Reliable Deck Builder Serving the Ohio Area

We’re the area’s expert in custom deck construction. Hen-House Decks is the premier expert for deck construction throughout the Ohio area. We pride ourselves in not only building decks but building memories for customers like you. A Hen-House deck is much more than just planks of wood screwed together; it’s the culmination of a life-long passion and artistry from owner Andy Henley. Andy values deck-building as so much more than a line of work. He also shares tips with others as a regular contributor to Deck Specialists Magazine. His enthusiasm is at the forefront of every project and a huge part of what makes Hen-House Decks Ohio’s top deck contractor. 

Our Mission

At Hen-House Decks, our mission is to create a unique space that our customers love. This is our passion, and we love making other people happy. Whether you want to create a custom deck with a one-of-a-kind design or install a more traditional structure, we work hard to make sure it’s the outdoor living space of your dreams. 

Above everything else, we aim to run a business that feels like a family. We take inspiration from our small-town roots and apply it to the deck-building business. This means constantly working together, using a team of only trustworthy employees, and supporting the community.

Stunning Results That Speak for Themselves

Andy Henley founded Hen-House Decks with a vision that went beyond constructing outdoor spaces—he aimed to create living experiences that mirror the creativity and warmth of family. Drawing on decades of hands-on experience and a commitment to innovation, Andy transformed deck-building into an art form. His work, recognized at major industry events and through his regular contributions to Deck Specialist Magazine, reflects a passion that resonates in every project.

Every Hen-House Deck is designed with purpose and personality, ensuring homeowners don’t just get a deck—they get a customized outdoor retreat to match their lifestyle.

Unparalleled Commitment to the Community

Family and community are the backbones of Hen-House Decks, right down to our name which combines the owner’s family names of Henley and Greathouse. We want to help our community beyond building decks, which is why we take part in several community projects and charities.  Hen-House Decks is a proud sponsor of a local youth softball league, which owner Andy Henley also serves as a coach. In honor of his late sister Alexis, Andy and the Hen-House Decks team provide a $500 scholarship every year to a local high school senior. Hen-House Decks also supports Alexis’ Pantry, which collects non-perishable food items for those in need throughout the community.
