Top Deck Design Trend of 2019: Deck Drainage Systems

Protect Your Deck, Expand Your Home

Want to take your deck to the next level this year? Check out the incredibly popular Under Deck Drainage trend that is sweeping the deck-building community this year. As families are growing and expanding, the majority of people are wishing they had more room in their home to both gather and spread out; store seasonal items or create a little place of their own.

Rather than spend their hard-earned money enduring a multiple month-long home addition process, most deck owners are skipping the pain of extended construction and creating outdoor living spaces for their family and friends to enjoy together. With systems installing as simply as in a few hours, Under Deck Drainage systems create an entirely new lower-level room that will remain dry and clear throughout the year.

So, cover up splintering old wooden joists and beams while gaining usable living space right outside your own home. Add an outdoor kitchen for backyard BBQs no matter the weather, or a cozy little nook to hide away from the hectic day; the choices and options are endless. The only question is: Which one is for me?
