There’s nothing like spending a relaxing summer afternoon on an outdoor deck. Aside from the additional living space that decks provide, they can also function as a decorative element that adds to your home’s overall value. This dual-purpose function is the reason why decks are second only to residential roofing in the top most popular exterior remodeling projects this year.
Let our professional builders and home improvement experts at Masters Roofing show you a few ways to spruce up your deck and get it ready for some summer entertaining.
Make Colors Pop-out
Choosing colors for your deck or any other part of your home’s exterior is pretty much like walking a tightrope. You want a good balance between giving the area a fresh new look but you don’t want it to stand out like a sore thumb against the rest of your home. As far as the deck itself goes, you want to stick to one color scheme to keep everything nice and cohesive. However, choose a scheme that complements the existing color of your roof, siding, windows, and doors.
Keep in mind that you don’t want to have a roof repair or replacement just to you match your deck. Instead, it should be the other way around. Your deck must match your existing colors.
Accessorize Wisely
Outdoor living areas are tricky to furnish, especially in Tennessee where the weather could be a nice 80 degrees one day, then pouring rain the next. Choose seats that are resistant to direct sunlight, rain showers and even snow. Metal is a good choice for outdoor chairs, benches, tables, counters and other accessories you want on your deck.
