Ability to meet your needs as you age
Better planning will always deliver a better end result.
As such, here are some additional things we recommend you consider.
15.
16. Clip pictures that reflect the look (or even specific
features) you want. Let your builder know if you
have strong feelings (positive or negative) about
specific materials. Ensure that your personality
and lifestyle preferences shine through.
Luckily today, as the outdoor living space market
continues to grow, there are exciting new additions
coming to market each season. As the number
of building materials can be overwhelming, be
sure to talk to your builder about the best options
to suit your needs and landscape.
“I want my addition to
stand out,complementing my home and reflecting my style.”

Your local Archadeck office is familiar with the
most popular building materials and can provide
advice and guidance regarding the major
advantages and disadvantages associated
with your preferred selections. Be sure to ask
your contractor how the materials will change
in appearance as they age, then decide what
best suits your taste, your tolerance for ongoing
maintenance, and your budget.
