The best looks for your Washington DC area swimming pool include more than just design basics, but also the landscape and the deck around the swimming pool. Whether you are looking at designs that offer more luxury and allow you to enjoy the outdoors to the fullest extent, or want something simple and square, choosing the right look and right deck builder are imperative to your overall satisfaction.
Wood decks were once built for cosmetic reasons only – they add a nice touch to your Vienna VA backyard and frame a swimming pool nicely. But the added safety features make the investment in a deck surround even more worthwhile. Typically a deck is built to surround the entire pool and will take the same shape as the pool you have installed. However, you also can get out of that box and design something unique to your family and your particular needs.
For example, why not make the backyard entertainment the focus of the backyard for everyone – even the non-swimmers in the group. With a deck, you can include a lounge area, a cooking area, or even a designated area for sleeping and reading (note, this is the quiet zone). The type of deck you choose to build on your Northern Virginia property is up to you and you can include whatever amenities you want with the look you desire.
Consider first the amount of width you want to be from around the pool and build out from there. The deck should provide enough space to comfortably move around without risking falling in the pool. There is a certain amount of safety involved in the deck design process, that if left unnoticed can result in serious injury.
