from now as the day it’s installed.

The Erdmann Deck Design + Build Experience

At Erdmann, we believe every great deck starts with a thoughtful plan. That’s why we begin each project with a free on‑site consultation. Our team walks your property, listens to your goals, and takes precise measurements to ensure a seamless fit.
