Essential considerations for successful outdoor landscaping
Before starting your composite deck project, consider the following points:
- Harmonious scale: adjust the size of the deck to that of your house to avoid a massive effect.
- Permits and local regulations: check municipal requirements in Quebec to obtain the necessary authorizations.
- Durable composite materials: choose Fiberon, TimberTech, Trex, or TruNorth for their resistance to climate variations and low maintenance.
- Furniture selection: opt for compact and modular furniture, easy to move and weather-resistant.
- Exploiting the terrain: turn a slope into an asset by incorporating discreet steps or an elegant ramp.
10 tips to enlarge and enhance your small composite deck
- Create distinct zones: place a dining area at one end and a relaxation space at the other to optimize circulation.
- Corner furniture: a rattan sectional fits perfectly into a corner, freeing up central space.
- Indoor-outdoor extension: opt for a sliding glass door for a seamless transition between the kitchen and the deck.
- Integration of natural elements: build around a tree or a rock to add character without cluttering.
- Glass railings: for an unobstructed view and a visual effect of expanded space.
- Judicious color choices: opt for Cocoa Beach or Trex Transcend Slate Gray planks to enliven the decor.
- Multifunctional furniture: benches with integrated storage to hide cushions, blankets, or accessories.
- Recessed LED lighting: subtly illuminate your composite deck without cluttering the space.
- Touches of color: bright cushions, potted flowers, and outdoor textiles to add vibrancy.
- Sun protection: install a light pergola or an awning to enjoy the deck in all seasons.
