A wonderful feature in our house is the back deck. It is large enough to have our grill, a couple of chairs, and a few more things if need be. It was in fairly rough shape though. The paint was peeling in several places and needed to be redone. We got help from both of our families at different points in this project. That is another reason why it is nice to live close enough to family to have that network of support. We are also a stone throw away from our neighbor's house. One thing that my wife wanted to put in was a privacy fence on the deck to give us just a little separation from them. As fun as it is to look right into their house, the fence just adds a little bit more to it.
This is a picture of the deck after we got everything was stripped and the privacy fence was added.
The color for the deck turned out great. We used this product called Deck Over which is suppose to fill in cracks and screw holes. It is extremely thick and is the same consistency of pudding. We joked that it looked like chocolate pudding and made us both hungry as we were painting over the course of a few days.
