Making the wise decision to add a custom deck to your home is one that you will be glad you did for years, if not decades, to come. Adding any type of outdoor living space enables you to finally move past just the four interior walls of your home. Stop simply admiring your panoramic view from inside your home, go spend time immersed in it.
So, you have decided to add a deck – now what? Now, you will have a list of things to make decisions about in order to get the perfect custom deck for yourself and your family. Use this information so that you can make choices as an informed homeowner and a savvy consumer.
Before you can end up with that deck of your dreams, here are some things you will need to decide, in order to arrive there.
Of course, it all starts with selecting the right team of experts. Finding a reputable custom deck professional will help you get the final results you want. Yet, just as important, it is about getting professional input and feedback along the way, in order to make the right choices.
Your budget is also one of the most important factors. Do not try to throw together a budget after you have already started the project. If your budget is not very big, pick a design that allows for future expansion. Your deck can become as big as you want, and include multi levels, even if you cannot do it all right away.
You also have a variety of building materials to choose from, and input from an industry expert will be instrumental here. Real wood adds more value to the home but also requires more work and is more costly upfront. There are plenty of fabricated materials that look like wood and offer exceptional performance and longevity.
Obviously, size and style are the final big choices you have to make. Do you want a traditional deck of a moderate size? Or do you want to go with an elaborate deck complete with a curved top tier and a fire pit on the lower level?
