DIY Deck Remodel: A Summer Project and Backyard Retreat
Gallery From Ken: This DIY project in Hamilton, Ontario was fully designed, constructed and detailed by myself over the course of this past summer, including 850+ square feet of Covington interlock patio, a Triple H Concrete product. The maintenance-free deck is approximately 360 square feet of Solstice Decking, coordinated in two-tone color to match both the high-end Jacuzzi J-420 spa, as well as the two-tone interlock. As you can see, I have creatively utilized a DEKOR® Perfect Panel within my project to illuminate the step up onto my second tier deck. The powered electronics are also quite unique within this project, as they are located within a weatherproof utility box beneath a 24-inch slate inlay that enhances the center of the lower deck. This panel is easily lifted up to access the electronics if required for service. Coupled with the low voltage LED step lighting, as well as the halogen soffit lighting from above, this outdoor oasis has certainly added great value and aesthetic appeal to my backyard retreat. The last photos detail the use of the glass Perfect Panel. DEKOR® Products featured DEKOR® Dek Dots LED Deck Lights DEKOR® Perfect Panels Glass Panel

Deck Remodel by Straitline Features Innovative Design and Spectacular Lighting
Gallery This Greenwood Village, Colorado project was a complete facelift. The existing deck consisted of boring square lines and rotting floor joists. The small staircase was poorly positioned and the grill resided in a corner against the railing. Our remodel consisted of new composite Moistureshield decking throughout and a new radius curve between pillars. The new portion of the curve is supported using custom timber post and beam work, complemented by matching knee braces. The stairs were expanded and reshaped for better and more comfortable use. The existing grill was replaced with a new built-in Wolf 30” cooktop set in a custom leathered finish granite countertop. Below the grill sits a matching Wolf warming drawer and to the side, storage doors. Supporting the grill area is more custom timber work. The underside of the deck was outfitted with a Colorado Deck Drain Experts water removal system, allowing dry space below, even in the heaviest of rains. What really set this deck apart was the lighting. Using DEKOR™ riser lights paired with DEKOR™ post caps, ample soft light is provided. In the late evening, this project shines, thanks to DEKOR™ lighting! About Straitline Decks, Inc. The Straitline companies started in 1994 when owner Don Rasmussen founded Straitline Framing.
