Deck Accessories
You can choose from a wide range of accessories for your deck to enhance outdoor living spaces.
- You can enjoy the outdoors by adding windows to a covered deck or creating screened walls that keep pests out.
- For those cold evenings and days, add a gas fireplace or "real wood" to keep warm.
- To enjoy the best of both, extend your "outdoor space" with an open patio or hardscape patio.
- Many of our clients love LED lighting, ceiling fans, and TVs.
Built-in Benches & Bars
Built-in benches are great for relaxing with friends or family.Built-in benches are great for low decks, as they preserve the view and create a new space.A bar-height counter built into a railing can be a great place for your drink, and it will reduce the need to have additional tables.
Covered Decks
You can create privacy and use the area more often by adding a pergola to your roof or simply putting it up.
Built-in Spa or Pool
You can add a hot tub, a swim spa or a full-sized swimming pool to your outdoor living area.You should also include a bar/kitchen so that snacks and drinks are always at your fingertips.
Multi-tiered Decks Descending to a Patio
We can create a deck that goes down to your backyard if your home slopes in the back.You can create a patio with many landscaping and hardscaping options.It is often more efficient to have several small spaces that are connected creatively than one large space when dealing with a difficult property.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cost | Lowest initial cost | Higher initial cost | Higher initial cost | Higher initial cost |
| Maintenance | Highest maintenance of all decking materials, will likely require replacement boards | High maintenance; requires regular sealing for best performance | Moderate maintenance; requires some staining/sealing to retain finish | Lowest maintenance; long lasting color and texture, especially PVC and capped composites |
| Performance | Splinters, cracks, splits, warps, stains, and scratches easily | Subject to some cracking and splintering, resists rotting and insects, does stain and scratch easily | Few splinters, highly resistant to deterioration, does not scratch or stain easily | Overcomes performance issues of wood; composites stain, scratch, and fade, but PVC and capped composites are more resilient |
| Longevity | 10-15 years when properly maintained | 15-20 years when properly maintained | 40+ years when properly maintained | Reputable manufacturers offer warranties typically for 25 years but these decks will last much longer when properly maintained |
