Fencing & Decking

Decks are no longer just a flat spot in the garden. These days, you can include a chimenea, fire ring or outdoor heater to turn your deck into a cozy spot even on chilly nights. Adding a hot tub to your deck can transform your home into a spa. Throw in a nice grill, and you have an automatic entertainment destination. Connecting a deck to your home will effectively expand your livable space; who couldn’t use more of that?

Homeowners with sloped yards find decks especially appealing. Instead of shoving around tons of dirt to create a level surface, a deck can change a steep hillside into the perfect perch for watching the sunset. (It’s important to ensure that such structures have extra strong foundational supports, to protect against landslides.) Greenhouses and sheds may also be connected to one side of a deck for all-weather access. Finally, decking around a pool is much more charming than concrete.
