Building a dream custom home on a golf course requires top-tier exterior craftmanship that matches the prestige of the surrounding landscape. A homeowner in St. Cloud needed a seamless exterior transformation that paired durable engineered wood siding with a low-maintenance custom outdoor deck.
Situated along the scenic Territory Golf Course in St. Cloud, MN, this new construction build required a multi-phase exterior installation. Tony's Lifetime Exteriors was brought on to install LP SmartSide board and batten siding while coordinating directly with the property owner to engineer a custom elevated deck system suited for local soil conditions.
To achieve the sleek modern farmhouse aesthetic while guaranteeing long-term resistance against harsh Minnesota weather, the owners selected engineered wood siding paired with top-of-the-line cellular PVC decking. Tony's Lifetime Exteriors managed the direct homeowner consultation and field execution to turn complex ground challenges into a structurally sound outdoor living space.
Installing Precision Siding Systems
Once the new construction custom home was ready for siding, the builder partnered with our experts for the installation. Our field teams mounted LP SmartSide board-and-batten panels in brilliant white, providing extreme thermal performance and high impact resistance against weather and lawn maintenance hazards.
Building with premium engineered wood siding guarantees high strength with virtually zero ongoing maintenance requirements, and the siding is a beautiful complement to the striking black features of the rest of the home.
Addressing Sub-Surface Excavation Hurdles to Install the Deck
The soon-to-be homeowners were impressed with our siding installation, and hired our team to install a high-quality deck as their home was being finished.
During initial site evaluations along Territory Golf Course, field technicians assessed the soil profile where structural support posts were specified. Excavation crews immediately encountered heavily compacted, rocky ground surrounding existing landscape features.
To avoid disrupting nearby property work and ensure exact footing positioning, heavy machinery was sidelined in favor of manual precision. Crew members spent an entire workday hand-digging five dedicated post holes down to required depths to guarantee rigid concrete footings.
"That ground was very challenging. It took a whole day to dig those five holes, but it looks great and the homeowners are very excited." - (Jackie, Tony's Lifetime Exteriors)
Executing a Gorgeous Deck Build
Once footings cured, the dedicated deck team laid 100% cellular PVC Clubhouse vinyl decking boards topped with Westbury C10 black aluminum railings. The rot-proof PVC decking is a perfect choice for homeowners who want to enjoy their new deck without dealing with regular upkeep. This deck will last them a very long time.
Delivering Long-Term Property Value & Aesthetics
Despite adding a full day of excavation, the deck installation was wrapped in four days, while all siding work concluded in eight days. The total project timeline spanned less than two full weeks on site.
The homeowners successfully moved into a fully finished, visually striking residence backed by robust manufacturer warranties and Tony's Lifetime Exteriors' long-standing structural craftsmanship guarantee.
