A wide range of design options are available to create the perfect outdoor living space tailored to your preferences. From multi-level decks and integrated planters to pergolas and shade structures, we can incorporate various elements to enhance both functionality and aesthetics.
Additionally, we provide options for outdoor kitchens, fire pits, water features, and smart technology integrations, such as automated lighting and sound systems. Our design team works closely with you to ensure every detail reflects your vision, resulting in a unique and personalized outdoor space.
There are several ways to enhance privacy on your deck, such as installing privacy screens, lattice panels, pergolas, or planting tall shrubs and trees around the deck. Adding curtains or outdoor shades to a pergola can also provide a more secluded space.
Yes, Built Clough offers comprehensive maintenance services to keep your outdoor living spaces in top condition. Our services include routine inspections, cleaning, sealing, and repairs for both wood and composite decks. We can also update and refresh other elements of your outdoor area, such as pergolas, outdoor kitchens, and fire features, ensuring your space remains beautiful and functional for years to come. Learn more about our maintenance plans and packages on our Annual Home Maintenance page.
The duration of a deck build depends on the size and complexity of the project. A simple, single-level deck can take 1 to 2 weeks to complete, while larger, multi-level decks with custom features might take 3 to 4 weeks. Weather conditions and availability of materials can also affect the timeline.
We work with a variety of high-quality materials for deck construction to suit different needs and preferences. Our options include natural wood, such as pine or cedar, which provide a classic look and feel. We also offer composite decking materials like Trex, which are low-maintenance and highly durable. Each material is selected for its strength, longevity, and aesthetic appeal, ensuring your deck is both beautiful and built to last.
The lifespan of decking materials varies: pressure-treated wood typically lasts 10-15 years with proper maintenance, cedar and redwood can last 15-20 years, and composite decking can last 25-30 years or more.
