Build your own deck with professionally engineered, ready-to-assemble wood and composite deck kits, delivered curbside to homes across Riverview and southern Hillsborough County. Framing, decking, Tuff Block footings and hardware are included, so a drill is the only tool you need.
Many Riverview homes sit in newer subdivisions where a backyard deck is one of the first upgrades on the list. Before you search “deck builders near me,” compare the three ways to get a new deck, from hiring a deck installer to assembling a DIY deck kit, and see which fits your budget, HOA rules and timeline.
A licensed deck contractor manages design, permits, HOA submittals, footings, framing and cleanup. It suits elevated, attached or lanai-connected decks. Compare written quotes for the same scope and verify each contractor’s Florida DBPR license.
Source lumber, hardware and decking yourself, then work out the design, spans, cuts and layout. It suits experienced builders with a full set of tools and the time to work around Florida weather.
Smart ChoiceProfessionally engineered DIY deck kits in 15 wood and 9 composite sizes, delivered to your Riverview home with labeled components, footings and hardware. Build it yourself with a drill or hire local help to assemble it.
I am far from a handyman but the wife wanted a deck in the backyard and I couldn’t see myself dishing out $20,000 for someone to come build it for us. I ended up seeing an ad for this company and was blown away by the price and ease of install. 2 of our neighbours ended up ordering as well!

Snow never enters the picture in Riverview. What matters is hurricane-season wind, summer storms that can raise water levels along the Alafia River, strong sun and steady humidity. Plan for all four before choosing decking materials and a deck foundation.
Built for year-round Riverview backyardsHurricane season runs June 1 to November 30. Before a storm, clear the deck of furniture and planters, and ask Hillsborough County what anchoring it expects for your deck.
Parts of Riverview near the Alafia River and Tampa Bay are mapped flood zones. Check your FEMA flood zone early, since the county may require floodplain review before approving a deck.
Warm, damp air invites termites and mildew. Pressure-treated framing helps; keep soil and mulch away from posts and leave room for airflow under the deck.
Seal pressure-treated wood every one to two years, or choose composite decking to skip staining entirely.

Kits assemble 15–17 inches off the ground. Add steps, railings or a longer post kit with bracing for a raised deck, or ask about a size that isn’t listed. Our deck specialists will help you plan the right layout for your yard.
An A-DIY deck may be installed over sloped or uneven ground by adjusting the supporting post heights to establish a level deck surface.
Supported configurations may be elevated to approximately 40 inches using the appropriate posts, foundations and bracing.
Depending on the height and configuration, the project may also require:
Depending on the property, configuration and local approval, suitable systems may include:
Riverview is unincorporated, so Hillsborough County, not a city, reviews deck permits here. Most decks need one, and lots near the Alafia River or the bay may need floodplain review too. Use the quick check, then confirm with Hillsborough County Development Services.
Rule of thumb: in Riverview, plan on a county building permit for any deck, plus HOA approval where your community requires it.
General guidance for Riverview-area decks
*Riverview decks generally aren’t exempt: the Florida Building Code’s permit-exempt list doesn’t include decks, and Hillsborough County’s under-$7,500 exemption excludes structural work and any property in a flood hazard area. Setbacks and HOA rules still apply.
Hillsborough CountyRiverview, Gibsonton, Apollo Beach and Ruskin are unincorporated, so permits are filed with Hillsborough County Development Services through the HillsGovHub portal.
FEMA flood zonesProperties partly or fully in a mapped flood hazard area may need extra review, and they don’t qualify for the state’s under-$7,500 permit exemption.
FloridaAll Florida counties enforce the Florida Building Code, currently the 8th Edition (2023), with the 9th Edition (2026) set to take effect at the turn of the year. Footing, framing and guard rules are the same statewide.
Look up your FEMA flood zone, setbacks and HOA approval requirements.
Show the deck’s location, size, height and setbacks. A-DIY engineering diagrams can help.
File your permit application online with Hillsborough County Development Services.
Book the inspections your permit requires, then enjoy the deck.
Our deck specialists can help you plan size, height and placement before you apply.
Yes. Engineering diagrams for applicable A-DIY configurations show dimensions, structural layout, beam and joist sizes and post locations to support your application. Your department may still ask for a survey, site plan or stamped documents.
Requirements change and can differ between neighboring municipalities. Always confirm current rules with your local building department before you build.
