HAWAII RENOVATION DECEMBER 4, 2022
PLAN AHEAD FOR YOUR
PERFECT DECK
Abig part of building your dream deck is the planning. In fact, a typical deck project can take six months (or more) from inspiration to installation. To help make your dream a reality, the fol- lowing are tips for keeping your deck project on track, on trend and on budget.
VISUALIZE THE POSSIBILITIES
When it comes to your deck’s design, there are countless possibilities — from simple ground-level styles to more elaborate multi-level decks. Ultimately, a deck should be designed around how you plan to use it. In addition to function, consider your views, neigh- bors, the prevalence of sun or shade, as well as the entrances and exits from the home and into the yard. All these factors will have an impact on your deck’s size and configuration. Once you have a general design in mind, there are great tools available to help bring your visions to life. Trex offers an AR visualizer app that allows users to experiment with different decking shapes, board colors and railing combinations against the backdrop of your own house. There are also hun- dreds of downloadable deck plans and other resources available online to help guide you through your deck- building journey.
CONSIDER CODES AND PERMITS
Consult your state, county or city offices regarding building code requirements and to learn what permits are necessary for building a deck in your area. Factor permitting into your project timeline so that progress is not stalled by waiting for inspections and approv- als. If your neighborhood has a homeowner association (HOA), make sure you understand any rules regard- ing deck size, color, product type or design. And don’t forget to check with your local utilities to locate any underground cables, wires or pipes before construction begins. Your deck builder should be able to help with this, or you can call the North American One-Call Re- ferral system at 888-258-0808 if you plan to DIY.
When choosing materials for your deck, think long term. It’s important to choose quality materials that will withstand years of wear and tear from both weather and use. High-performance, wood-alternative
