How to Build a Deck

A 10 step process describing how to build a pressure treated deck. This is a 2 level deck with benches, a bbq island, and a pergola.

The bbq island contains plenty of counter space, a cold water sink, a portable bbq, and a mini fridge. Pressure treated wood and cement boards were used to build the bbq island while stone effects was used for the finishing. The backside of the deck has a door of storage and access to the plumbing. This is a great place to store fire-burning wood and extra propane tanks.

No rails were used in the building process, benches and stairs protect the perimeter of the deck.

The stair treads were overhung by 2 inches so that rope lighting could be installed under it. This provides ample lighting for each step and warmth to the overall ambiance.

The pergola was made with 4×4 posts instead of the usual 2×6′s or 2×8′s. Adding notches to the pergola beams allowed me to place my posts on an angle to give it a diamond shape look. The fibreglass columns add beauty to the architecture.

The two tone stains add a unique perspective to the deck. Use semi-transparent stain instead of a solid stain. With semi-transparent the stain just fades over time; solid stains will chip like paint and has to be sanded. For new wood fresh from the mill remember to remove the mill glaze before staining. This allows the stain to penetrate deeper into the wood allowing for a longer life span.

The funrniture was bought from Gracious Living and the furnishings (plants and candles) from IKEA.
