Functional Deck Additions For Complete Outdoor Spaces

Elevate your outdoor living

Every addition we offer serves a clear purpose. These components work together to create decks that function exactly as intended.

Deck Railing

Vertical barriers installed along deck edges and stairs that provide fall protection and define boundaries between deck surfaces and surrounding areas.

Deck Skirting

Horizontal panels attached beneath the deck frame that enclose the understructure, blocking access to the space below while completing the visual appearance.

Deck Footing

Concrete supports set below the frost line that anchor posts and transfer deck weight to stable soil, preventing movement and settling.

Deck Lighting

Electrical fixtures mounted on posts, stairs, rails, or deck surfaces that provide illumination for navigation and visibility after dark.

Underdeck Systems

Ceiling panels and drainage channels installed beneath elevated decks that redirect water away and create dry, protected space underneath.

Pergolas

Open-roof structures built above deck surfaces using horizontal beams and rafters that provide partial shade and vertical architectural elements.

Cabanas

Enclosed or semi-enclosed structures positioned on or adjacent to decks that offer sheltered seating, changing areas, or outdoor room functionality.

Privacy Screens

Vertical panels or lattice sections installed at deck perimeters that block sightlines from neighboring properties or public areas.

Decking Materials Compared By Performance

Selecting the right material depends on how each option performs across key factors. Here’s how our available materials measure up.

Pressure-Treated Wood ranks highest for initial affordability while offering moderate durability when properly maintained with regular sealing and staining.
Softwood Decking like cedar and redwood provides superior natural rot resistance compared to treated lumber, with excellent workability for custom details.
Hardwood Decking including Ipe, Tigerwood, and Cumaru delivers the highest density and hardness ratings, outperforming all other wood options in longevity and scratch resistance.
Composite Decking leads in color retention and fade resistance, maintaining appearance longer than wood options without requiring annual sealing treatments.
PVC Decking performs best in moisture resistance testing, showing zero water absorption compared to wood and composite alternatives.

Manufacturers And Materials We Trust

We partner exclusively with industry-leading manufacturers whose products consistently deliver exceptional durability, performance, and aesthetic appeal.

Deck Styles Designed Around Space And Layout

Every property presents unique spatial opportunities. We design deck configurations that maximize your available area and work with your lot’s specific characteristics.

Platform Decks

Low-profile structures suited for flat, level yards where minimal elevation change allows seamless transitions between ground surfaces and deck areas.

Raised Decks

Elevated platforms that compensate for sloped terrain or walk-out basements, creating level outdoor surfaces where the ground itself cannot provide them.

Multi-Level Decks

Stacked configurations that divide large areas into distinct zones, using elevation changes to separate spaces without walls or physical barriers.

Freestanding Decks

Detached structures positioned independently from the house, ideal for properties where setback requirements or landscape features prevent attached construction.

Rooftop Decks

Installations built on flat roof surfaces that convert otherwise unused square footage into functional outdoor areas above ground level.

Pool and Spa Decks

Perimeter surfaces surrounding water features, designed with proper drainage pitch and textured finishes for wet-area safety requirements.

Curved or Cantilevered Decks

Non-linear shapes and unsupported overhangs that accommodate irregular lot boundaries or create distinctive visual profiles.

Screened or Covered Decks

Enclosed configurations with roof systems or screen walls that extend usability during rain, intense sun, or peak insect seasons.

Privacy Screen Decks

Designs incorporating vertical screening elements that establish enclosed perimeters for properties with close neighboring structures.
