A New Wood Deck for a Vintage 1920’s Home in Macon, GA

When it comes to meeting special requirements for an outdoor living project, Archadeck of Central Georgia will partner with you to bring your new space through completion. 

We worked with this Macon family to achieve very specific outdoor living requirements.  Before this project began, we facilitated acquiring a variance from planning and zoning, ensuring this family would be able to enjoy their backyard space as they wanted to.

This family in the Ridge Avenue area conveyed not only a desire to have a more usable space out back, but their project required some special consideration, as well.  With children, a low-to-grade wood deck with surrounding steps was an obvious choice.  This option also allowed Archadeck of Central Georgia to keep this cozy backyard’s living space lower so that a view of the homes beyond the privacy fence was obstructed.  This will do the same from beyond the confines of the fence, maintaining privacy while using the deck.  Not only will the steps from the deck accommodate lots of playtime and entertaining foot traffic, but they also create extra seating and lend themselves to seasonal décor, like potted plants.

A deck with ample area in a small space is possible with proper design considerations.

If you think your cozy backyard area will not accommodate a deck to fill all your needs, talk with Archadeck of Central Georgia.  We were able to build an impressive deck expanse for these Macon homeowners, with enough space for grilling, dining, and relaxing.

Since the home has a 4-foot drop-off from the back door to the ground, we built a new pressure-treated wood step.  As well, we built a step for the second back door, which is no longer a usable door.  This provides a cohesive aesthetic, and even additional play space or seating.  The low-to-grade deck design only required railing on one corner, keeping the deck expanse feeling open and un-cramped.

Vintage homes require newfangled solutions.

As these homeowners live in a 1920’s-era home, there are no gutters.  We built a special feature on their deck, by way of the planter box, which will be filled with plants and gravel to create a drain tile, where rainwater will come from the house, into the planter, and through to the yard underneath.  These homeowners innovated the same draining system in their yard, as well.  A testament to the adage, “Necessity is the mother of invention.”
