Instead of a basic deck swap, the homeowners wanted a true destination in the yard—an outdoor room that expands daily living and anchors the landscape. After a walkthrough to understand how the family would use the space, we aligned on a clean, modern design that would read as part of the property, not just an attachment to the house. We carefully demoed the existing structure, set new footings for a larger footprint, and rebuilt with durable, low-maintenance materials. Wrapped, wide stairs were planned to spill gracefully into the lawn, creating a natural flow for kids, dogs, and gatherings. Throughout the weeklong build, we kept communication clear with quick approvals on layout tweaks and finish details, keeping the project within the $35k–$45k budget.
The finished deck feels grand yet simple, a true statement piece that invites you outside and makes the large yard feel intentional and usable. The sweeping wrapped steps create safe, easy access on all sides, and the expanded platform offers plenty of room for dining, lounging, and play. At the final walk-through, the homeowners said the space was exactly what they pictured and loved how it now feels like the deck and yard belong to one another.
