A worn-out, wobbly, or awkward deck can make your backyard feel like wasted space, especially when all you want is a better spot to grill, relax, or sit outside without wondering which board looks suspicious. Balcony Brothers LLC builds decks in and around Eau Claire, WI, for homeowners who want outdoor space that feels safer, better planned, and more useful for everyday life. From simple backyard upgrades to custom layouts with wood, metal, aluminum, composite, or mineral-based materials, our team helps turn rough ideas into a deck that fits the home.
Balcony Brothers LLC is a licensed and insured window installation service and deck builder based in Eau Claire, WI. Our company specializes in custom deck design and installation, including metal, wood, aluminum, composite, and mineral-based decking. We also work with TimberTech products, are Deckorators-certified, and offer a 25-year labor warranty on qualifying builds. With three generations of trade experience behind us, we bring real deck construction know-how to outdoor living projects that need more than a quick weekend patch.
A wobbly deck can turn your backyard from relaxing to "watch your step" pretty quickly. We usually see this happen when railings shake, stairs feel loose, boards flex underfoot, or the whole structure moves more than it should.
The cause often comes from worn framing, loose or rusted fasteners, shifting posts, settling footings, moisture damage, or years of Wisconsin weather working on the structure. Snow, rain, humidity, and freeze-thaw cycles can all wear down your deck over time, especially if older materials have already begun to break down.
Our process starts with a thorough review of your deck's structure, including posts, beams, joists, ledger board, stairs, railings, deck boards, and footings. From there, we explain whether targeted repairs make sense or whether rebuilding the deck would be the smarter long-term move.
When replacement is the better path, our team helps plan a deck that fits your home and yard and reflects how you'll actually use it. That may include wood, metal, aluminum, composite decking, mineral-based decking, or TimberTech products, depending on your desired look, maintenance needs, and long-term goals.
The result is a deck that feels steady, looks good, and gives your backyard a real job again. Instead of tiptoeing around soft spots or warning guests about that one sketchy stair, you get a space made for grilling, sitting, gathering, and enjoying the yard.
From composite and mineral-based builds to custom wood and metal structures, we work with a wide range of materials and can build just about anything you have in mind.
Aluminum is a great option for those who want something lightweight, rust-resistant, and built to handle whatever Wisconsin winters throw at it. Our team installs aluminum decks that hold up beautifully over time with very little upkeep required on your end. For low-maintenance durability, it's hard to beat aluminum as a decking material.
As a Deckorators-certified installer, we know composite and mineral-based deck building inside and out. Deckorators products are engineered for long-term performance, and a 25-year labor warranty backs every deck we build. The combination of quality materials and certified installation means you're getting a deck that's built to last and covered if something goes wrong.
Metal decks are a solid choice when strength and longevity are the top priorities, and they can be designed to look great while still delivering serious structural performance. Our crew has experience building metal decks for a range of residential applications, so this isn't new territory for us.
TimberTech is a premier name in high-performance, low-maintenance alternative decking and outdoor living products, and our team is proud to offer its products to homeowners throughout the Eau Claire area. These boards are designed to resist fading, staining, and scratching, so your deck keeps looking sharp year after year with minimal work on your part. If you want a beautiful outdoor space that doesn't turn into a weekend project every spring, TimberTech is a smart choice.
There's a reason wood has been the go-to decking material for generations. Our team builds wood decks that are properly structured, well finished, and built to withstand real-world use over time. For homeowners who love the classic look and feel of natural wood, we'll help you choose the right species and finish to get the most out of the material.
Some homeowners already know exactly what they want, and others just have a general idea they'd like to bring to life. Either way, our team can work with you to build something tailored to your space, your lifestyle, and your budget. If you can describe it, there's a pretty good chance we can figure out how to build it.
A window project goes more smoothly when someone explains what's happening before anything gets torn out. We install windows for new construction, replace outdated units, and handle repairs when that's the better route.
A door that sticks, leaks air, or looks worn out can turn into one of those little daily annoyances that never really feels like a little one. We install Andersen and ProVia doors, including front doors, entry doors, gliding doors, French patio doors, and patio doors, in the styles and colors homeowners want.
A solid roof helps keep the rest of the house from becoming a much bigger project later. Our roofing work includes shingles, metal roofs, new construction, and service calls for leaks, storm issues, aging materials, or anything else that needs a trained set of eyes.
The outside of a house has a tough job, especially in Wisconsin weather. Our siding services include vinyl, James Hardie, engineered smart siding, and board and batten, giving you plenty of options for both protection and curb appeal.
Some homes have good bones but need a better layout, fresher finishes, or rooms that finally match how the family lives. We offer remodeling for kitchens, bathrooms, whole spaces, demo, framing, and electrical work.

A deck builder can walk you through wood, metal, aluminum, composite, and mineral-based decking options based on how you'll use your new deck. In Wisconsin, many homeowners choose low-maintenance products because snow, rain, sun, and freeze-thaw cycles can be tough on outdoor materials.
Deck building timelines depend on the size, layout, materials, permitting requirements, and site conditions. A simple deck may move faster, while custom decks with stairs, railings, metal framing, or composite products usually take more planning and build time.
A professional deck builder typically helps with layout, material selection, framing, decking, railings, stairs, and final cleanup. The goal is to build decks that feel sturdy, fit the home, and make the outdoor space easier to use.
Soft boards, loose railings, wobbly stairs, rusted fasteners, sagging framing, and large cracks can all point to a deck that needs serious attention. If the structure feels unsafe or keeps needing patchwork, replacement may be the smarter long-term choice.
Wood, aluminum, metal, composite, mineral-based decking, TimberTech products, and Deckorators products can all work well depending on the homeowner's goals. Some people like the natural look of wood, while others prefer lower-maintenance decks that can handle Wisconsin weather with less upkeep.
