The owners of this featured house in Gates Mills, Ohio were sick and tired of having a deck that didn’t match their beautiful home. The wood planks that made up the deck were cracked and warped from years of rain, snow, and heat. Not only was this area an eyesore for the owners, but it was unsafe as well! Unstable boards, rusty nails, and missing pieces of material made this outdoor area a dangerous place rather than a relaxing one. The homeowners finally had enough and decided to dive into a serious deck remodeling project. After performing research on the options they had available to them, they decided to go from a wood deck to a stone deck using Silca System’s patented Silca Grate™.
While this set of Ohio deck stairs looks professionally done, it is actually very easy to do yourself. After the old wooden boards had been pried off and put to the side, the homeowners were able to see the deck frame and deem it usable. They could then trim and attach the square, honeycombed grates from Silca System. Screwing easily into the floor joists of the frame, the Silca System subfloor created a flat, even surface on which the owners could put the pavers of their choice to create their new elevated deck and matching deck stairs. All they needed was a drill, a saw, goggles, measuring tape, and a hammer. Doesn’t sound too difficult!
Perhaps the greatest reason for choosing Silca System for your deck remodeling project is that it gives you the opportunity to have the deck of your dreams. With the level surface it creates, you can lay down pavers made of brick, natural stone, or even recycled rubber! Smooth or rough, light or dark, even or uneven—the choice of pavers is up to you. There is no shortage of possibilities when it comes to Silca System.
Just as Silca System provided the means to transform this outdoor area in Gates Mills, their unique subflooring can help turn your own deck into a work of art.
