Why do homeowners choose to install a deck?
A deck allows homeowners to extend their living space and create a functional, inviting outdoor area. With an expansive view of Sammamish Lake, our client wanted to get the most out of their home by adding an additional area to relax and entertain outside. A deck provides a large space where guests can gather or you can take in the beauty of nature from your own backyard.The benefits of a deck awning

We designing this deck with a focus on opening up more space for the homeowner. Our team used high-quality wood for the boards, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

An awning to match the roof
The homeowner chose to install an awning above the deck that matched the roof of the home itself, providing maximum protection from sun and rain. This awning was customized to ensure that it would fit perfectly with this space and allowed for even more outdoor furniture to be placed beneath it. This way, the family has ample seating and space to enjoy the panorama of the Bellevue area and Sammamish Lake. We also installed a fan for those warmer Bellevue evenings. The homeowner especially loved this touch.The railing system
