Since 2018


The Stoddard Building Group designs and builds high-quality outdoor living spaces for homeowners in Colorado Springs, Monument, Black Forest and Peyton. Decks, pergolas, and the covered spaces that make a Colorado backyard usable nine months of the year.

We are a small crew by choice. Collin is on every job. And because we replace a lot of other people’s work, we build to the part most people never see — the frame.

What we build

Decks, pergolas, and the details between.

The part you never see

A deck is only as good as the frame.

Most builder-grade decks are fastened to the house by screwing the ledger board directly to the outside of the siding. That creates a pocket for moisture to sit against your home.

Most of the decks we replace have failed at this location. Collin Stoddard, Founder

We open the siding, flash the ledger properly, and detail stucco and lap siding differently because they fail differently. Then every joist top gets wrapped in adhesive tape before a single board goes down.

We never cut corners to lower costs. As a high-end service, we price accordingly.

Above and beyond

The details nobody would notice missing are the ones we get right anyway.

Big-picture mindset

We build for how the space will be used in ten years, not how it photographs in week one.
