Often, a limited property size determines where a deck will be built. If you have a larger yard, you may have a few choices on where to build your deck.
Deciding where to build your deck should be influenced by a variety of factors including:
the desire for sun and/or shade,
examine the view from the deck and inside the house,
privacy considerations including neighbours, roads, or commercial businesses, and
proximity to the house.
