The Story

Decks of Distinction was commissioned for a substantial project in Edmonton, with a budget ranging from $25,000 to $30,000. The task was to create a functional and stylish outdoor area for a local business establishment where patrons could enjoy dining and drinking. The project had a completion window of two weeks and required a design that would accommodate built-in seating and provide ample shade, all while incorporating the business’s branding.

Challenge

The challenge was multifaceted: to construct a deck that could withstand heavy usage by patrons, integrate built-in seating for comfort, offer shade for outdoor enjoyment, and feature a branding inset to enhance corporate identity. The project also needed to fit within the rectangular layout of the designated area, harmonizing with the business’s existing structure.

Solution

Decks of Distinction devised a plan for a rectangle-shaped deck made from treated wood, topped with a cedar pergola to offer shade. The cedar theme continued with the railing style, providing a cohesive and elegant design. Built-in seating was strategically placed to optimize space and encourage patron interaction, while the branding inset was designed to be a subtle yet impactful visual element within the deck.

Execution

The execution of the deck was meticulously organized into stages to meet the two-week deadline. The construction began with the treated wood foundation, ensuring durability and longevity. The built-in seating and pergola were crafted simultaneously, with precision engineering to ensure each element met both functional and aesthetic standards. The branding inset was the final touch, created with careful attention to represent the business's identity.

Outcome

The completion of the deck marked a significant enhancement for the business, offering patrons an inviting outdoor space that not only catered to their comfort but also extended the establishment's brand experience. The combined use of treated wood and cedar delivered both the required durability and visual appeal. Decks of Distinction delivered the project on time and within the specified budget, further solidifying their reputation for excellence in custom deck construction.
