Wood Deck with Smart Panel Skirting & Aluminum Picket Railing

Scarborough
Completed July 2025

This project involved the construction of a custom wood deck designed to deliver natural warmth, structural reliability, and clean architectural detailing. High-quality wood decking boards were installed to provide durability and timeless outdoor appeal. The lower perimeter of the deck was enclosed using smart panel skirting, creating a refined and finished appearance while concealing the under-deck area. Access to the deck is provided through a single three-step staircase positioned at one entry point, maintaining a simple and functional layout. The railing system combines traditional wood top and bottom rails with aluminum pickets, offering the visual warmth of natural wood with the strength and low-maintenance performance of aluminum balusters. The result is a balanced and well-crafted wood deck that blends structural integrity with practical finishing details.

Scope

Design and construction of a wood deck featuring smart panel skirting enclosure, single-entry three-step staircase, and wood railing with aluminum picket balusters.

Challenge

Integrating smart panel skirting required precise alignment to maintain ventilation while achieving a clean finished look. Installing aluminum pickets within a wood railing system demanded accurate spacing and secure fastening to ensure safety compliance and long-term durability.

Result

A custom wood deck with smart panel skirting and wood railing with aluminum pickets, delivering durability, simplicity, and refined outdoor design.

Composite Deck with Privacy Screens & Aluminum Railing

This project involved the construction of a premium elevated composite deck designed to extend the home's second-floor living space while maximizing privacy, functionality, and modern curb appeal. Built using high-performance composite decking, the deck features a professionally crafted picture frame border, creating a clean architectural finish that highlights the deck's shape and craftsmanship. For enhanced privacy, custom composite privacy screens were installed on both sides of the deck, creating a more comfortable outdoor environment without compromising the open feel of the space. The remaining perimeter was completed with durable black aluminum picket railing, providing safety while maintaining unobstructed views of the backyard. The deck includes a spacious landing that transitions into a custom staircase equipped with a matching aluminum gate, offering secure and convenient access to the yard below. Every detail from the precision picture frame installation to the seamless integration of the privacy screens, railing system, landing, and staircase was carefully executed to create a refined, low-maintenance outdoor living space built for years of enjoyment.

Downtown Backyard Wood Deck with Privacy Screens & Fence Upgrade

This project involved the construction of a custom wooden deck for a downtown Toronto home situated on a narrow urban lot with a compact backyard. Designed to maximize functionality within limited space, the deck provides structured outdoor living while maintaining privacy and accessibility. A side-entry staircase allows access from the front passageway, while a rear staircase with integrated gate provides direct backyard exit. To enhance privacy between closely spaced neighboring properties, privacy screens were installed along both sides of the deck. The rear boundary was enclosed with new fencing, creating a defined and secure outdoor area. Additionally, the left-side property line fence was replaced and upgraded to improve visual consistency and structural integrity alongside the new deck build. The result is a refined urban backyard solution that balances space efficiency, privacy, and durable wood craftsmanship within a tight downtown setting.
