Designing Your Dream Custom Deck
Designing your dream deck is a process that requires thought. Start with determining the purpose of your deck. This will influence its design, size, and the features you might include. It will also affect the budget for your custom deck project.
This vision for your outdoor space will benefit from a partnership with our experienced deck contractors. We not only provide design advice but also ensure that your deck complements your home’s architectural style and the surrounding landscape.
Unlike most deck building companies, at Precision Decks we focus only on decks and pergolas to offer exceptional service. Whether you are looking for multi-level, elevated, or covered deck builders, we can help.
Your Decking Material Options
The main decking materials used for custom decks are natural wood and composite deck boards, though there has been a shift toward using composite materials.
Traditional Wood Decks
Although wood has traditionally been a favorite for its natural beauty and warmth, it’s important to note its decline in popularity because of susceptibility to rot, decay, insects, and the high maintenance it demands to keep it in good condition. We recommend composite decking materials.
Why Composite Deck Materials are Preferred
Composite decking materials represent a significant advancement in outdoor deck technology, offering homeowners a durable, low-maintenance, and aesthetically pleasing option. Top manufacturers include Trex, TimberTech, Deckorators, and Fiberon.
Made from a blend of wood fibers and plastic, composite decking combines the natural look and feel of wood with the durability and resilience of synthetic materials. This results in a deck that withstands the elements, including rot, decay, and insect infestations, far better than traditional wood.
One of the key advantages of composite decking is its minimal maintenance requirements. It requires only occasional cleaning with soap and water to keep it looking new. This makes composite decking a cost-effective solution over time, despite its higher initial investment compared to traditional wood decking. It’s also a good option for deck remodeling projects.
Deck Features and Enhancements
Custom decks can turn your ordinary backyard into a unique outdoor living space with a range of features. Here’s a look at some popular deck features:
Built-in Seating
Maximizes space and provides ample seating for guests.
Privacy Screens
Offer seclusion from neighbors and passersby, making the deck more intimate.
Fire Pits
Create a cozy atmosphere for gatherings, especially during cooler evenings.
Planter Boxes
Allow for the addition of greenery and flowers, adding color and life to the deck space.
Pergolas
Provide shade and structure, adding a visually interesting architectural element.
Deck Lighting
Enhances the ambiance and ensures you can enjoy your deck even after the sun sets. Options include string, solar, or LED lights integrated into railings, stairs, or overhead.
Outdoor Kitchens
Bring the convenience of cooking outdoors, perfect for entertaining. Equipped with grills, countertops, and sometimes even refrigerators and sinks.
Deck Railings
Essential for safety, especially for elevated decks, but also offer a significant aesthetic component. Railings can be crafted from aluminum, composite, or glass to complement the deck’s design.
Custom Decks FAQs
Custom decks allow for personalization to fit your specific aesthetic and functional needs. They can be designed to complement the architecture of your home, make optimal use of available space, and include unique features that standard decks may not offer.
Popular materials include natural woods like cedar or redwood, pressure-treated lumber, and composite or PVC materials. Each has its own advantages in terms of appearance, durability, maintenance, and cost.
Maintenance considerations depend on the materials used. Wood decks require regular cleaning, staining, and sealing, while composite decks need less maintenance but should still be cleaned regularly to maintain their appearance.
