All Decked Out NYC - Urban Rooftop Design and Construction, Build the Deck of Your Dreams!

All Decked Out NYC are Urban Deck Design Specialists!
When you want to spend some time outdoors after a cold winter, you need a private deck. With the warm weather, the fresh smell of flowers and other plants and beauty of green trees of your own rooftop deck can be enjoyed even by those who live in cities such as New York. Of course not many apartments have terraces but most of them have balconies. If you’re living in an apartment with an access to the rooftop or you live in a Brownstone townhouse you’re a lucky person. Here are some ideas how you can hire All Decked Out NYC to design and install your outdoor space to be perfect for your lifestyle.

Having a rooftop terrace or deck is your expression of an ultimate outdoor space, providing beautiful views that also also serve as an urban garden. A rooftop deck is quite a luxury in NYC, but if you have your own rooftop garden in an urban setting, it can become a great addition to the value of your home and serve as an ultimate entertainment and lounge area with greenery to create the added privacy that comes with building your own urban garden oasis.

Solid wood is the best option for any deck. Why? It’s natural, sturdy and with some appropriate maintenance will last for years. Choose between ipe, teak, cedar, mahogany TREX or other composite deck materials. Wooden finish also brings warmth to the look and it is simply aesthetically pleasing.


Build and Design Comfortable Seating Areas
Decorating your rooftop deck is easy. Potted plants and trees and flower beds are ultimate accessories. But you can also go for creative furniture, decorations like floor vases and hanging lanterns and other designer accents.
Bringing a water feature to your rooftop deck can also act as an ultimate decoration and even a focal point. Think vertical green wall or a small fountain. Also make sure to invest in good outdoor lighting as it can bring a lot of character to the deck/terrace but it should also withstand the environment. Low-Voltage lanterns and floor lamps add a lot of charm and style to the outdoor spaces like decks and terraces. Also a rug can bring the indoors’ warmth to the area, just be sure to remove it when the weather is wet and cold or too hot (as the rug color can fade).
Beyond your deck's design, you can incorporate unique elements that make your deck stand out. For example, line the exterior rail of a deck with built-in benches or planters. Or create a centerpiece with a gazebo, arbor, a colonnade or a large sitting area with custom built-in furniture. Incorporate natural features such as a trellis covered in vines, walkways or stepping stones that transition from the deck to garden pathways, or living walls grown from wall pockets. For artistic flair, add a wall mosaic, a bouquet of bright paper lanterns, or a line of low voltage lights.
Removable Ipe Tiles Set on Pedestal System

If "green" and sustainable deck materials are important to you, check for Forest Stewardship Council certification on your building materials. Eco-design wood alternatives that blend plastic and wood fiber include Trex, ChoiceDek and TimberTech. For wood decks, we primarily use Ipe and Teak, as well as cedar and mahogany.

We also do great masonry and stonework, like our bluestone projects which are low-maintenance, stay clean all year, and look great. To see more before and after pictures, go to www.alldeckedoutnyc.com to look at our whole portfolio.

A Tree Grows in Brooklyn

Although most of our jobs are on the great island of Manhattan, we do sometimes get the pleasure of crossing the river to work in the ever green and always lovely Brooklyn.

This past week, the entire team (about 10 workers in total) transformed a rooftop in DUMBO from a simple place to get a good view of downtown Manhattan, to a menagerie to be viewed FROM downtown Manhattan!

Above: The rooftop prior to it's All Decked Out makeover
We started the day at 5am with a trip out to our nursery to get shrubs, grasses, pansies, and planters. Then, once the goods were delivered, the team set to work to bring our designer's plans to life.

After a long hard day and a successfully completed installation, we of course all had to stop for pizza and a beer at the famous Grimaldi's before making our way back to across the bridge. Until next time...!
