Transformations Built to Endure
Every project we complete is a reflection of our core values—craftsmanship, precision, and durability. From South Lake Tahoe’s alpine conditions to the sun-baked neighborhoods of El Dorado Hills, each exterior tells the story of Apex Exteriors’ commitment to excellence.
Explore our collection of siding, deck, window, door, and landscaping projects to see how thoughtful design and quality installation come together to enhance curb appeal and long-term performance.
Whether it’s a full re-side in Placerville, a custom deck overlooking Tahoe, or a complete exterior refresh in Camino, our work stands up to Sierra weather and time itself.
Built local. Built right. Built to last.
Forest View Deck with Cable Rail
Designed for uninterrupted views, this composite deck uses a tensioned stainless-steel cable railing system supported by powder-coated posts. The cool-toned decking complements the surrounding forest, delivering a modern aesthetic with natural harmony. Built for mountain weather conditions, the structure ensures drainage, slip resistance, and long-term stability. The slimline railing keeps the focus on the landscape while maintaining full safety compliance. This project exemplifies minimalist design that emphasizes experience—letting the outdoors take center stage.
Tiered Cedar/Redwood Porch with Grand Entry Steps
A warm, welcoming front porch rebuilt in tiered platforms that double as casual seating and a generous entry path. We used select cedar/redwood boards for rich color and natural weather resistance, fastened with corrosion-resistant screws and picture-framed edges for crisp lines. The low risers and deep treads make access comfortable, while careful framing and ledger flashing help manage moisture where the deck meets the home. This design balances craftsmanship with everyday practicality—expanding usable space, elevating curb appeal, and creating a durable landing zone that stands up to Sierra seasons without the upkeep of traditional painted porches.
Raised Backyard Entertainment Deck
A backyard deck engineered for both form and stability, featuring a treated lumber substructure, composite decking, and black baluster railings. The raised design expands usable space while providing shade and airflow beneath the platform. The gravel underlayment improves drainage and maintenance access. This project illustrates structural reliability paired with warm tones and balanced proportions. It’s a practical yet stylish addition that enhances outdoor living areas and connects seamlessly with the home’s architecture—ideal for gatherings, dining, or peaceful lounging.
Deer-Resistant Raised Garden with Fenced Perimeter
This project organizes a productive garden into clean, masonry raised beds with wide, level walking lanes for easy access and maintenance. The perimeter fence uses sturdy wood posts and welded-wire panels to keep deer and small animals out while preserving the open, park-like view. We graded and compacted the pathways for drainage and wheelbarrow-friendly movement, then leveled each bed for even watering and tidy edges. The layout is scalable—additional beds or a gated entry can be added later without rework. It’s a low-maintenance, durable solution that looks intentional and keeps the focus on healthy, high-yield planting.
Elevated Entry Deck & Staircase Rebuild
A full staircase rebuild featuring pressure-treated framing and hand-finished natural wood treads. The modern black steel railing adds a clean, secure touch that contrasts beautifully with the home’s sage siding. The structure was reinforced for long-term durability, with precision-cut stringers and custom anchoring to concrete. This project showcases both craftsmanship and structural expertise—balancing curb appeal with safety. The finished look creates a welcoming, durable entry point built to handle years of use and weather exposure in the Sierra foothills.
Mountain Cabin Deck Expansion
This multi-level mountain deck addition was crafted for strength, stability, and aesthetic cohesion with the cabin’s rustic exterior. Built with pressure-treated framing and composite surfacing, it provides maintenance-free performance even in heavy snow and moisture conditions. The cable railing preserves sweeping forest views, while reinforced post brackets and footings ensure long-term resilience on uneven terrain. This project combines engineering precision with mountain character—creating a timeless outdoor platform for relaxation and scenic appreciation.
Canyon-View Composite Deck with Cable Railing
Built to showcase the landscape, this deck pairs cool-gray composite boards with a slim, stainless cable railing system on powder-coated posts. The result is unobstructed views and a clean, modern aesthetic that requires minimal maintenance. The framing and footings are engineered for wind and seasonal movement on a hillside site, while board layout and edge details keep water shedding correctly and surfaces comfortable underfoot. Durable materials resist fading and splintering, making this space ideal for everyday use and entertaining. It’s a perfect blend of resilience and design—letting the horizon take center stage while the structure quietly does its job.
Multi-Level Hillside Deck & Stair System
This complex, stacked-landing deck solves challenging grade changes while adding access to multiple outdoor rooms to the home. Composite decking provides long-term durability, and the cable-rail guard system preserves sightlines between levels. Strategic landings create natural gathering spots and safe transitions, with framing tied back to the structure for rigidity and code-compliant rails and stairs throughout. The geometry maximizes usable square footage on a tight footprint and improves circulation to upper and lower doors. It’s a showcase of precise layout, strong connections, and weather-ready materials—turning a steep slope into a versatile, low-maintenance extension of the living space.
Composite Deck with Integrated Step Lighting
This deck highlights the warmth and performance of composite materials paired with built-in step lighting for both safety and ambiance. The deck boards run on a diagonal layout to create a subtle sense of movement and elegance. Hidden fasteners ensure a seamless look while the lighting adds nighttime visibility without harsh glare. Designed for low maintenance and long life, this project demonstrates modern design integration where function meets comfort. Ideal for outdoor relaxation or entertaining, it transforms any exterior into a polished living space.
