Decks & Outdoor Living in Versailles
Lake-grade decks, screened porches, and outdoor living rooms built with composite, hardwood, and stone for decades of waterfront enjoyment.
A Deck at the Lake Lives Harder Than Any Other Surface on Your Property.
Versailles is our hometown — the Morgan County seat where our family has built since 1958. Lake Ozarks Remodeling Co was established here in 1996 by our owner, who has personally led every project since. We've built more projects for more Versailles neighbors than any contractor in the region across 65+ years of family operation. Sun, humidity, freeze-thaw cycles, boat wake vibration, lake spray, and seasonal saturation — a deck at the Lake of the Ozarks endures conditions that expose every shortcut a contractor takes. We've seen the aftermath: pressure-treated pine decks built without proper moisture management that split and warp by year two, corroded hardware that fails before year three, structural movement by year five. We build with composite, ipe, and premium materials specifically selected for lake exposure, with fastener systems that don't fail when the conditions get real.

Deck Builder Projects Across Versailles & the Lake
Versailles Is Home — and We Work Here Like Every Neighbor Is Watching, Because They Are.
Our headquarters is at 301 Fairground Rd in Versailles — the Morgan County seat — and this is where our family has lived, worked, and built since 1958. Our owner, Michael McGee, has worked the Lake personally since 1996. We know every street, every building inspector, every supplier, and a substantial portion of the neighborhood. When you hire us for a Versailles project, your project manager is 5 minutes away at all times. Our crews don't carry a drive premium in your bid. And our reputation in Versailles is built on four generations of neighbors recommending us to neighbors — which creates a standard of accountability that no out-of-town or out-of-state contractor will ever face. Deck selection at the Lake starts with understanding Ameren SMO setback and dock regulations if your structure extends toward the water. It continues with materials science — which composites hold color in full Missouri sun, which decking profiles manage standing water, and how to design drainage so your deck doesn't become a mold surface between visits. We bring lake-specific structural experience and material knowledge to every project, sized and specified for how you'll actually use the space.

What Our Clients Say
"Our master bath looks like it belongs in a five-star resort. Marble, frameless glass, heated floors — and they finished early. We will use them for every project going forward."
"We hired them for a kitchen remodel and a new deck. The craftsmanship is on a different level. The project manager kept us informed every single day."
"Whole-home renovation done right. Single team, single contract, single point of contact. They re-engineered our flow and the result is stunning."
"From the first sketch to the final art-hang, everything was handled. We walked into a styled, finished home. Worth every dollar."

Common Questions, Honest Answers
What decking material holds up best at the Lake of the Ozarks?
For lakefront and high-exposure applications, we recommend capped composite decking — Trex, TimberTech, or Fiberon — which resists fading, moisture, and mold without annual sealing. Ipe hardwood is an excellent natural option if you're willing to maintain it with annual oiling. We avoid pressure-treated pine for anything but hidden structural framing at the lake — surface exposure simply doesn't agree with the environment.
Do I need Ameren SMO approval to build a deck near the water?
It depends on your property's shoreline setback and whether your deck extends toward any SMO-regulated zone. We review your property and setback requirements before design begins and coordinate SMO permit submissions when required — this is standard practice for us on lakefront deck projects.
What does a lakefront deck project typically cost at the Lake of the Ozarks?
Lakefront deck costs at the Lake typically range from $35,000 for a straightforward composite deck to $120,000+ for multi-level structures with outdoor kitchens, pergolas, and specialty lighting. We provide a fixed-price proposal after a free on-site consultation and measurement — no open-ended estimates, no surprises.
What's the real advantage of hiring a contractor based in Versailles for a Versailles project?
