    Stone Oak covers 78258 and 78260 on the far North Side of San Antonio, directly over the Edwards Aquifer recharge zone, with thin soil over fractured limestone and live oak canopy.

    Most backyards are small, sloped and rocky, so deck piers are drilled into rock and multi-level designs are the norm on the canyon-edge lots. Because the area sits on the recharge zone, the city applies extra rules on impervious cover and drainage.

  • Permits and HOA review

    Stone Oak is inside San Antonio city limits, so the City of San Antonio Development Services Department typically requires a permit for a deck that is attached to the house, over 300 square feet or more than 30 inches above grade (the city code and Information Bulletin 151 say 300 square feet; an older DSD web page still shows 200), plus an electrical permit for lighting, and aquifer recharge zone rules can apply to drainage.

    More

    Most subdivisions here, including Sonterra, Canyon Springs and Mesa Verde, commonly require an Architectural Control Committee review with material, color and height guidelines before work starts.

  • Why it matters

    A Stone Oak deck has to clear both the city and an active ACC, and the ground under it is rock.

    Klema Builders prepares the architectural submission, files the city permit and engineers drilled piers to the lot before a fixed price is written, so the review does not stall the build.

Common questions

Does Klema Builders build custom decks in Stone Oak, Texas?

Klema Builders is a custom deck builder in Stone Oak, Texas, working in wood (cedar, ipe, pressure-treated), composite (Trex, TimberTech, Fiberon), and full multi-level designs, and serving San Antonio, the Texas Hill Country and the I-35 corridor to Austin. Master-planned community decks across 78258 and 78260, with ACC submissions prepared for you. A 400 sq ft composite deck is built in 3 to 6 weeks after permits clear and quoted fixed-price, line by line, after a free in-home consult. HOA submissions and permits handled, with manufacturer warranties registered in your name at the walk-through.

How much does a custom deck cost in Stone Oak?

A 16x30 basic wood deck with handrails in Stone Oak starts at $6,500, labor and materials included. That is a 16 ft by 30 ft (480 sq ft) deck in economy-grade wood with no upgrades (no composite boards, lighting, multi-level framing or built-ins), with handrails, built and installed. The final number depends on the decking material, the height above the ground, stairs, railing style, permits and HOA review. Every job gets a written fixed-price quote, line by line, within 3 to 5 business days after a free in-home consult.

What wood do you use for decks in Stone Oak?

Wood decks in Stone Oak are built with western red cedar, ipe, or pressure-treated southern yellow pine. Cedar carries the warm, traditional Hill Country look, with hand-cut decorative ends, sanded by hand, and sealed for Texas UV. Ipe is the hardwood option for a 30-plus year lifespan, oiled annually. Pressure-treated pine is the framing standard for every Klema deck. Master-planned community decks across 78258 and 78260, with ACC submissions prepared for you. Stainless and coated fasteners survive local humidity swings, and we flash every ledger connection to prevent the slow rot that starts where the deck meets the house.

Do you build composite decks in Stone Oak?

Yes. We build composite decks in Stone Oak with Trex, TimberTech, and Fiberon. Surface temperature, UV stability, and structural shrinkage are the three Texas-specific failure points we engineer around. We compare board colors in your own sun at the consult, choose heat-rated capped composites, and specify stainless or coated fasteners. Lighter composite colors and modern capped boards run cooler than dark first-generation composite. Manufacturer warranties pass through to you on day one: Trex up to 50 years, TimberTech up to 50, Fiberon up to 30.

Do you build multi-level and pool decks in Stone Oak?

Yes. Most Stone Oak backyards benefit from at least two levels. A platform off the back door for the dining table and lounge seating, stepping down to a larger entertaining tier with seating and a fire feature. We engineer stairs, lighting, and railing heights to current IRC code in every jurisdiction we serve. Pool decks get slip-resistant surfaces, generous coping detail, and engineered drainage transitions. Every multi-level deck we build is custom-designed to your lot, your view corridor, and the way you actually live outside.

Do you handle HOA submissions and permits?

Yes, every time. We prepare the architectural review package, the site plans, and the material specs, and submit on your behalf. We also pull all required deck and electrical permits and coordinate inspections. Permitting is a line item in your quote.

More questions (4)
How long does the build take from quote to walk-through?

Composite or cedar decks take 3 to 6 weeks from signed contract to walk-through once permits clear. Multi-level decks or pool decks run 6 to 10 weeks. We provide a written schedule in your contract.

Will a composite deck get too hot in Texas summers?

Dark first-generation composite can get hot in direct August sun. Lighter colors and modern capped boards run cooler, and we compare samples in your own sun before you commit.

Can you build on a sloped Hill Country lot?

Yes. Multi-level decks on caliche, limestone, and clay soils are normal terrain for us. We engineer the pier depth and beam spans for your specific lot, with stamped drawings if your jurisdiction requires them.

What manufacturer warranties come with the materials you install?

Manufacturer warranties on composite decking pass through to you on day one: Trex up to 50 years, TimberTech up to 50, Fiberon up to 30. Every manufacturer warranty is registered in your name at the walk-through.
