A deck should make your home more livable, not add another item to your maintenance list. Too often, standard wood decking falls victim to Montana's weather — swelling, cracking, and graying within just a few seasons, especially on waterfront properties where moisture and temperature swings take an extra toll. Montana Legacy Docks & Decks takes a different approach. We're a family-run outfit serving Somers and the surrounding lake communities, and we build decks around two core materials: aluminum framing and composite decking. That combination gives homeowners a structure that holds up to the elements without the constant upkeep wood demands.

​

Wood decks look great on day one, but sun, moisture, and freeze-thaw cycles gradually work against them leading to warping, rot, and rusted hardware over time. Aluminum framing sidesteps most of that. It won't rot, rust, or warp the way wood does, which means the bones of your deck stay solid for the long haul. Pair that with composite decking on top, and you get a surface that resists moisture damage and holds its appearance far longer than traditional lumber, with a fraction of the sanding, staining, and sealing.

Built Around How You'll Use It

No two properties are the same, and no two decks should be either. Before we design anything, we look at your lot, your home's layout, and how you actually want to use the space. Whether that's a lakeview deck for watching sunsets, a large deck for hosting family and friends, or a quieter private retreat. For waterfront lots specifically, we plan around moisture exposure and shoreline conditions from the start, rather than treating it as an afterthought.
