That makes it a supportive but not decisive factor for deck building in Madison.
Madison's owner-occupied share is 46%, a smaller driver of deck building demand than in many of the markets we cover. That is among the lowest of the markets we cover (23rd percentile of 401 markets). The typical market we cover sits at 54%.

deck building seasonality in Madison: a month-by-month calendar
deck building demand in Madison runs through the year rather than in one season; temperatures peak in July (average high 82°F) and bottom out in January (average low 12°F), so weather affects scheduling more than demand. The figures below are NOAA 1991-2020 monthly normals for MADISON DANE RGNL AP, about 5 miles from Madison; read them with the Madison market page, the deck building industry page, smart scheduling and the AI receptionist in mind.

Across the whole year, Madison's average high peaks at 82°F in July and its average low bottoms out at 12°F in January; precipitation is highest in June (5.3 inches) and lowest in January (1.5 inches).
