Does an outdoor living space add value to your home?

Top 10 Outdoor Living Space Features That Boost Home Value

Looking for ways to improve the resale value of your home?  With additions like patios and decks, fire pits and outdoor kitchens, and even swimming pools, you can improve the chances of selling your home for more and (in some cases) quicker. Below are the top ten exterior features that can provide better returns for homeowners!

  • Garage Doors 
  • Front Door
  • Patios
  • Outdoor Kitchens
  • Decks
  • Fire Pits or a space that would accommodate. 
  • Pergola or Extended Roof Overhang
  • Swimming Pool
  • Professional Landscaping 
  • Outdoor Lighting 

Patios


Patios are a sought-after amenity for most homes, making them a valuable addition when trying to sell a home quickly. On average, the cost of building a patio can be as high as $20-$50 sq ft depending on size and materials used. That said, it’s estimated that well-designed patios not only add 8-10% home value, but also earn an ROI of over 80%. Patio options typically include stamped concrete or paver patios. It's worth going with a premium paver or upgrading to a decorative / stamped concrete. Patios designed with a deck, or a roof are very popular as a deck the whole width of the back of your home may look overwhelming. We recommend leaving a good amount of yard space as well for potential future buyers. Even though we recommend tailoring your backyard to your family's needs, resale value is always very important to us. 

Get the best return on your outdoor patio with these tips:

  • DO: Add lighting to enjoy your outdoor living room in the evening and add patio furniture for more comfort.
  • DON’T: Take up too much backyard space. Many families love big backyards and green space, so leave enough space for kids and pets.

Outdoor living is the new standard. Decks have a very high ROI. Most Realtors will tell you that a quality low maintenance deck is a great selling feature.  Decks are highly rated for the return on investment. A deck adds extra living space to your home at a relatively low price compared to building an alternative enclosed area in your home. These days a deck and outdoor living space is the new home addition. 

 

Do I need a permit to build a deck?

Almost all deck projects require a building permit, but we handle this process for our clients. My advice to anyone considering building a deck is to first check with your HOA to see if there are any limitations and also the local zoning department to find out if you have any setback requirements that may cause you to need a variance.  Even if you are just replacing decking, adding new steps and railings many building departments still require a building permit so it's always best to check to see if it's needed.  Many contractors will tell clients that if they are rebuilding a deck in the exact same location that a building permit is not needed. This is not true. If you are ever in question if a building permit is required, we recommend checking with your local building department. Permits are not usually required typically for minor deck repairs. 

 

Can we use our existing framing and install new decking and rails?

We do not recommend keeping your old deck framing if your deck structure is over 5 years old. We do not warranty the existing framing and there may be noticeable flaws in your existing structure that may be more noticeable with the new decking. We recommend a 40 point deck inspection prior if going with this option and can offer this as an additional service as well.  All we can do is make recommendations but it is your final decision. The framing of a deck is the most important part, so why install high-end decking on framing that will not last as long as your new decking and rails when overall the framing is not that much more of an expense.

7 Reasons Why Building New is Better than Re-Decking

While re-decking looks excellent on the surface, in practice, we’ve seen it let many homeowners down. Here are seven reasons why building a stunning new deck makes more sense than choosing deck restoration.

  1. Limited Design Options — When you build from the ground up, the sky is the limit. You have nearly unlimited creative possibilities, so you can create something new or fix something you disliked about your previous deck. Whether you want to build a covered porch, a two-story deck, or something equally exciting, the freedom to do what you want is yours. Deck designs have only gotten more ambitious and exciting, and your new project can be on the cutting edge. 
  2. Fewer Savings than You Think — The prospect of saving money is the big reason that re-decking has such an appeal, but once again, it sounds better than it is. When you go with a deck restoration, you don’t have to pay for the frame, only the deck boards. Here’s the thing though: framing is the cheapest part of the deck project. Deck restoration only saves the frame, which doesn’t provide you with enough savings to make it worthwhile. We compare re-decking to repainting a broken-down 1994 Ford Truck because it has new tires.
  3. Holes in Your Warranty — At All Decked Out, we stand behind our work with a great warranty, and most reputable deck companies do the same. However, contractors can only stand behind their work, so if you choose re-decking, you’ll likely ONLY get a warranty to cover the new deck boards, not you're deck framing. If you build fresh, you get a full-coverage warranty.
  4. Old Structure Can’t Always Go Composite — When you keep a 15 to 20-year-old deck structure, you get 15 to 20 years of performance. Depending on joist placement, some older deck foundations can’t properly support low-maintenance, ultra-popular composite decking. So if you choose re-decking, you may end up stuck with outdated wood deck boards. Learn more about composite vs. wooden decks.
  5. No Outdoor KitchensOutdoor kitchens are one of the hottest additions to any outdoor living space. People love cooking gourmet meals in a full kitchen on their deck or porch. When you build a new area, you can center it around your custom outdoor kitchen. Unfortunately, re-decking a 15 or 20-year-old structure won’t give you the strength to incorporate a proper outdoor kitchen. 
  6. Your Deck May Not Meet Building Codes — Another result of placing a fresh set of boards on an antique frame, your restored deck may not meet building codes for your area. If there have been significant changes to the regulations in your area, your decade-old deck won’t be legal. This can prove to be expensive and inconvenient — we’ve seen it too many times to be able to recommend re-decking.
  7. It’ll Look Exactly the Same — This reason might not be quite as practical, but this is the main reason why re-decking tends to disappoint. Even though deck restoration is slightly cheaper, it’s still a significant investment. There’s nothing more disappointing than investing thousands of dollars and having the same outdated deck, just a little better. When you revolutionize your outdoor space with a brand-new showpiece deck, jaws will drop. Most of your guests probably won’t even notice when you go with re-decking.
 


