Custom Deck Construction Services in Elm Springs, AR
Elm Springs is a growing community straddling the Washington–Benton county line just west of Springdale. JHG Contracting LLC has been the family-owned deck building company NWA homeowners recommend to each other since 2008, and we bring that same word-of-mouth reputation to every Elm Springs project we take on.
Elm Springs sits immediately west of Springdale and unusually straddles the line between Washington and Benton counties. It took its name from a large spring near the original 1840s town site, and it's been one of the faster-growing small cities in the region — meaning lots of new homeowners looking to finish off a new build with a quality deck.
Because Elm Springs spans two counties, permitting can occasionally have a wrinkle depending on exactly where your property falls. We handle that as part of the build, so you don't have to figure out which jurisdiction your Elm Springs deck permit runs through — we do. From our Fayetteville base, Elm Springs sits about 14 miles north — well within our standard service area with no travel surcharge.
Whether it's a fresh pressure-treated wood deck, a low-upkeep TimberTech or Trex composite, a pergola or covered porch, or repairs to extend the life of your current deck, our own crew owns the whole Elm Springs project from permitting to the final walkthrough. We don't subcontract Elm Springs builds.

Building Across the County Line in Elm Springs
Elm Springs sits in the transition zone between the Boston Mountains to the south and the flatter Springfield Plateau to the north, so its terrain is gentler than the mountain towns but still rarely dead level. Most Elm Springs decks we build are attached to newer homes on graded lots, where the priority is a clean, generous outdoor space that matches a recently finished house.
The two-county geography is the detail that makes Elm Springs unique among our service areas. Whether your address falls on the Washington or Benton County side, the climate and build approach are the same — but the paperwork can differ, and we make sure your Elm Springs permit goes through the right office before we break ground.

Does JHG Contracting LLC travel to Elm Springs from Fayetteville?
Yes. Elm Springs sits about 14 miles north of our Fayetteville base — comfortably inside our service area, so there's no travel surcharge on Elm Springs projects. We regularly work in Elm Springs and neighboring cities including Springdale, Tontitown. We never subcontract Elm Springs builds; the same crew, with our own equipment and materials, handles everything from estimate to finished deck.
Do I need a permit to build a deck in Elm Springs, AR?
Usually, yes. For Elm Springs projects, permits typically apply to house-attached decks, decks over 30 inches high, and roofed structures like covered porches or pergolas. Permits for Elm Springs are handled through the City of Elm Springs (which spans Washington and Benton counties). Permitting is included on every Elm Springs build: we pull it, line up inspections, and deal with the building department directly on your behalf.
What kind of deck works best for homes in Elm Springs?
Elm Springs homes are largely newer builds on gently graded lots, so attached entertaining decks that match a recently finished house are the common request. Composite and cedar both perform well in the area's plateau-edge climate. Across the board, composite decking (TimberTech or Trex) suits homeowners who don't want to sand, seal, or stain every year, pressure-treated southern yellow pine remains the most affordable option with regular upkeep, and cedar sits in between. JHG Contracting LLC talks through the trade-offs at your free on-site estimate, matched to your Elm Springs home, lot, and budget.
How long does it take to build a custom deck in Elm Springs?
For most Elm Springs homeowners, the actual build takes one to two weeks of on-site work. After the no-cost on-site estimate, expect a full written proposal within two days. Scheduling varies by season — spring and summer book fastest across NWA, so fall and winter Elm Springs builds typically wait less and may qualify for off-season savings. Before work starts, we walk you through the full schedule and honor it through completion.
