St. Charles Deck Project Comes To A Close

Do you remember this old concrete patio in St. Charles? This is what the patio area looked like just eight weeks ago. By this time, we had already replaced the patio door and cut-in two new Pella windows to overlook the new deck. You can see the door and windows in the upper left corner of this photo. Since this time we have been busy with backhoes, bobcats, saws, shovels, concrete trucks and landscapers to get the project to its completed state.
The new deck has Azek composite decking making up the floor, skirts and benches. The new rails are constructed of stainless steel posts with stainless steel cables for balusters. It’s a very cool look that goes great with this contemporary home!
You can see in the photos the new concrete storage shed that we constructed underneath this deck. The shed is 8 feet by 14 feet and has fiberglass doors to keep out the weather (and critters). Check out the great stone wall constructed by Western DuPage Landscaping. The two walls together hold back about seven feet of earth and make for some great planting beds. In the next couple of years once the plantings fill in this will be a great space.
