Tonka Bay Deck Construction — Lake Minnetonka Living

Tonka Bay's residential properties are primarily near the lake, which means nearly every deck project here involves shoreline setback considerations through the LMCD and the City of Tonka Bay. We handle the permitting process completely, including any coordination with the Conservation District. Composite decking is our strong recommendation for Tonka Bay given the moisture exposure and heavy summer use that lakeside outdoor spaces see. Our builds here are designed to look great and require minimal ongoing maintenance.

Do I need a permit to build a deck in Tonka Bay?

How long does deck construction take in Tonka Bay?
