Huge, dream new
deck in Duvall, WA, with composite deck railings that compliment the home’s exterior
This decking project in Duvall, WA, stands out as a hallmark of design meeting function. The homeowners wanted an expansive new deck that would enhance the classic Tudor-style architecture of their beautiful home and also connect key living spaces — the kitchen to the living room.
Our team at Olympic Decks was tasked with creating a deck that spanned the length of the home, a challenging yet exciting endeavor given the stunning architecture and color scheme of the house. The design called for a deck that not only matched the home’s exterior in style but also in spirit, providing the perfect outdoor living space.
The first focus was on choosing the right materials. We opted for high-quality composite decking known for its durability and low maintenance. This choice was instrumental in complementing the home’s sophisticated aesthetic. The composite decking‘s rich color beautifully mirrored the home’s exterior, providing a continuous and elegant visual appeal that perfectly complements the home’s architecture.
The deck was designed with white posts and contrasting composite railing options that not only provided safety but also enhanced the home’s charm. These railing materials were carefully selected to blend with the existing color palette and architectural details, such as the stonework around the home’s façade. Post caps were used to add the perfect finishing touch, providing both protection and aesthetic appeal.
Understanding the homeowners’ need for functionality, we incorporated a substantial storage space beneath the deck. This area was designed to be easily accessible yet discreet, perfect for storing outdoor furniture and other items during the off-season months. This solution provided practicality without compromising the deck’s aesthetic appeal.
One of the challenges we faced was ensuring the deck’s structure did not obstruct the scenic views while providing ample support and structural integrity. Meticulous planning went into the placement and construction of supports to maintain an unobstructed view from every angle, ensuring that the deck was as open and inviting as possible. The railing system was designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, ensuring the deck not only provided visual appeal but also stood the test of time.
The installation process was a critical step in ensuring that the deck met the local building codes and exceeded the homeowners’ expectations. Our team followed the manufacturer’s instructions carefully to ensure the composite deck railing system was installed with precision, ensuring exceptional durability and minimal upkeep. The recycled materials used in the composite deck boards and railing system ensure the deck is environmentally friendly while providing a perfect blend of durable materials.
To ensure the deck would provide years of enjoyment, we used recycled wood fibers and modern materials that are highly resistant to weather resistance and harsh weather conditions. The composite railing systems ensure safety and durability, unlike wood railings, which require constant upkeep. The perfect railing system was selected to ensure it would withstand harsh weather conditions and offer long-term performance with only occasional cleaning.
The composite railing options chosen for the project also offered design versatility, providing a contemporary look that perfectly complemented the traditional design of the home. Wood railings, though classic, can require more frequent cleaning and can warp over time. Post sleeves were incorporated into the design for a clean and cohesive appearance, and the top rail was selected for its ability to support the drink rail, a perfect addition to the homeowners’ outdoor living space.
The completion of this deck in Duvall was a rewarding experience for our team at Olympic Decks. Not only did we meet the functional needs of the homeowners, but we also delivered a dream deck that stood true to the elegance and durability we pride ourselves on. The use of composite materials ensured the deck would withstand harsh weather conditions while maintaining its natural wood appearance. Each choice, from the layout to the materials, shows our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.
