Why Install an Under-Deck Drainage System?

Instead of debating over having a deck vs patio, consider having both. With a two-story deck, meaning you have an elevated deck to create a room beneath, you can install a ceiling to create a more finished living space with lights and fans. With a protected area, you can be as creative as you like! Here are a few ideas:

• Add a big screen TV, sound system, comfortable seating, and a wet bar, and you instantly expand your party space by finishing the area beneath your two-story deck. Be sure to buy a weatherproof TV for outdoor use.
• Install a full outdoor kitchen or roll out a portable cart to your patio table and chairs for your next dinner party. Eat outside without having to worry about the forecast with your under-deck living space. Add some screening, and you won’t even have to worry about the bugs.
• Create a comfortable seating area. Think about how you’d like to use your deck for yourself, your family, and for entertaining with friends. Instead of uncomfortable lawn chairs, maybe you need a couch and chairs with fun and functional cushions. Perhaps you’d like to add a hammock or a swing. Really great seating will make you want to spend more time on the deck!
• Relax and enjoy. Nothing beats a hot tub in the quiet, private space beneath your two-story deck. Make it your weekend oasis.
• Increase your storage. Everyone these days could use a little more storage. Check out some of these creative storage ideas for under your deck.
