  3. Introduction How can you transform your outdoor space so that you and your family soak up the most sun? Constructing a deck is a great way to start. A deck can elevate your backyard, giving you a convenient place to spend time to relax, cook and eat meals, and even host outdoor parties and events. These structures can come in all shapes and sizes and can be built to suit your vision for outdoor living. Let's look at some space-transforming models that deck builders can construct to help you get the most fun in the sun.

  4. Platform Decks This style is simple and most basic. With one level built low to the ground, the platform deck is the classic, functional style that can serve as the stage for all kinds of warm-weather activities. You can install built-in planters and bench seating, or even a gazebo section to spruce up this design.

  5. Freestanding Decks A freestanding model stands apart from your house, rather than running right alongside it. Most decks are bolted to your home's frame, but a freestanding model is a good option if your house does not allow for this. Freestanding foundations are built with footings, posts, and beams. This model can be placed anywhere in your yard, so it gives you some freedom in choosing how to open up your space. It's also a nice idea to have a roof built over your freestanding deck so you can store a grill or even install a bar.

  6. Multilevel Decks A multilevel model usually has two, three, or even four main platforms joined by stairs or walkways. These are a great option if your backyard is sloped, as the levels will follow the contour of the land. Connecting each level with a short flight of stairs allows you to enjoy different views from each part of the structure - a key consideration if you have a scenic backyard. The multilevel option also works great alongside an in-ground pool, as deck builders can make them ascend upward off the water to house chairs and create a nice poolside experience.

  7. Raised Decks If the first floor of your home is raised off the land due to the property's terrain, you'll probably want to look into a raised deck building. This style can provide a beautiful accent to your home and can be optimized for the best possible views of your property. You'll have to follow safety precautions strictly when installing a raised model: railings, stairways, and lattices are almost always essential. The extra precautions may be worth it for the stunning outdoor vistas that this style can provide, day in and day out.
