This one had a lot going on - and that's exactly how we like it. The homeowner wanted a full backyard overhaul, not just a deck slapped on the back of the house. So we built a 42-foot TimberTech deck in Weathered Oak, added picture-frame border details with hidden fasteners, and finished it off with Westbury Tuscany railing. The result is a clean, high-end look that holds up for decades without the maintenance headaches of wood.
The hidden fasteners are worth talking about for a second. No screws poking through the surface. No hardware rusting and staining the boards over time. Just a smooth, uninterrupted deck surface from edge to edge. Combined with the picture-frame border, the whole thing has a finished, intentional look that you just don't get with a standard deck layout.
Below the deck, we didn't leave anything to chance. We poured a reinforced concrete slab under the full footprint - giving the homeowners a shaded, usable entertaining area that connects directly to the lower level of the house. String lights are already strung across the joists, and that space is ready to use from day one.
Out front of that under-deck area, the stamped concrete patio ties everything together. We went with a random flagstone pattern in a dark charcoal finish. The stamped steps leading down from the patio show that same texture and color all the way through - so nothing looks pieced together or mismatched. It reads as one cohesive outdoor space, not three separate projects bolted together.
When a backyard build comes together like this - deck, railing, stamped concrete, and a functional under-deck zone all working as one - that's when you really see the difference between contractors who just build decks and ones who think through the whole picture. This is the kind of work we do every day.
