In Melrose MA, It’s Out With The Old Deck And In With The New, Thanks To Archadeck
Father Time had taken its toll on this backyard deck in Melrose MA. The horizontal wood deck boards were starting to curl and separate, posing potential danger for this Melrose family and their guests.
Aesthetically, its original luster had faded way beyond its years.
And more importantly, the family wanted to enjoy the next elevated level in outdoor living leisure and relaxation, so they called Melrose local Archadeck Outdoor Living franchisees and master design consultants, Mike Chaisson and Jody Chaisson.
The Chaissons, and their professional deck building team, came up with a deck transformation solution that totally reimagined the previous deck and gave this Melrose family the outdoor living space they were wishing for.
A New Look, A Better Structure, And Enhanced Outdoor Living Comforts And Conveniences
The first item for this Melrose deck replacement was to remove the original structure. The second focus was to enlarge the footprint of the new Melrose deck design to accommodate a greater level of functionality to enjoy the best pleasures of relaxing, entertaining and refreshing one’s spirits in the invigorating Melrose fresh air.
Right from the get-go, you can notice that the installation of the new decking was installed in a diagonal pattern. This was done for two reasons.
- To give the family a new look and perspective as they entered the new Melrose deck space.
- With new decking installed at an angle of 45 degrees across the deck joists, it ensures greater durability for the new deck structure as this decking application fortifies the new deck frame.
Speaking of the new Melrose deck frame, it was thoughtfully constructed with pressure-treated lumber, as well as the stair stringers.
As for the decking material itself, our team installed DuraLife Tropical Walnut MVP Decking.
Why Did This Melrose Expert Deck Builder Choose DuraLife Decking?
The DuraLifeHardwoods Collection of eco-friendly composite decking offers rich, wood tone colors with variegated grains in the boards to replicate the look and feel of real wood.
Manufactured using recycled content and designed to stand up to the harshest Suburban Boston weather conditions, the Hardwoods Collection decking is also easy to maintain – extremely easy.
It will never need sanding, staining or sealing, it is thoughtfully made in the United States in Maine, and is protected with a 25 year limited warranty.
Its Poly-Pro Advantage fabrication results in a unique polypropylene and hardwood composite that outperforms other composite and PVC decking products.
Its CoolTrac technology ensures superior heat and slip resistance and enables DuraLife to outclass other composite and PVC decking materials on the market today.
CoolTrac material composition provides 136% more slip resistance and keeps boards up to 18% cooler than traditional composite decking -- based on wet board testing complying with ANSI/NFSI standards.
Using the DuraLife Step-Clip hidden fastening system for the installation, a fluid and seamless aesthetic was easily achieved. Step-Clip delivers a quick, easy and efficient deck installation solution that locks boards into place with a single step.
DuraLife Decking By Barrette Outdoor Living Will Make Your Deck Dreams Come True
Summertime – and the living is easy – when Archadeck Outdoor Living custom designs and builds your new, transformed, upgraded and expanded Melrose deck.
With its long warranty, vast selection of wood-like textures and color choices, long-lasting durability, and low maintenance, this new Melrose deck also features enhanced traction on the deck boards, providing a better grip underfoot, thereby reducing the risk of slipping in rainy weather and around wet pool areas.
Melrose Deck Enhancements And Embellishments To Achieve Design Perfection
To help create a more convivial atmosphere for visiting and casual conversations, we installed a AZEK TimberTech drink rail in matte white at the head of the new Melrose deck replacement so that the family and guests won’t be burdened holding their favorite beverage or phone while enjoying their time out there.
As for the custom designed bar area, it is large drink suitable and can also serve double duty as dining space.
To aid in navigating the new Melrose deck from the home’s rear landscape, our seasoned deck construction team installed black RDI graspable hand rails at the stairs.
For a flawless look from the backyard ground level, we installed 1 by 4 vertical slat skirting with ½ inch spacing.
Leaving no opportunity for perfection to be missed, we also replaced the door onto the new deck with a new Smooth-Star S2000 storm door, a beautiful addition with its high-definition panel embossments and highly energy efficient R-Values.
