Lakefront TimberTech Deck

Deckscapes built this beautiful, multi-level lakefront deck with stairs leading down to their pool deck for our clients on Lake Wylie, SC. The main decking color installed was Driftwood from TimberTech’s Reserve Collection and the offset border color was Espresso from TimberTech’s Legacy Collection. Using a different color for the deck border can really make the main decking color stand out. The decking is fastened to the framing using hidden fasteners and color matched screws where needed. The railing is from TimberTech and is their Impression Rail Express in the Bronze color which matches the Espresso border very nicely. Instead of standard vertical ballusters, the client asked us to install a horizontal, stainless steel cable railing. They wanted a very clean, very minimal looking rail to not block the pool or lake view. We added some TimberTech LED riser lighting to the stairs for more ambiance and safety when walking on the deck at night.

Lakeside Trex Deck and Pavers on Lake Wylie, SC

This beautiful lake front home on Lake Wylie, SC was in serious need of an overhaul when we first got there. Our clients told us of their wishes and concerns for this project and we went to work. We installed a multi level Trex Transcends deck in the Island Mist color with a matching Trex border and hidden fasteners. The upper deck had a Trex Rain Escape system installed over it prior to the decking being laid down. All of the stairs and risers match the decking color. The railing used for the decks and stair areas is the Trex Signature black aluminum railing. We installed a Trex lighting package which included LED riser lights and black post Wedge lights. We installed a horizontal wood skirting under the deck areas and stained it to match the decking or PVC fascia. We created a covered outdoor living space under the upper deck and sunroom so our clients could come off of the lake or hot tub and relax without going up into the house. This area included a new Belgard Dimension 12 paver floor, 5 1/2” tongue and groove painted wood ceiling with recessed LED can lights, painted shiplap walls and a new, separate bathroom area equipped with a sink and a toilet. For the finishing touch, we installed a new Belgard paver pathway with stone steps , LED path lights and landscaping leading from the new deck up to the driveway. The project exceeded expectations and our amazing clients love it.
