Decks & Patios

Outdoor spaces can be turned into highly functional and attractive areas with the addition of features such as decks & patios. These features make the area more usable even when the weather is not too good. Aquastone Landscaping is a company that has been creating stunning landscapes for customers across Tumwater, Lacey, Olympia, Shelton and the Greater Puget Sound. Though both these features are added to outdoor spaces, they are both very different from each other.

Decks

These generally extend into the yard and are an extension of the indoor spaces of your home. It adds to the spaciousness of your house and brings the outdoors into these living areas. These are like elevated floors that could be covered with concrete, brick or natural stone pavers. Many customers also opt for wooden decks or ones that are covered with synthetic materials. We use the best materials in the construction of these decks and ensure that the look complements the look of the indoor spaces

Patios

These are different from decks and are part of the yard. They have a compacted base which will be made of crushed stone and has a sand-bedding above it. The surface could be covered pavers or poured concrete. Patios are always installed directly on the ground and they do not have the support of a base structure. These too add to the openness of the indoor spaces and create a very seamless look between the outdoor and the indoor spaces of your home.

Decks & Patios- The Differences

In most instances, decking installations require a permit as they become an extension of the house structure. On the other hand, since a patio is more of a yard structure, you will not require a permit to have it installed. We handle end-to-end design and installation of these features and have the knowledge, experience and the resources to complete the work to your 100% satisfaction. In some instances, these installations could be a part of the entire landscaping project while in others; it may be a standalone one.

There is no doubt about the fact that decks & patios will add to the beauty of your home and to the curb appeal of your property. Some homeowners also prefer to have a railing running around the periphery of the deck – this can increase the cost of the decking. In every instance, we keep an eye on the quality of materials used and ensure that all the work is carried out with the least amount of disruption to your daily schedule.
