Building Your New Deck in Bethesda, MD

There is a lot to think about when building your new deck. Thankfully, Freedom Fence and Deck is here to walk you through the options and answer any questions you have.

Deck Materials

Concerning deck materials, you have several excellent options. We shall go over the materials in general from least to most expensive.

Wood

Pressure-treated pine, western red cedar, and exotic hardwoods like Ipe are three types of lumber you can use to build your new deck. Natural wood is a lovely and more affordable deck material. You can keep it lasting a long time with routine cleaning, sanding, and staining.

Composite

Composite decks are made of recycled wood and plastic fibers. This low-maintenance deck material does not require sanding or staining and can have the appearance of natural wood. 

Vinyl

Vinyl decks are made of outdoor-grade PVC plastic and are also very easy to maintain. They come in neutral colors like white, tan, red, and gray.

Mixed

Backyard decks don’t have to be just one material. The deck might be one material, while the stairs and railings are different materials. You can mix materials to get the most out of their function and cost.

Deck Railings

Deck railings can be any of the above materials, but they can also use aluminum, steel, or glass for security and visibility.

Deck Layouts

Deck layouts consider different elements such as the dimensions, size, stair design, and elevation. The dimensions, size, and stair design will depend on what works best for traffic flow and function. Meanwhile, the elevation will depend on what floor your back door is and if your property sits on a slope. A deck can have one elevation or have multiple tiers.

Deck Additions

There are a lot of built-in additions you can add to your Bethesda backyard deck to make it functional for you. A handful of deck addition ideas are the following:

• Outdoor shade structures
• Deck lighting
• Built-in benches
• Built-in planters
• Privacy screens
• Fire features
• Water features
• Hot tubs
• Hidden storage
• And more
