Deck Lighting to Enhance Ambiance and Safety
Proper deck lights add beauty and functionality, making your outdoor space more inviting after sunset. We install a variety of lighting options that highlight deck designs while improving visibility and safety.
- Illuminates Walkways and Stairs: Strategically placed deck lights prevent trips and falls, making your deck project safer for family and guests. From step lighting to post cap fixtures, we use creative deck ideas to improve accessibility.
- Creates a Cozy Atmosphere for Evenings: Soft, warm lighting enhances the ambiance, allowing you to enjoy your deck space long after dark. Whether entertaining guests or relaxing with built-in seating, the right lighting transforms your outdoor gathering experience.
Deck Railing Options for Safety and Style
Choosing the right railing materials enhances the safety and design of your deck. We offer a variety of railing materials that complement different deck designs while providing sturdy protection.
- Durable and Stylish Railing Materials: From classic wood to modern metal and cable railings, we provide high-quality options to match your outdoor kitchen, covered deck, or second-story deck. Each selection balances strength and style.
- Customizable Designs for Any Deck Project: You can choose railing materials in various colors, styles, and finishes, allowing for a personalized look. Whether you prefer sleek minimalism or traditional charm, we help you find the perfect fit for your deck space.
Dry Space Waterproofing for a Functional Lower Level
A second-story deck creates additional living space, but the area beneath can go unused without proper waterproofing. Our deck drainage systems ensure the lower level stays dry, allowing for comfortable seating, built-in benches, additional storage, or even an outdoor kitchen.
- Protects the Lower-Level Deck Space: Our deck drainage systems prevent water from seeping through the upper deck, keeping the area below dry and usable. This feature is perfect for covered deck installations, creating a functional outdoor space for all weather conditions.
- Increases Longevity of the Deck Structure: Our waterproofing solutions reduce moisture buildup and prevent wood rot by diverting water from the frame. This extends the lifespan of your deck project, ensuring long-term durability and minimal maintenance.
Fireplaces and Fire Pits for a Warm Outdoor Gathering
A fireplace or fire pit creates a welcoming focal point, making your deck an ideal spot for relaxing. These features add warmth and ambiance, encouraging guests to linger longer.
- Extends the Usability of Your Deck Space: With a built-in fireplace or fire pit, you can enjoy your deck project even on chilly nights. This addition pairs well with comfortable seating and built-in benches.
- Enhances the Look of Your Deck Design: Whether a sleek modern fire table or a rustic stone fire pit, this feature adds style and sophistication. Fire elements blend seamlessly with creative deck ideas, complementing planter boxes and deck lights.
Bar Top Railings for Stylish Entertainment
Bar top railings add a touch to your deck space, providing a convenient surface to hold drinks. This feature is perfect for upper-level decks, making them a hub for socializing.
- Creates a Casual Entertaining Area: Bar top railings are ideal for offering a spot for guests to congregate. This setup enhances your deck project’s usability.
- Maximizes Space with Multi-Purpose Design: Bar top railings add efficiency to small or large decks. If you have a number of guests, it is easy for them to set their beverages down if there is not enough table space.
