Under Deck Drainage
An elevated deck can double as a roof, offering an affordable way to add value and functionality to your home. At All Decked Out, we custom-build our own systems to ensure exceptional results. By installing a protective EPDM layer over the joists before the decking is installed, you can achieve dual benefits: safeguarding the structural framing and creating a usable, sheltered space below. Gutters and downspouts are always included. A finished ceiling is a great addition to these systems.
Regardless of how you decide to use your new, improved – and protected – space under your deck, with All Decked Out you can rest assured that your investment is protected for decades to come. While these systems may not be 100% waterproof a vinyl ceiling or pvc ceiling is recommended. A finished ceiling is not required but does put a nice touch on any project. Lights, ceiling fans, speakers are common added features.
Benefits of an Under-Deck Drainage System
- Creates Usable Outdoor Space
An under-deck drainage system transforms the area beneath your deck into a dry, usable space that can be converted into a patio, storage area, or additional living space. - Protects Deck Structure
By channeling water away from the deck’s framing using systems that go over the top of the framing, they prevent moisture buildup, reducing the risk of rot, mold, and structural damage to the deck joists and beams. - Extends Deck Lifespan
Keeping the deck structure dry increases its durability and longevity, minimizing the need for future repairs or replacements. - Increases Home Value
A well-protected deck with a usable space below adds value to your home by enhancing outdoor living options and overall property appeal. - Improves Aesthetic Appeal
Concealed drainage systems maintain a clean, polished look underneath the deck, making the space more attractive for leisure or storage use. - Enhances Comfort
The system creates a dryer, sheltered area, providing shade and protection from rain, so you can enjoy your outdoor space in various weather conditions. - Supports Future Enhancements
An under-deck drainage system is an excellent foundation for adding lighting, ceiling fans, or other amenities, making it easier to upgrade your outdoor area in the future.
