Decks
Decks add character to the exterior of a home. Wood deck materials options include cedar, IPE, and Tigerwood, to name a few. Cedar decks are still the most common decking material used. New to homeowners are the hardwoods such as IPE and Tigerwood. These "hard" woods, referring to their density, are very durable. For example, IPE wood is said to be three times harder than cedar. The beauty of a newly laid wood deck with a fresh coat of stain adds value to a property and enhances the outdoor living possibilities.
Wood deck railing, stairs, and benches provide security and make the deck accessible. Deck rails may be of cedar wood, iron, aluminum, glass, or cables---it is a matter of choice. Each homeowner has a personalized vision of aesthetic appeal or need. Adding stairs to a deck allows you to walk out into the yard without having to go through the house again. Benches and planter boxes are additional features which enhance your enjoyment of the living space you want to create.
