In Sacramento there is no better time to start the planning process for building your trex deck. The planning and prep work is a huge part of the process in the deck building project. Now is a great time to get started!

As a Sacramento deck builder we love walking our customers through the process. Here are some great tips we have gathered over the years to help you plan the Trex deck of your dreams:

Get Inspired Digitally

You, as a homeowner, have so many online resources to help you get inspired and find creative ideas for your deck. Social Media is a great place to start. There are several social media networks that cater toward homeowners, including Houzz and Pinterest!

Trex.com has several galleries that can serve as inspiration also. They have provided galleries that showcase hundreds of projects in different styles and sizes. Trex also have a video series they created called “Trexperts” that walks homeowners through the planning process of getting the Trex deck of your dreams. The video series features HGTV design experts Paul Lafrance and Kate Campbell. Kate and Paul share their experience and humor with you to answer some of the key questions about deck building. Some examples are comparing Trex decking with wood, how to tell Trex from its competitors and what things to consider when starting you deck building project!

Get right into the design

Any design project, whether it is an interior or outdoor project starts with the same questions! Such as, what will be the use of the deck? Will it be used for grilling, relaxing, socializing, or a combination of the above? Once you have the answer to that question the next step is to figure out how to incorporate those activities into the deck design. At Deome2Builders we are experts at helping you create the perfect Sacramento deck.

Decide details of your deck

There are a number of different design elements to choose from when designing your deck. These elements are a great way to customize your deck to fit your style and look! Color is the first element to consider, the great news is that Trex offers lots of them! You can choose from a wide variety of colors, all of which are fade resistant.
