SW 216th Pl Cedar Deck Build

A big, low cedar platform deck with wide steps and a custom built-in bench.

The project

Cedar, start to finish.

This backyard got a big, low platform deck in cedar, with wide steps down to the yard and a custom bench built in along one edge.

The crew came back in May to stain it, starting with the bench and the borders before moving on to the field.
