"Decks have become a lifestyle experience.
It's not just about slapping together some
treated wood and sticking your barbecue
out there. It's really become an extension of
your home and your lifestyle."
One popular trend is to add curve appeal.
More and more homeowners are choosing
to incorporate curved elements such as
borders or railings to create a better sense
of flow.
However, Pelland cautions that they do present challenges.
Curving lumber or composite materials can be an extremely
labour-intensive process and can add thousands of dollars to
the final cost. A curved design also requires considerably more
space, he adds.
Another increasingly popular trend is the use of composite
decking. Constructed from wood fibre and plastic resin and
covered with a hard-plastic polymer coating, many composite
products are guaranteed to last for as long as 30 years and
offer dozens of colour choices that won't fade.
DECKS HAVE BECOME
A LIFESTYLE EXPERIENCE.
IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT
SLAPPING TOGETHER
SOME TREATED WOOD
AND STICKING YOUR
BARBECUE OUT THERE.
