Decks

#1 These decks are found in western Waukesha county in the village of Oconomowoc Lake.
Due to their lack of maintenance, these existing cedar decks were at the end of their lives at only 9 years old. The owner's had requested a low maintenance deck made of wood and one of the new decks would also need to prevent rain from falling on their patio below.

The owners agreed to to the use of a wood product called Ipe, also known as ironwood for the floors, posts and top and bottom rails, the balusters were to made using powder coated aluminum. Lighted post caps and stair tread lights were added for night time safety. A Trex Escape water collection system was chosen to channel the water from the patio below to a gutter system. The under side of the deck was finished off with tongue and groove cedar, and can lighting and a ceiling fan was added as well.
