Deck Projects Getting Stuck at the Financing Step? Here’s How to Fix It.

A new deck can transform a backyard — but the price can stop a project before it starts. Whether it’s a simple platform or a custom build with lighting, railings, and hardscaping, these upgrades aren’t cheap. And when customers can’t qualify for deck financing, those jobs often go cold.

That’s where second-look financing changes the game.

If you build decks, patios, or outdoor living spaces, second-look deck financing helps you recover declined applications, increase approval rates, and convert more estimates into signed contracts — without lowering your price or taking on risk.


When Traditional Deck Financing Falls Short

Most contractors offer one financing option through a prime lender. If the customer qualifies, the project moves forward. If not, the deal dies on the spot.

Second-look deck financing solves that problem. When an application is declined, it’s automatically sent to a secondary lender who works with near-prime and subprime credit profiles. That second review gives customers another chance to get approved — and gives you another shot at closing the deal.


The Hidden Cost of Lost Approvals

Deck projects typically range from $10,000 to $30,000 — and often tie into larger outdoor remodels. These aren’t minor expenses. Most homeowners need financing to move forward.

When their first application is denied, they may reduce the project scope, delay the decision, or walk away entirely.

With second-look financing:

  • More customers qualify without needing perfect credit

  • You preserve the full project scope

  • You maintain your pricing and margins

  • You boost your close rate without extra effort
