Outdoor renovations are a big investment, and when it\u2019s time to finally consider a deck makeover, homeowners want to get the best bang for their buck. Luckily, there are several design choices and accessories to incorporate into your deck makeover that fit with your family&#8217;s budget\u00a0and lifestyle\u00a0in mind.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/20200526_134614-1-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2714\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/20200526_134614-1-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/20200526_134614-1-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/20200526_134614-1-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/20200526_134614-1-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/20200526_134614-1.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ACCENTS &amp; COMPLEMENTARY COLORS\u00a0<\/strong><br><br>A popular decking trend in recent years is incorporating different colors or shades in your deck boards. With so many hues to choose from with composite decking, homeowners can create one-of-a-kind, stylish outdoor spaces with the two-toned look. Opt for a lighter or darker shade of your main decking for a mid-deck seam board, or feature board around the deck\u2019s perimeter. You can also design your deck railing with a drink rail in an accenting color. A drink rail utilizes decking boards to create a perfectly flat space on top of your railing. It\u2019s a great additional space for drinks, planters, or your hands and elbows to rest as you admire the landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"2686\" src=\"https:\/\/fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_7626-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2686\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_7626-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_7626-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_7626-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_7626-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_7626-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_7626-1600x1200.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"1852\" src=\"https:\/\/fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/PXL_20220627_153551734-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1852\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/PXL_20220627_153551734-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/PXL_20220627_153551734-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/PXL_20220627_153551734-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/PXL_20220627_153551734-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/PXL_20220627_153551734-1600x1200.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/PXL_20220627_153551734.jpg 1872w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SCREENED\u00a0PORCHES\u00a0&amp; PERGOLAS\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A&nbsp;screened&nbsp;porch&nbsp;offers numerous benefits depending on how your family plans to enjoy the addition. As a bonus room and extension of your home,&nbsp;screened&nbsp;porches&nbsp;provide a comfortable place to enjoy the outdoors, protected from the elements. There&#8217;s nothing worse than a BBQ ruined by passing showers or thunderstorms. With a&nbsp;screened&nbsp;porch, you can keep the party going outdoors, sheltered from rain and debris. For the summertime in particular,&nbsp;screened&nbsp;porches&nbsp;provide additional shade and can limit exposure to pesky bugs and insects. And when the crisp autumn air arrives, your family and guests can stay warm and cozy semi-protected from the chill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pergolas, on the other hand, do not provide as much shelter, but they do provide valuable shade with tighter budgets in mind. Designed and oriented correctly on your deck, a pergola can provide plenty of shade and a designated area for dinner parties, book reading, or a \u201cwork from home\u201d office location. You may also install additional covers, for even more sun protection or in preparation for unpredictable summer storms, such as fabric or a retractable cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"732\" data-id=\"2715\" src=\"https:\/\/fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/unnamed-1024x732.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2715\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/unnamed-1024x732.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/unnamed-300x214.png 300w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/unnamed-768x549.png 768w, https:\/\/www.fenceanddeckconnection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/unnamed.png 1369w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>LIGHTING\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Outdoor lighting is an essential accessory if you plan on using your deck at night. Once the weather warms up, afternoon gatherings can easily transition to an enjoyable evening retreat with the installation of\u00a0deck lighting\u00a0onto the railing posts or deck steps. These LED or solar powered lights are functional, affordable, and also a great safety feature! If you want to really spruce up your space, globe string lights hung from the deck\u2019s railing or a pergola will add an after-dark ambiance that will make any neighbor jealous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>*A version of this blog was posted in the Spring &#8220;Home &amp;
