Austin was originally settled along the Cedar River and it has two man-made lakes called East Side Lake and Mill pond. It was named for Austin R. Nichols, the first settler in the area. Austin is sometimes called “Spam Town USA”, as it is home to Hormel’s headquarters and is home to the Spam Museum. With Hormel’s corporate headquarters and main production facility located in Austin, food processing plays a dominant role in the city’s economy. Hormel and Quality Pork Processors, a contract food processing firm serving Hormel, are by far the largest private employers in Austin. Austin is also home to the Austin Bruins which are a junior hockey team in the NAHL.

Austin experiences very warm summers, and very cold winters. This fluctuation in temperatures makes having a custom deck built with Trex composite decking material ideal. Composite decking will withstand warping over time from the humidity and snowfall. However, Austin still enjoys an average of 183 sunny days per year giving you plenty of time to enjoy a custom-built deck year-round.Whether you are looking to add a new deck, repair an existing one, or extend a deck, let the pros at TS Custom Decks help.
