Choosing the Right Deck Design for Your Home

Choosing the Right Deck Design for Your Home eastern shore porch and patio

Here are some tips for choosing a deck design that fits your home.

When remodeling your living space, your home’s exterior should be as carefully constructed and decorated as the inside of your home. One of the most essential spaces to consider is the deck. Deck design often goes beyond the typical aesthetic requirements for your home since this particular area’s style can clash with or complement your interiors. Choosing the right design that suits your personal preferences and functional needs is important before building your deck. Here are some tips for choosing a deck design that fits your home.

Determine the Deck’s Purpose

There are many reasons to build a deck in your exterior space, and most emphasize the addition’s functionality and practicality. For example, a roomy, ground-level platform deck is perfect for outdoor entertaining. If you frequently host parties, you will need sufficient space for guests, a grill, seating, and, perhaps, a bar. Adding stairs leading to the backyard also allows the celebration to spread out.

A deck also provides a seamless transition from the indoors to the outdoors, letting you quietly relax and appreciate the cool garden breeze. In addition, your family dynamics can determine the appropriate functionality of the deck railing. For families with young children, a glass railing is safer and may be more suitable for decked areas high above the ground.

Choosing Materials for Your Deck Design

When selecting the best materials for your deck, it is important to consider the required maintenance and future replacement costs. Since these expenses can add up over time, choosing low-maintenance materials can save time and money in the long run. A range of choices offers high quality and can serve as the finishing touches to the architectural style of your property.

Eastern Shore Porch and Patio sells and installs composite decking for our residential customers. We only use Armadillo composite decking, a premier composite decking product that combines low maintenance with superior quality. Armadillo composite decking is environmentally friendly and available in numerous colors and finishes to suit your style.

Complement the Space

Most of the time, deck design is ideal for creating extra space for residents. If you already have a large garden, a composite deck can complement your lush, green landscape with a sophisticated design. For smaller exteriors, a deck installation can create the illusion of a bigger space. Smaller areas can also greatly benefit from natural-looking decks that fit well with the flourishing landscape. It is smart to complement the design with an unobtrusive deck railing system to ensure the area appears open.
