DRY SPACE

Keep it dry under the deck.

Outdoor Patio with Finished Wood Ceiling - Daniel Builders

Utilize outdoor space under a deck by keeping it dry. Blog showcases turning space under a deck into a dry area for hanging-out when raining.


Finding extra space is a problem, but few realize they may be standing on the solution. Do you have a deck over 7ft tall? Recently one of our lead carpenters, Jeremy Kent, went to work underneath an existing deck to install the ZipUp Under-deck System. The result is beautiful (a definite upgrade in aesthetics) and practical (can be enjoyed rain or shine). Jeremy chronicles this project below. An "After" video is available here.
