We’ve read a lot of articles and heard many stories from our customers about being “stuck” in their homes. With higher interest rates and home prices, many homeowners aren’t willing to give up their low-interest mortgages to move. Instead, they’re looking for ways to transform their current home into their dream home and increase their home’s value.
If it’s additional living space you’re looking for and you have a 2nd story deck, look no further than the unused or under used space below it. By incorporating an Underdeck Ceiling System, you can create a dry, usable space regardless of the weather. This system creates a ceiling and channels water away from the deck, keeping the area underneath dry and protected. With the right design, materials and the added benefit of an Underdeck Ceiling System, you can transform your underdeck space into a functional and beautiful extension of your home.
