Forever Home Transformed with Dual Steel-Framed Composite Decks

Creating a Lifetime of Outdoor Enjoyment

Our clients already had two existing decks and a deck cover on their home, but they wanted to upgrade to a more durable, modern, and visually appealing outdoor living space.  Knowing this was their forever home, they wanted to invest in a design that would last for decades with minimal maintenance.  Together, we created two stunning steel-framed composite decks that enhance both the beauty and longevity of their home.

Built to Last: Steel Deck Framing and Composite Decking

To achieve maximum strength and durability, both decks were designed using steel deck framing, a solution that does not warp or weather, ensuring long-term stability.  After reviewing the numerous options available, our clients chose composite decking for its low maintenance and elegant finish.

Each deck features a double board picture frame border, with deck boards laid at a 90-degree angle to the joists for a clean, polished look.  The upper deck showcases TimberTech Legacy Pecan as the main field color, beautifully accented with a TimberTech Legacy Mocha border.  On the lower level, the homeowners selected Deckorators Vista Ironwood for the body and Deckorators Vista Driftwood for the border – creating a warm, cohesive palette that complements their home’s architecture.

Elegant Details: Custom Stucco Columns and Wrought Iron Railings

Instead of leaving the steel support posts visible, the homeowners wanted a more refined, architectural finish.  We collaborated with our masonry partner to build stucco columns that mirror the home’s exterior and provide a sophisticated, structural aesthetic.

To complete the look, we worked with Creative Metals to craft a custom wrought iron railing.  The design features 3″ x 3″ posts with belly-style balusters that curve gently outward and finish with a graceful curl at the top of each baluster.  The result is a railing that adds character, artistry, and a touch of timeless elegance to the decks.

A Forever Deck for a Forever Home

This dual-deck transformation perfectly embodies our clients’ vision of a durable, beautiful, and maintenance-friendly outdoor living space.  With steel deck framing, composite decking, and custom wrought iron deck railing, these decks are built to endure Colorado’s climate while providing a stunning setting for family gatherings for years to come.
