Homeowners in Conover have plenty of contractor choices, but most of them are crews that bounce between cities and never see the same project twice. We're different. The Foothills Deck Company is owner-supervised on every Conover job, with 25 years of combined home construction and deck building experience behind every estimate, every cut, and every fastener.
Conover homes are a solid mix of ranch-style houses and newer two-story family builds in planned communities, with some acreage properties mixed in. Most deck work here is replacements and porch additions on mid-range homes, and the I-40 access makes the city a convenient hub for foothill homeowners.
Conover shares the same humid subtropical climate as Hickory — hot summers and freeze-thaw winter cycles that wear on natural wood without proper finishing. The Foothills Deck Company has been serving the NC Foothills since 2023, and Conover is part of our core service map — only 5 miles east of our Hickory base, well within our standard territory at no travel surcharge. Conover sits in Catawba County, near Conover Station and the I-40 corridor.

From classic wood decks and modern composite builds to pergolas, covered porches, and lakefront docks — every Conover project gets the same owner-supervised attention.
Pressure-treated southern yellow pine, cedar, and tropical hardwoods — built to handle North Carolina's humidity and freeze-thaw cycles when properly finished and maintained. The classic deck choice with a natural look that ages gracefully.
Composite decking from Armadillo, Trex, and other premium brands — engineered to resist moisture, fading, and insects without annual sealing or staining. The premier low-maintenance choice for NC Foothills homeowners who'd rather use their deck than refinish it.
Structural deck repairs, board replacements, railing upgrades, and full deck restoration. Whether your existing deck has rot, loose boards, or aging railings, we'll assess what's salvageable and give you straight advice on repair vs. replacement.

Conover homes are a solid mix of ranch-style houses and newer two-story family builds in planned communities, with some acreage properties mixed in. Most deck work here is replacements and porch additions on mid-range homes, and the I-40 access makes the city a convenient hub for foothill homeowners. Conover shares the same humid subtropical climate as Hickory — hot summers and freeze-thaw winter cycles that wear on natural wood without proper finishing. For most Conover projects we recommend matching the deck materials to the home's existing architecture and the homeowner's maintenance preferences — pressure-treated wood for budget-driven builds with proper sealing, cedar for a middle-ground natural look, and composite (Armadillo or Trex) for low-maintenance long-term value. We walk through the trade-offs during the free estimate.
Most residential deck projects in Conover are completed in 1 to 2 weeks from the start of construction. After your initial free on-site estimate, you receive a detailed written proposal within 48 hours.

We communicate the full timeline before work begins.
