Deck Remodels - Remodeling your deck is often seen as a less exciting feat than remodeling the bathroom, or the kitchen. But we promise you it can be just as exciting! With so many great design ideas and perfect layouts, there’s something out there for everyone.
Read on to learn about the top ten deck remodeling ideas you should know about before remodeling your deck.
Install A Dreamy Daybed
Daybeds are perfect for almost any deck. Whether it’s a deck being used in the hot summer heat of Pasadena, or the cool winter snow of Ohio, a daybed is incredibly versatile.
Especially tucked away in the corner of your deck, it offers you a great spot to read a book, people-watch, or take a nap! All while enjoying the great outdoors.
Build-in Seating
Foregoing the railing for built-in seating?! Oh yes! And it’s beautiful. Built-in seating eliminates the need to buy patio furniture which can save you money in the long run. It also gives a very uniform style throughout the deck.
The best part? You can even build a table into your deck to match the built-in seating.
Choose One Statement Color
We all know it’s true, color sets the tone of a space. Whether it’s lime green, or a deep red, one statement color used throughout the deck can tie the whole deck together.
Consider shopping around for a while before choosing your perfect color. And always make sure to check that all of the furniture and accessories you’ve been eyeing are available in the color you’ve chosen.
Consider a Slanted Roof Extension
A slanted roof extension is perfect if you plan on entertaining on your deck regardless of the weather. And not all slanted roof extensions have to be wood! You can use clear plexiglass if you are going for a more modern look.
Get Creative with Railing Materials
Don’t fall into the trap of thinking that you can only use wood to create your railings. Using wire or metal in your railing framing is becoming a popular option as well. A bonus of using alternative railing materials? You don’t have to sacrifice your view, but you’re still staying safe.
Some alternative railing materials are:
● rope
● metal picketing
● concrete,
● plexiglass
● glass
Keep in mind, not all of these materials listed above will work in every house. You will have to consider factors such as climate, and how much work you are willing to put in to maintain it.
Tier Your Deck Space
Tiered deck spaces are a great way to highlight a gorgeous view (though you’ll need the professionals to help you). Another good reason to tier your deck space? Privacy!
Even if you don’t mind being in the public eye of the neighborhood, you still may want to consider a tiered deck to create a separate area dedicated to a specific activity like grilling.
Install a Statement Chandelier
Chandeliers aren’t just for dining rooms! You can bring a statement chandelier to the great outdoors and enjoy luxury from your deck.
In addition, it’s a great way to include your statement color in your design.
