The Story of a Colonial Deck Addition

Our customers had a nice Colonial home in need of a large entertaining composite deck. They specifically chose a composite deck because of the low maintenance requirements.

After meeting with them we designed a multi-level Trex deck addition with a white vinyl railing system.

Digging a Footing

Their backyard had many huge bolders below ground level, but we were successful in digging all the footings regardless.

Measuring Up

The town required a 48" depth for each footing, it took some time but eventually we broke through all the rocks and passed our footing inspection.

Deck Layout

With the framing done we laid the building materials accross the structure to visualize the final product.

Taking the 1st Step

Now the deck has been completed, we wet it down to clean off any dirt and debris.

Standing View Walking Towards the Back

The box structure on the right is a landing for the dog, from his doggy door.

View from the Other Side

Here you can see the doggy door on the right side of the slider. Our customers wanted to make sure that their dog has easy access into and out of the home.

Vinyl Ralilings

The white vinyl ralings against the tan trex decking looked really sharp.

Walking the Planks

The nice diagonal cuts in the decks layout gave the deck more character.

The large wide steps just scream "Come on up!"
