You might be asking, "Who is this Green Shield company popping up behind the pitcher, and are they actually a legitimate, top-tier deck builder I can trust?"
The bright green "G" visible on the pitcher’s mound during Detroit Tigers home broadcasts is an augmented reality (AR) graphic representing Green Shield Deck Builders. Broadcast networks layer the digital logo onto the camera feed to provide high-visibility placement for homeowners across Michigan, Indiana, and Northern Ohio, while the dirt at Comerica Park remains untouched. As Official Deck Builder of the Detroit Tigers, Green Shield backs up this exposure with premier materials and the only real warranty in decking.
As Official Deck Builder of the Detroit Tigers, Green Shield delivers low-maintenance, wood-free composite decks engineered with local grit to withstand the Midwest's harshest weather.
Severe Great Lakes weather causes traditional deck materials to fail prematurely. Standard wood and basic wood-plastic composites absorb moisture, warp during freeze-thaw cycles, and require constant staining. Green Shield views a deck not as an ongoing maintenance liability, but as a permanent investment, built to last. By pairing low-maintenance composite decking with engineered foundations, Green Shield delivers beautiful outdoor spaces built for the way you live.
Standard deck projects fail within 7 to 12 years across the Great Lakes region due to severe freeze-thaw cycles and flawed building practices.
Green Shield knows, just like in baseball, having a team that can cover all the bases is essential.
Seeing the green "G" behind the pitcher highlights our commitment to building the best decks for homeowners in the Midwest.
From design to final construction, Green Shield manages every detail in-house through the Proven Process to deliver low-maintenance decks built to last a lifetime.
