DECK REMODELING

Are you looking to update your backyard living space? One of the most effective ways to do so is by remodeling your deck. With the right design, your decking can transform into a versatile oasis for you and your guests. 

Whether you have a large or small backyard space, there are several ways to style and enhance your deck this spring. Join us as we explore potential deck remodeling ideas that will create a relaxing and entertaining space while enjoying the outdoors.

1. REPLACE OLD MATERIALS

Kickstart your deck remodeling ideas by replacing the deck boards. Wood deteriorates over time, and if you notice cracks and rot in the material, it’s time for an update. PVC decking, made from polyvinyl chloride, is an excellent alternative that is more durable than wood. PVC may be a slightly more expensive option, but it requires less maintenance and is designed to last longer than wood. However, if you prefer a wood deck, many builders utilize cedar or redwood for their reliability.

You may also need to replace your railing if it has become rusty and unstable. Alternatively, you might want to update the look of your deck’s railing to something more modern and stylish. Composite decking has gained popularity among homeowners for its durability, low maintenance, and slip-resistant safety. Regardless of the material you choose for your deck, ensure it aligns with your budget and requirements.

2. EXTEND YOUR DECK

If you have sufficient space, consider extending your deck further into your yard or transforming it into a wraparound structure. Before making any additions, ensure that your deck complies with permits and building codes. Property inspection may be necessary before proceeding with the construction. Once approved, hiring a professional contractor for the deck building process is advisable. Extending a deck is more complex than it may seem, as it requires meticulous planning and inspection to ensure a solid foundation for the addition.

Extending the size of your deck offers numerous benefits. It provides room for additional furniture where you can relax and unwind. With extra space, entertaining becomes easier as well. Whether you choose to add another level or widen your deck, it enhances accessibility and enjoyment for relaxation and entertainment purposes.

3. CREATE A YEAR-ROUND SPACE

 Spending time on the deck during summertime brings a sense of serenity. However, if you reside in a colder climate, you may not get to utilize your deck for most of the year. To enjoy your deck throughout the seasons, consider transforming it into an enclosed space. Adding a roof and screen walls surrounding the deck can create a cozy indoor-outdoor space for year-round enjoyment.

You can also install a pergola or retractable canopy to provide cover during rainy days in spring and summer. If you prefer not to add permanent structures around the deck, consider incorporating elements that make it more enjoyable in cooler temperatures. Installing a fire pit or investing in outdoor propane heaters can keep you warm during the fall. Proper storage is crucial when transitioning between seasons, particularly for long-term storage. Having a storage plan or shed is beneficial for storing items during colder months, ensuring their longevity and quality.

I am so glad that we chose STORsquare for our move. Service was excellent! Adam was always available to answer questions, and they were flexible when coordinating dates for delivery, move to storage location, drop-off at new place, AND pick-up. Chris, the driver, was careful with the container during transportation. All our stuff arrived safely to our new place. Definitely recommend!

It was a pleasure renting from Storsquare. Prompted in responding to my questions, and was so simple setting up delivery and pickup dates for the pod. Price was perfect for my pocket and so convenient to have the additional storage on property.
