Project Planning

Project Planning

Decks, Patios and Screened Porches extend the living space of your home by creating functional Outdoor Rooms. They accommodate your family’s way of life with flexibility for recreation, relaxation or entertainment.

A deck, porch or patio creates space for barbecuing, dining, sunbathing, playing or simply enjoying nature. In addition to adding enjoyment to your home, an outdoor improvement project also increases its value.

The most important part in designing your project is the planning phase.

A few factors worth considering are:  How large is the site? Is the ground level or sloped? What type of sun does the site receive? How much privacy do you want? What activities will take place on the deck/patio? If steps are incorporated into the design, where would you like them to land? Is a screened porch or gazebo needed for protection against the elements? How much time will you devote to maintenance? How much have you budgeted for this project?

Woodscape offers a wide selection of natural and synthetic products. High quality, pressure-treated pine, cedar, mahogany and ipe are always classic options. However, composite and synthetic decking products, as well as alternate railings (such as metal or vinyl) that don’t crack, splinter or warp offer cost effective and low maintenance alternatives to our customers.
