Turn your backyard into an outdoor living space you actually love. At Excellence in Construction, we design and build custom decks and patios for Kansas City homeowners who want more from their outdoor space — whether that’s a place to entertain, unwind, or add real value to their home.
We’ve been building and remodeling homes across the Kansas City metro since 2002, and we bring the same engineering-level precision and high-quality craftsmanship to every outdoor project that we do to every kitchen remodel, bathroom renovation, and home addition we build.
Kansas City summers are made for being outside. A professionally built deck or patio extends your living space, improves your home’s curb appeal, and gives your family a place to gather year after year. At Excellence in Construction, we handle every aspect of the project — from design and material selection all the way through permits and final build.
Our founder Sean DeSouza holds a B.S. in Engineering from Pittsburg State University. That engineering background means every deck and patio we build is not just beautiful — it’s structurally sound, properly permitted, and built to withstand Kansas City’s climate for decades.

We design and build a full range of outdoor living structures, including:
Traditional wood decks built with pressure-treated lumber or premium hardwoods. We design for your exact yard layout, home entry points, and intended use — whether ground-level or elevated.
Low-maintenance, long-lasting composite decking in a variety of colors and finishes. Ideal for Kansas City homeowners who want the look of wood without the upkeep.
Durable, versatile concrete patios that can be stamped, stained, or finished to match your home’s style. Perfect for entertainment areas, grilling stations, or relaxing spaces.
Natural stone or concrete paver patios that add texture, character, and lasting value to your outdoor space. We design paver layouts that complement your home’s exterior and landscaping.
For homes with uneven terrain or larger yard spaces, multi-level decks create distinct zones for dining, lounging, and entertaining — all flowing naturally from your home.
Extend the use of your outdoor space into the shoulder seasons with a covered deck or pergola addition. We integrate these seamlessly into the deck structure for a cohesive, polished result. For homeowners looking to go further, this pairs well with our home additions work.
Full outdoor living space builds including built-in seating, lighting integration, steps, railings, and more. We design spaces meant to be used and enjoyed — not just looked at. If you’re also updating the inside of your home, explore our full home remodeling service to tackle everything at once.
At Excellence in Construction, we don’t treat outdoor projects as an afterthought. We bring the same attention to detail to your deck or patio as we do to a full kitchen remodel or a basement renovation — because it’s still your home, and it deserves to be done right.
