Aside from your yard, decks are another extension of your home’s exterior. Decks are an essential part of your outdoor living space that serve many different functions, including lounging, cooking, and hosting events. As an essential part of your outdoor living space, it is ideal for keeping your deck looking its best and upgrading it when the opportunity arises. Upgrading your deck can go a long way in enhancing its appeal, space, comfort, and functions. Listed below are some tips for upgrading your deck, transforming it from basic to extravagant.

Screening

Adding screens to your deck enhances its appeal. Screens add a border around your deck, creating a sense of privacy and protection. Screens can block your view from the neighbors and protect you from dirt, bugs, and other elements while maintaining an open and airy outdoor feel.

Lighting

Installing lighting on your deck is ideal for navigating and using your deck at night. Lighting options can range from lanterns, railing lights, spotlights, in-floor lights, solar lights, and hanging lights, to name a few. Lighting can transform the look and space of your deck entirely, enhancing its appeal and creating a relaxing atmosphere, especially at night. The glow illuminating from your deck at night is ideal for enjoying activities in the evening, including dinner, lounging, and spending time with your loved ones.

Shade

Adding shading to your deck is great for enhancing the comfort of your outdoor living space. By adding umbrellas, pergolas, canopies, and awnings to your deck, you can protect it from the sun or rain keeping you and your guests comfortable in any weather.

Railing

Upgrading your railing enhances the safety of your deck while also increasing its appeal. Railing options come in a variety of materials and styles. You can integrate styles that match your home’s exterior or go for a whole new look.

Refinish

Refinishing your deck is an easy upgrade to do. It provides your deck with a newer and cleaner look while also adding a layer of protection to it. Refinishing protects your deck from mold, rotting, cracking, and water damage that can accrue over time.
