This project in Vaughan involved building a second-storey PVC deck off the kitchen to create a spacious outdoor area perfect for entertaining. The client had a walkout basement and wanted to preserve functionality both above and below the deck.

Key Features & Design Elements

  • Functional Footing Placement
    Footings were strategically placed to avoid blocking basement doors and windows, maximizing the usability of the lower-level patio.
  • PVC Decking Surface
    PVC was chosen for its low-maintenance finish and durability, making it ideal for second-storey applications exposed to the elements.
  • Framing for PVC Decking
    The frame was built with 12” on-center joist spacing, and joist tape was applied to protect against moisture and extend the deck’s structural life.
  • Clean Stair & Mitered Finish
    Stairs were placed flush with the deck’s edge, creating a comfortable transition and open space below. We also mitered the corners of the deck for a polished look.
  • Matching Patio Landing & Side Staircase
    A matching landing and stairs were added at the side of the house, featuring the same decking for a cohesive look. A railing was installed at the side door due to elevation.

Materials Used

  • Decking: PVC decking

  • Framing: Pressure-treated lumber with joist tape

  • Railing: Standard aluminum (optional for code compliance)

Project Outcome

The result is a clean, elevated deck space with smart structural planning and long-lasting materials. The deck provides direct access from the kitchen, ample room for gatherings, and a tidy look with mitered detailing.
