Throw A Party On Your New Deck

By Leroy Jenkins


Is your desk now in the the play room? Have you been relocated to your basement or family room? Running out of space to store your stuff? Summer is around the corner again and it's a great time to look at how a deck can help extend your outdoor living space. Also, if you're looking for better ways to utilize the space you already have, then take a look out your back window to where your new deck could be.

Expanding a home's outdoor living space is a popular trend, and many New Jersey homeowners have wasted space underneath their existing decks that could be better utilized. But, while typical wood decks have gaps between the boards, they provide no protection from the elements to the space below. New aluminum systems provide a water tight seal that protects the area below.

If you need extra space for storage, or an extra entertaining area, the lower level is instantly transformed into a usable space keeping you and your stuff dry. And keeping the area dry isn't the only benefit of aluminum decking offers over wood and composites. "Aluminum is the perfect material for decking," explains Humbolt. "It is able to with- stand the most extreme elements. It does not rust, rot, warp, or splinter. It will not freeze or crack."

So many choices available! If you choose the old-fashioned look or a new sleek design you can't go wrong. Go with a beautiful glass surface or maybe composite adornments. And the greatest things of all is... you never have to deal with repairing or replacing a single thing! The only thing you will need to do is take a brush and soap a few times a year to keep your new deck completely immaculate looking. "The components never rot or get worn out so you never need to worry about a thing," explains Lenny Owens, a Bergen County Deck Builder. Plus, there are so many choices of coloring that you can truly make this a deck of your own. Find a deck company who has these options available.

Once your deck is finished, there's no end to the ways you can decorate it. Add potted or hanging plants - the water runoff won't harm your aluminum deck like it would wood. Add a table with an umbrella and comfortable chairs, and you're set to enjoy the nice weather. The deck is also the perfect place for your grill, as most decks are built off the kitchen. Add some benches for extra seating, and you're ready to entertain.
