Renovated Lower Deck and New Larger Upper Deck in Falls Church Virginia

Posted by woodmin in Untagged 

This project is in Falls Church Virginia.  We removed the decking and railing from the lower deck and completely removed the existing upper deck which had support posts in the middle of the lower deck.  We installed new decking and railing on the lower deck and built a new larger upper deck.  The upper deck was designed to not have support posts taking up the valuable deck space of the lower deck.

Sun & Rain Protection Porch in Leesburg Virginia

Posted by woodmin in Untagged 

This project is in Leesburg Virginia.  The existing deck which featured a pergola offered no real sun protection.  It is very important during the design phase to consider if and how much sun protection is needed.  A pergola can offer sun protection but it must be designed to do that.  Many builders and homeowners think just by building a pergola you will have that protection.  This is not the case.  We removed the pergola and installed an open hip roof porch with a beaded finished ceiling.  All of the trim is low maintenance PVC.  The end result enables the homeowner to have both sun and rain protection.

We built this porch several years ago in Lansdowne Virginia.  It was time to rescreen and re-stain.  After removing the screen and cleaning the wood surfaces we applied Cabot semitransparent stain to the previously stained areas.  It came out great.

Evergrain Composite Decking - Arlington Virginia

Posted by woodmin in Deck Restoration Virginia , Deck Remodeling Virginia , Deck Construction Virginia , Deck Company Virginia , Deck Building Plans Virginia , Deck Building Materials Virginia , Deck Building Idea Virginia , Deck Builders Virginia , Custom Designed Decks Virginia , Composite Decking Virginia , Composite Decking DC , Building a Wood Deck Virginia

This deck was built in an historic district of Arlington Virginia.  We not only had to obtain the building permit but also had to deal with the historic review process.  We were allowed to use Evergrain composite decking but no composite railing or PVC was allowed.  The support posts had to be oversized and the railing had to meet the historic guidelines.  Cabot solid color stain was used to match the deck to the existing trim.
