Date: September 29th, 2025 2:08 PM Author: Wes Scantlin Gorgeous and stately. Did you build it yourself? I’m trying to build a tiny pink 200 square foot deck and the contractor wants 20k. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5781076&forum_id=2most#49311753) |
 |
Date: September 29th, 2025 2:17 PM Author: dirte I wanted it done right and a contractor was looking for winter work. I paid 60K for the composite deck and concrete footers. The pilings were helical pilings that were drilled in. That was a huge expense, but it won't buckle or heave with the permafrost.
It completely changes the house and it's awesome. The pic was from once the snow melted and I hadn't cleaned up the yard or put the jetski docks in the water yet. |

Date: September 29th, 2025 2:33 PM Author: dirte The back yard is completely sloped. It's composite decking, so maintenance should be minimal. It would make more sense if you were at the house.
