This customer had an old very rotten deck that was a couple feet off the ground. He didn’t want to feel closed in with railing all the way around, so we lowered the new deck which removed the need for a railing. We put the stairs just outside the door and one long step along the front of the deck so that you can walk up and down the deck from anywhere. We threw in a bench for free because we had the extra materials. The result was a more functional and attractive deck and a bench that could be placed anywhere.
