Build a new deck with Becht Pride Residential

There may be several reasons for you to build a deck.

 

A new deck can provide a peaceful outdoor living space, all while hosting friends and family with the grill, hot tub, or whatever else you want to do on your Central Indiana patio and deck.

 

However, building a deck is not always easy. Even for the do-it-yourselfers out there, constructing a deck isn’t the easiest job in the book.

 

The first step in planning a deck is to work out where to build it. For this, you need to consider the size, the shape, the location, and the neighboring landscape of the deck. Some of these features may be more important to you than the others, but you should always keep all of them in mind when you plan, design, and build a deck.

 

 

Factors to consider when deciding to build a new deck:

 

 

Access

  • Be sure to build the deck in a convenient location. Is there proper access to and from the house to the deck? Is there an existing wall or a door that needs to be removed?

 

 

Direction

  • Which direction does your residence face? This is important because if you put your deck facing the sun, you might need to think about how you will get shade from the sun’s heat. Otherwise, your deck may simply be usable. In this case, a good deck builder will suggest you incorporate lattice barriers into the design. These offer shade from the sun and also give protection from brisk winds.

 

Privacy

  • This is very important. You must make sure that your deck design offers you privacy from your neighbors.

 

Design

  • Your deck should look like an extension of your house. If you do not have the skills necessary for designing a deck that blends well with your house, you should think about hiring a professional deck builder like us 

 

Materials

  • The most common deck building material is wood, like cedar and redwood, which can be either stained or sealed. You can also opt for recycled plastic materials in composite decks.
