Composite Deck: Abbey Knoll Estates, Northville
This custom composite deck project in Abbey Knoll Estates, Northville was designed to seamlessly integrate with the home’s existing architecture while significantly upgrading durability, safety, and nighttime usability.
The homeowners wanted a deck that matched the original footprint but delivered modern performance, clean detailing, and enhanced lighting — all while protecting and re-supporting their existing sunroom.
Project Overview
Using the provided construction drawings, Titan Decks carefully executed a full deck replacement, maintaining the original layout while upgrading every structural and surface component.
The result is a cohesive, multi-level outdoor living space that blends naturally with the home and surrounding landscape.
Design & Construction Highlights
Complete Demolition & Rebuild
The existing deck was fully demolished and hauled away, allowing for a fresh structural start. The new deck was built to precisely match the existing configuration shown in the drawings, ensuring continuity with the home’s layout and access points.
Structural Precision
Special care was taken to re-support the existing sunroom, ensuring long-term stability and proper load transfer. This step was critical given the deck’s proximity and integration with the home’s rear structure.
Materials & Finishes
Decking & Fascia
- Trex Lineage® in Jasper was selected for its refined, natural tone and advanced heat-mitigating technology.
- Matching Trex fascia provides a clean, finished edge around the entire deck.
Picture Frame Detail
- A Deckorators® Dark Slate picture-frame border was added to define the deck perimeter and enhance visual contrast against the Jasper decking.
Railings
- Trex Signature® railings deliver a sleek, modern profile with long-term durability and minimal maintenance, while maintaining open sightlines across the yard.
Lighting & Safety Features
To improve both aesthetics and safety, integrated riser lighting was installed:
- Two lights per stair rise, providing even illumination for nighttime use
- Enhances visibility while adding a subtle architectural glow
