Shelby County is recognized across the region as the Saddlebred Horse Capital of the World, established in 1792 and deeply rooted in Kentucky’s agricultural history. The area features historic downtown shopping districts, miles of scenic backroads, and extensive horse farms that draw equine enthusiasts from around the country. Local life centers around community heritage, rural preservation, and the clear waters of Guist Creek Lake.
SunnySide Decks & Outdoor Living is your trusted deck contractor in Shelby County, KY, complementing local architecture with premium outdoor construction. As a business with 30 years of construction experience, the team focuses on honest communication and technical 3D design to help neighbors expand living spaces.
Why SunnySide Decks and Outdoor Living Stand Out
River-adjacent humidity and varying terrain make material selection and structural accuracy vital. The team addresses local challenges head-on:
- Design-Led Expertise: A specialist with a degree in architectural CAD develops projects to provide structural accuracy before the first board is cut.
- Dedicated W-2 Crews: The company employs internal crews rather than subcontractors to maintain quality control.
- Manufacturer Certifications: As a Trex Pro Gold and TimberTech Pro Builder, SunnySide installs high-performance materials from brands like Fiberon and Deckorators.
- Local Accountability: Active NADRA membership and local athletic team sponsorships demonstrate investment in the Shelby County and Southern Kentucky community
