Take down some notes on how you plan on using the deck. Examples: I would like to have an area for a large table, I like to grille and would like a dedicated grilling area, I would like to have a hot tub area, I would like some seating or benches, single level or multi levels, a visit to our design studio may be very helpful!  Indicate when you would like this project to commence and your flexibility in your schedule.