Is there a perfect decking product out there?

There are pros and cons to every product. We can go over the pros and cons but highly recommend weighing all of your options. Decking has evolved over the years. Typically, the new lines of decking tend to be the better performing or better color options.  PVC decking tends to be the best for keeping cool to the feet especially near pool areas but does tend to contract and expand quite a bit more and framing should be spaced closer together. It also has a tendency to warp more from Low E window reflections. The capped composites tend to be hotter to the feet but gives a more natural wood look. The best on the market currently is Deckorators Voyage decking. It's a mineral based polypropylene product and has no wood fillers. It's extremely durable, has a great warranty and has proven to perform well.  With it being a totally different technology than many other competing decking products it sure has made a mark in the industry and has been our go to choice for decking. 

 

Who handles the design?

We do!  Our best designs to date have been bouncing ideas back and forth with our clients to get feedback and come up with something really usable and unique that suits their family's needs.  Joe Hagen the owner of All Decked Out and award-winning designer will most likely be working up the design for your backyard. We work with the building departments on a daily basis and are very qualified to generate plans for your project. The building department has a plans examinator on staff that reviews project plans prior to providing the permits for the project.  We study the codes of our industry and have some national award-winning designs. If your project needs engineering plans or we need plans from an architect, we prefer to work with them directly and collaborate on design so they fully understand how we build our decks to ensure we can still deliver an amazing, finished product. We need engineers and architects in our line of work, but we have the field experience to bring the project to life. 

 

Does All Decked Out build wood decks? 

Even though wood decking is cheaper, we have built and serviced enough decks over the years to know that in most cases the extra money spent on composite decking is well worth the saved maintenance, work, and long-term aesthetics and durability. Wood is costly in the long term due to the constant maintenance it requires and is not worth the investment unless you're getting your home on the market and need to sell your home with a deck. We are in business to make our clients happy but with a wood deck we have no control with what the wood will do and how it will perform. We have decided to focus all of our efforts on composite low maintenance higher quality decks. We no longer build wood decks.

paver patios

From traditional shapes and textures to the most advanced technology and unique styles, the choices available in our paver collection are unrivaled in the industry. Whether you're dreaming of an intimate patio, a practical driveway or a luxurious outdoor living space

stamped concrete

Patios made of stamped concrete are created in much the same ways as regular poured concrete patios, but the our installers put some artwork into it to make it one of a kind. After the concrete is poured we apply a high quality sealer to really make the colors stand out.  The result is a natural-looking, custom patio. Stamped concrete is a non-perfect, perfectly crafted work of art to try to mimic the look of natural stone. 

louvered roofs

Louvered Roofs are an all-aluminum structure that can provide shade or sun with the push of a button.  Made with extruded thick aluminum and mechanical motors these systems do come with a higher price tag. With the closed setting, you’re safe from rain, turning your open cover into a roof that will keep you dry. Being mechanical these systems will last a long time but there will be some maintenance required and motor replacements to consider. These systems do not come with a manufacture labor backed warranty so in the event services are needed additional labor costs should be considered. They do come with 20 year manufacture warranty on the framing components. 

roofs & pergolas

Roof structures are a great addition to any outdoor living space. Roofs can help you enjoy quiet time with your family or invite others over for that special occasion no matter what mother nature brings. Installing a roof over your new deck can offer much-needed shade, show charm, and complement a great deck or a patio. This becomes the extension of your style, personality, and your home. Roof structures are the first thing that passers-by and visitors see. The proper roof design for your home is a very important decision and there are several options that may work for your home.

Outdoor Kitchens

A top benefit of having an outdoor kitchen is that they’re perfect spaces for entertaining. When food is grilled out on the patio, guests can gather around the BBQ grill and socialize as dinner is being prepared. It might get crowded in an indoor kitchen when everyone hangs out with the cook, but outside there’s much more space. You can increase the comfort for your party guests by adding patio heaters, outdoor furnishings, strings of lights, and some mood music.  An outdoor kitchen is an investment you can use and enjoy for many years to come.
