Janelle’s family-friendly space

Janelle and her family needed a safe, comfortable place for outdoor activities, but their sloped, wooded backyard was not the answer. A TimberTech deck provided the extra space the four of them needed with the style their forever home deserved.

More space becomes a family favorite

Janelle’s kids needed a safe, splinter-free place to paint, bounce balls, and do the things that kids do in a backyard. But without a traditional yard, she had to get creative and extend their home’s living area to create a flexible, multi-purpose space. Her TimberTech deck did just that, bringing their home’s style to a new outdoor room where kids can be kids.

Janelle appreciated the broad selection of TimberTech colors that complemented their home. She chose a two-toned, bordered design. Besides looking great, the ultra-low maintenance and easy cleanup were important features too. A Lifetime Limited Warranty also factored into her decision, wanting a deck that would grow up and grow old with her family and keep its good looks.

We have a new place to make memories with our family—plus, the kids and pups love it!

The Decking: Autumn Chestnut (discontinued) and Harvest Collection in Slate Gray

Janelle chose two colors for her deck, Autumn Chestnut for the main surface and Slate Gray for the edges. (For a similar look to Autumn Chestnut, see Harvest Collection in Brownstone.) The decision was not easy, as she said there were many colors, any of which could work with her home. She appreciated the decking’s long expected life, backed by Product and Fade & Stain Limited Warranties.

It’s hard to say what Janelle loves more: the Fade & Stain warranty, or the real wood look.

Barefoot living is the norm on Janelle’s deck and she doesn’t worry about splinters or hot surfaces on delicate skin.

Playing, cooking, al fresco dining or just lazing about, Janelle’s family does it all on their TimberTech deck.
