Outdoor Rooms | Covered Decks, Pergolas, Kitchens & Hot-Tub Decks

Six rooms

Design the room, then the floor under it.

A pergola, roof or hot tub changes the loads, the footings and sometimes the permit, so we decide on them first.

Covered living space you can use in the rain and into the shoulder seasons.

Roof and snow loads carried down to their own footings
Ceiling finishes, fans and pot lights planned in
Code note: Covered decks usually need a building permit, even close to the ground.

Filtered shade and a sense of enclosure without a full roof.

Cedar or steel, open slats or louvres
Posts land on footings, not just on the decking
Code note: Adding a solid roof or tying into the house can change the permit.

Grills, counters and storage laid out around how you cook.

Durable counters and weather-rated storage
Clear working space around the grill
Code note: Gas lines and electrical are done by licensed trades, with permits where required.

Screen the neighbours and the wind while keeping the light.

Step-in or set-down tubs, ready for four seasons.

Step lights, post caps and soft glow for safe evenings.

Every stair tread lit, not just the top
Low-glare fixtures on dimmers or timers
Code note: Electrical work by a licensed electrician; permits where required.
