Screened Porch with Wood Burning Fireplace and Paver Patio

This a beautiful screened porch that we built in Fort Mill, SC in the Springfield neighborhood.  We started by extending the concrete floor out and pouring a large footing for the large wood burning fireplace.  From there we built the screened porch and then the fireplace followed.  The porch uses an aluminum screen track system with a darker screen for added privacy.  To finish off the ceiling we used a beaded pine board with a matching pine trim and sealed it with a Sherwin Williams semi transparent wood stain.  The fireplace was veneered with natural stone, hearth and mantle along with a large wood storage outside of the fireplace.  Afterwards we built large paver patio with rounded edges and a step off into the yard.  This project turned out to be very fun to build and very functional for the entire family.  We always want you to Enjoy Being Outside.

Open Porch with Trex Decking and Paver patio in Waxhaw, NC

Deckscapes designed and built this beautiful open porch with Trex decking and a Belgard paver patio in Waxhaw, NC.  The open porch has a hip roof with a finished vaulted ceiling on the inside.  The ceiling is beaded tongue and groove pine board with a Sherwin Williams I transparent stain.  We installed two ceiling fans and 6 recessed can lights with dimmer switches.  The  flooring on the porch and adjacent deck is Trex Transcends in the Spiced Rum color with a border of Vintage Lantern Trex.  The decking is installed using Trex Hidden Fasteners and color matched screws where needed.   The railing is Trex Transcends with white horizontal rails, white posts, black aluminum ballusters, and matching Trex Spiced Rum top cap.  The deck was finished off with a 1x4 English lattice that Deckscapes builds and then stains to match the Trex Vintage Lantern.  The roofing shingles and gutters are then installed to match the exterior of the house.   The homeowners really wanted some lower living space to make a fire and enjoy some great family bonding time.  We installed a 2 piece Tumbled Belgard paver patio with a border, a large sitting wall and matching fire pit.  This area really extends their backyard living space and gives them a very resort-like feel to their backyard.  We really enjoyed building this project for our clients and I am sure they will really Enjoy Being Outside.
