We recruited good friend and fellow Spokester Robert Sharp to build us a deck for the back. We designed it and he did the final touches. We originally wanted to go with a composite deck material, Trex, but learned some not-so-good info about it, so for the same price we found a hardwood called Tiger. It is an incredible wood that is beautiful and strong. No staining necessary, just sealing it and treating it every 3 years or so. Couldn't be happier!
