One of the easiest and most effective ways to improve your home is to build a deck. This is a simple project for your remodeling contractor and provides several major benefits for a relatively small cost. Whether you’re planning to sell soon or are staying long-term, here are just a few reasons to consider one of these structures for your home.

Why You Should Build a Deck

1. Added Value

A well-built and maintained deck is a popular feature and can add thousands of dollars to the sales price of your home. Not only is it an attractive asset for potential buyers who want to enjoy time outdoors, but it also adds to your home’s curb appeal—and that initial impression translates directly to more and better offers.

2. More Living Space

If you want to have more space to stretch out and relax, but a home addition is outside your budget, a remodeling contractor may recommend adding a deck. While the deck isn’t technically part of the square footage of your home, it is a functional space where you or members of your family can spend time. This will help the home feel bigger, without the cost and fuss of a more extensive remodel.

3. Enjoyable Entertaining

A furnished deck is a beautiful place to entertain guests. You’ll be able to enjoy the outdoors and show off the best features of your yard while remaining in the comfort of deck furniture. For even better group events, ask your remodeling contractor to add a grill, fire pit, or outdoor kitchen you can use whenever you have company.
