Bring style, comfort, and value to your outdoor space.
If you only remember 5 things about backyard decks, let these be them:
A backyard deck is an outdoor platform built from wood, composite, or PVC materials that extends your living space into your yard. It can be attached to your home or freestanding, and customized with railings, seating, or coverings. Unlike patios, decks elevate the living area and create versatile space for dining, entertaining, or relaxing.
Adding a backyard deck provides both lifestyle and financial benefits:
| Type | Best For | Benefits |
| Ground-Level Decks | Smaller yards or flat landscapes | Budget-friendly, seamless with landscaping |
| Raised Decks | Homes with sloped yards or second floors | Offers views, space beneath for storage or patio |
| Multi-Level Decks | Large or uneven yards | Creates separate spaces for dining, lounging, and play |
| Covered Decks | All-weather use | Protection from sun/rain, options for pergolas or roofs |
| Poolside Decks | Pools, hot tubs, or spas | Slip-resistant, designed for wet environments |
The material you choose impacts cost, appearance, and long-term maintenance.
