In Kansas, your deck isn’t just where you grill — it’s where life happens. Whether you’re watching the kids play, hosting Sunday brunch, or sipping wine at sunset, a well-designed deck can completely transform your lifestyle.

What’s Trending in Wichita:

  • Multi-level decks that separate cooking, lounging, and dining
  • Built-in benches and planter boxes for efficiency and style
  • Cable or glass railing systems for a clean, modern look
  • Under-deck drainage systems to create usable space below
  • Composite materials like Trex or Fiberon that resist rot, warping, and fading



At B&B Builders, we create decks that feel like an organic extension of your home. We design around your yard’s shape, your privacy needs, and the way you live.

Why Homeowners Trust Us:

Our team handles everything from permitting to final polish — including:

  • Concrete piers and footings
  • Custom staircases and railing installation
  • Structural engineering for Kansas wind loads


Decks are one of the most requested features in Wichita’s custom homes, and for good reason. They increase usable living space, offer amazing views, and provide the perfect backdrop for outdoor entertaining.


At B&B Builders, our deck solutions can be standalone or seamlessly connected to your patio or sunroom. We help homeowners choose materials that fit their lifestyle and budget while standing up to Kansas winds and temperature swings.


Let us design a space where you can live, laugh, and lounge all year long.

Don’t Forget the View

Even if you’re not sitting on a mountainside, the layout of your outdoor space should frame what’s beautiful. Whether it’s your landscaping, your pool, or a sunset — we design to direct the eye.

We also factor in privacy, wind, sunlight, and flow, so every angle is functional and photogenic.

Metal Building
By Stan Stiverson December 4, 2025
Winter is here — is your building ready for the snow? Metal buildings are one of the strongest, most reliable options for Kansas winters. They’re engineered for heavy snow loads, shed snow easily, and don’t warp or rot like wood. If you’re thinking about a shop, garage, or storage building, now is the perfect time.
