The Perfect Deck in Barrington
You may be ready to have a beautiful, new deck built on your property. With that said, you may not know what kind of deck is right for you. There are a few different types of decks—each with their own advantages. Certain types of decks are also better for certain properties. Below is more information about the types of decks that are available. If you have any questions about the different types of decks and whether the one you like is right for your property, reach out to Extra Decks in Barrington.
Wraparound Deck
A wraparound deck has a cozy, warm, and rustic appearance. This type of deck either partially or fully wraps around your home. Many owners of wraparound decks add hanging plants, outdoor furniture, and even a grill in the backyard. Bench swings and rocking chairs are popular for wraparound decks and add to the charm of the deck.
Many prospective homeowners love the look of a wraparound deck. They can picture themselves sipping iced tea and watching their kids play. Because of this, if you decide to sell, you may find that your new wraparound deck adds to your property value.
If you live in a place that is surrounded by natural beauty, you’ll love your wraparound deck. You can birdwatch if you live by the forest or listen to the waves crash if you live by the beach.
Whether you are looking to relax on a rocking chair with a cool beverage after a long day of work or you would like to have some friends over for a cookout, a wraparound deck is a great choice for your home.
Rooftop Deck
Those that live somewhere with limited space outdoors know how important every foot of outdoor space is. If you live in a city, you may not have much of a yard—if any at all. This means you have to leave your house any time you want to enjoy the outside world. While it’s nice to go for a walk sometimes, other times you just want to relax at home while still getting some sunlight. That’s where a rooftop deck comes in…
Rooftop decks can be built on any stable, flat roof. With that said, a contractor will need to inspect before building begins. Rooftop decks are perfect for apartments, condos, businesses, and even standalone homes.
If you would like to sip a beverage and catch up on your favorite book, you can do so on your rooftop deck. You may have a nice view of the skyline from your roof, but you are missing out. With a rooftop deck, you can enjoy that view. Rooftop decks are also great for parties!
If you are a restaurant or bar owner, you know how valuable each and every seat is. A rooftop deck not only provides you with more seats (which means more potential revenue), but they are also extremely popular with customers. Who doesn’t love enjoying a nice night out on a rooftop deck, or getting a little sun on a nice day while enjoying a meal?
There are a lot of advantages to a rooftop deck. If you’d like to see if your roof can handle a rooftop deck, reach out to Extra Decks.
Multi-Tier Deck
Those that have land that is on a slope or is otherwise uneven understand how frustrating it can be. You may have a good amount of unused land because you simply can’t get proper footing. If your home is on a hill, slope, or other uneven property, the perfect solution may be a multi-tier deck. These decks have two or more tiers that are generally connected by stairs.
Multi-tier decks are custom to best match the property. They can also be built around existing trees and vegetation. This provides some extra shade and even a sense of whimsey.
With a multi-tier deck, you can enjoy the birds chirping, get some fresh air, and relax. Whether you would like to listen to your favorite podcast in the shade on some outdoor furniture or you would like to host an outdoor party, a multi-tier deck is an excellent choice.
If your land is uneven or steep, contact Extra Decks. We can send out a contractor to check out your property.
Detached Deck
What if you could have your own private island? That would be awesome! Now, what if you could have that little island floating in your yard? If you would like a nice, relaxing spot to get away from it all but don’t want to leave your property, consider a detached deck!
A detached deck is similar to other decks, but it doesn’t attach to your home. This gives you more freedom with where you want to put it and even how you want to decorate it! You can add decorations, plants, and vegetation to create a little more privacy, or you can leave it open to enjoy the breeze and extra sunlight. If you would like some additional shade, a pergola is the perfect fit.
Detached decks are easier to build than other decks and are often very near to the ground. You may not even need a permit to build one (check with your city). The design and building process is a breeze with Extra Decks.
While a detached deck is a nice place to sip a cool drink and get away from it all, it’s also a wonderful spot for entertaining guests. They can enjoy outdoor activities in your yard while also having a relaxing place to chat. With a detached deck, there are a lot of possibilities!
The Barrington Deck-building Process
The process of having your new deck built is actually a lot easier and more straightforward than you may think. The first step is calling Extra Decks for a consultation. We’ll then send out an expert contractor to survey your property and help you decide on the right type of deck for your yard. If you are looking at having a rooftop deck built, your contractor will check to ensure the rooftop can handle the placement of a rooftop deck. The next step is the design phase. Once the perfect deck is designed, your contractor will build your amazing new deck!
