Restore safety and appearance to aging or damaged decks. We assess structural integrity, replace rotted boards, reinforce failing posts and joists, and restore your deck to a solid, safe condition without the cost of a full replacement.

Why Our Customers Choose Us
Protection of Your Investment
Minnesota winters are hard on outdoor structures. Freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow loads, and moisture all take a toll on decks that aren't built or maintained properly. Professional installation using the right materials and construction methods protects your home from structural damage and prevents costly problems down the road.
Increased Property Value and Curb Appeal
A well-built deck is one of the highest-return home improvements available to Minnesota homeowners. Clean design, quality materials, and professional craftsmanship create an outdoor space that enhances the look of your home and adds measurable value when it comes time to sell.
Common Deck Issues in the Area
Rotted decking boards, failing fasteners, unstable ledger connections, and deteriorating posts are common problems in the Twin Cities. Years of weather exposure compound quickly when small issues go unaddressed. Early assessment and timely repair extend deck life and prevent more expensive fixes.
Reliable Local Service
Based in Andover and serving the Twin Cities area since 2005, Construction Con Dios brings local knowledge of Minnesota building codes, permit requirements, and seasonal challenges to every project. Homeowners get responsive communication, honest recommendations, and consistent quality. No subcontracting, no surprises.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my deck needs repair or full replacement?
Signs like widespread rot, soft or spongy boards, loose or leaning posts, and failing ledger connections often point toward replacement. Isolated damage (a few bad boards or a worn railing) is usually a good candidate for repair.
How much does it cost to build or replace a deck?
Cost depends on size, materials, design complexity, and site conditions. We provide free, detailed estimates so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins. Visit our Pricing page for general guidance.
Do I need a permit to build a deck in Minnesota?
In most Minnesota cities and townships, a building permit is required for new deck construction and major replacements. We handle permit coordination as part of the project process.
What is the best decking material for Minnesota's climate?
Composite materials like Trex perform exceptionally well in Minnesota because they resist moisture, freeze-thaw cycling, and UV fading. Pressure-treated wood is a cost-effective and durable option when properly maintained. We can walk you through the pros and cons of each material for your specific project.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Construction Con Dios is a licensed Minnesota Residential Contractor (License No. BC 657407) and is fully insured. Every project is completed to code with documentation available upon request.
When is the best time to build a deck in Minnesota?
Late spring through early fall is the most popular window, but we begin planning and booking projects in the winter. Starting early ensures you’re scheduled for the season and can enjoy your deck all summer long.
We Handle Permits When Required
Many deck installation projects in Minnesota require city permits and inspections. When needed, we manage the paperwork, code compliance, and scheduling to keep your project moving smoothly and fully compliant.
Permit Applications Submitted
We prepare and submit all required documentation to the appropriate city or county office, ensuring accuracy and completeness from the start.
Code-Compliant Construction
Our team builds to Minnesota residential building code standards, giving you peace of mind that your new deck is structurally sound and inspection-ready.
Inspection Coordination
We schedule and coordinate required inspections so you don’t have to navigate the process yourself.

We were lucky to find Ben and his team to build our new deck. Ben was an exceptional communicator from the get go with a keen on details. What impressed me most about working with Ben was his concern for getting every part of the project done right and ensuring I was satisfied with the progress. We worked his front office staff, Jessica, to coordinate payments and she was great. We had four other team members on site to build the deck, and all of them were very professional and worked hard. I received over a half Dozen quotes for my deck and Ben’s pricing came in average - I ultimately chose Ben and his team for his obvious attention to detail and thorough breakdown of pricing and process. I would chose Ben and this team again and highly recommend to anyone seeking a builder. (I will edit this post later with finished pictures.)Posted on Google Terence PosterickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ben was great to work with because he is passionate about decks and made us feel comfortable with design decisions. All the people I worked with from Construction Con Dios were very professional and detail oriented. They stayed on task all day - as opposed to taking phone calls.Posted on Google Nick JohnsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They gave an honest assessment of the condition of my deck and what we needed to do to fix it. Easy to work with and we were able to stay under our budget. Highly recommend.Posted on Google Rebecca McConnellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was really great working with Ben and his crew! I had a vision and they helped me bring it to life perfectly. There is no doubt this deck will stand the test of time. We enjoyed having you guys here working as well, they accommodated nosey children and dogs with ease. Thank you for created our new favorite space for our family!Posted on Google Paul BaertschiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We love our new deck. Ben and crew are easy to work with and they have great attention to detail. We could not be more pleased!!Posted on Google Lorena BueltelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ben and his team were great! They replaced our deck last year and knew we had a deadline for our son's graduation party. They stayed late several days leading up to the deadline, including the night before. Everyone who attended the party loved the craftsmanship and attention to detail. 10/10 would definitely recommend!Posted on Google Tim VueTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Construction Con Dios LLC is top notch. Ben, Dave, Nikko and Dalton did a great job with our deck. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and very professional. The deck we wanted turned out better than we imagined and I don't think anyone else could've done a better job. Our neighbors even complimented on their craftsmanship and how detailed oriented they were to making sure everything was sealed properly to how the deck was tucked into the house to make it look like it's an extension of the house. We recommend them for your needs and will definitely be calling them back for our future projects.Posted on Google LaVella SchillingerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just wanted to give a shout out to Ben and his crew for putting on my new deck railing, deck stairs, and facia. It feels sturdy and blends in well with the existing floor, I am glad I added the picture frame and drink rail as well. I maybe should have added a little design in the floor. Ben you might need to show more pics of that.? If you zoom in close on the last pic, you can see the entire deck. Thanks again I love it.Posted on Google Traci KamishTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ben and his team just finished our deck and we are so happy with the finished product. From start to finish, this was such a great experience. Not only were they all professional, they were also very friendly. Jessica designed the perfect deck, she listened to what we wanted and gave us everything and more. Everything was explained to us throughout the full process, in clear detail, so we were all on the same page. At the end of the project, they came to feel more like friends than just some random people building our deck (a deck that is so well built, it'll last 30+ year). We will definitely use Ben and his team again in the future if we do any more projects. Thank you for such a positive experience.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
