With an early spring on the horizon, many are planning different home improvement plans to prepare for summer. While many projects are perfect for spring, few are as ideally suited for the season as installing a new deck!
Once the weather warms up and your outdoor space becomes functional again, consider building a deck onto your home. If you’re still undecided about deck building, we’ve outlined some benefits of adding a deck to your home!
A New Deck Increases Your Home’s Value
Installing a deck is a great way to add value to your home. Decks are a massive trend in the home-buying market and will certainly help when the time comes for you to sell your house.
If increasing your home’s value is your main concern when planning your deck’s construction, consider the design and decking material you choose. While wood decks are functional and fabulous, composite decks will likely add additional value to your home.
Maximize Outdoor Entertainment
There’s nothing worse than being stuck inside on a gorgeous day. As you await those perfect Maryland temperatures, get your new deck installed far in advance. A new deck instantly expands your outdoor living space. Consider adding accessories such as lighting or furniture to add some extra pizazz, making your outdoor entertaining skills second to none. Whether you like to host parties or prefer relaxing by yourself, a residential deck installation gives you the best of both worlds.
A New Deck Adds Privacy
If your home is close to other properties, you may feel like you don’t have much privacy. Adding a new deck is a great way to increase your home’s privacy. You can build trellises that block your neighbors’ views without blocking out sunlight or build your deck walls higher than usual to create a relaxing, private lounge area.
Increase Your Home’s Storage Space
Many decks also have vacant space underneath them. This can provide valuable storage space for yard tools, snow equipment, outdoor toys, and anything else that doesn’t need to stay in the house. You can also add siding under your deck, giving whatever you store there increased protection from the elements and prying eyes.
Offering increased functionality, additional space, and home options while increasing your home’s value, building a new deck is a great investment.
