Where Two Rivers Meet. Built to Last.
Prescott sits at the confluence of the St. Croix and Mississippi rivers at the southern tip of Pierce County and has one of the most distinctive settings of any community in western Wisconsin. The river bluffs, the Welcome Bridge, and the waterfront draw residents who want scenic river town character with easy access to the Twin Cities just across the border. Homes here range from historic properties perched on the bluffs to in-town neighborhoods and newer construction on the flatter ground inland from the river.
Prescott homes face a specific set of exterior challenges driven by their river location. Proximity to both the St. Croix and Mississippi rivers means elevated humidity, increased moisture exposure, and wind off the water that accelerates deterioration on siding joints, window frames, and wood fascia. Bluff properties deal with additional wind exposure on the river facing elevations. Freeze thaw cycling is relentless every Pierce County winter and forces moisture into every small crack and gap in the exterior envelope.
Shane Ward serves Prescott and Pierce County with the same direct hands on approach he brings to every job. He builds every deck personally, installs every siding run with his own crew, and replaces every window himself. No subcontractors, no call centers, no project handed off to someone you have never met. Shane pulls his own permits, knows Pierce County requirements, and answers his own phone at 715-808-5260.

Prescott WI Exterior FAQ
How much does a new deck cost in Prescott WI?
Deck pricing in Prescott depends on size, materials, elevation, and design complexity. Bluff and river view properties in Prescott often require additional structural work that affects pricing. A basic pressure treated deck typically starts around $8,000 to $12,000. A larger custom deck with composite decking, railings, and stairs can run $20,000 or more. Shane provides free on site estimates and quotes the exact price before any work begins. What he quotes is what you pay.
Does living near the St. Croix and Mississippi rivers affect exterior materials on Prescott homes?
Yes. Prescott sits at the confluence of two major rivers and homes here deal with elevated humidity, increased moisture exposure, and wind off the water that accelerates deterioration on siding joints, window frames, and wood fascia. Fiber cement siding over vinyl, aluminum fascia rather than painted wood, and composite decking rather than pressure treated are all worth considering for Prescott river area properties where long term moisture and wind resistance matter most.
Does Shane pull permits for deck and exterior work in Prescott?
Yes. Shane handles all required permitting as part of every deck build in Prescott and Pierce County. He knows the local requirements and takes care of the process so you never have to deal with the city or county building department yourself.
What siding holds up best on Prescott homes near the river?
Fiber cement siding performs best on river corridor properties in Prescott where humidity, moisture exposure, and wind off the water are elevated compared to inland homes. It resists moisture, insects, and warping better than standard vinyl and holds paint significantly longer than wood. For most Prescott homes away from the immediate river bluff quality vinyl installed correctly handles Pierce County winters well. Shane will assess your specific situation and give you an honest material recommendation when he comes out for your estimate.
