Panel Discussion

This short pile of aluminum panels will soon be installed as the new underdeck ceiling. Aluminum makes an excellent panel material because it will never rust, is easy to remove for periodic cleaning and will last for many years if you take care of it.

Expand Your Playing Field

Having a deck is a wonderful way to enjoy the outdoors and your backyard but you could expand your outside living room with some hardscaping (add a courtyard and dining area) and the addition of an underdeck for larger social gatherings.

Image the Possibilities

Here is an example of a completed underdeck system which turned a previously unused space into one where you can have a cookout, a card party or just enjoy a quiet hideaway for reading or relaxing. Notice the white gutter on the left which effectively channels all rainwater runoff from the upper deck out into the backyard.

Color Me Cocoa

The range of color possibilities for underdeck systems is endless. Why settle for a traditional white ceiling when you can paint it green, Colonial red, antique ivory or cocoa brown (as pictured here).
