✨ Custom Floating Composite Deck | Colorado Springs, CO

✨ CUSTOM FLOATING COMPOSITE DECK INSTALLATION | COLORADO SPRINGS, CO

Not every outdoor project requires a large backyard or an elevated deck. Sometimes, the biggest transformation comes from making an overlooked space more functional.

For this custom floating deck project in Colorado Springs, I'm The Man Services transformed a narrow, sloped side yard into a clean, attractive, and practical walkway using durable composite decking and custom framing.

The original area presented several challenges, including uneven terrain, snow accumulation, limited walking space, and two basement egress window wells.

Our solution was a low-profile floating deck designed to improve access along the side of the home while maintaining necessary clearance around the existing windows and utilities.

✨ CUSTOM FLOATING DECK DESIGN

This project required a practical solution for a narrow side yard where traditional deck construction would have been challenging.

Instead of attaching the structure directly to the home's foundation, we constructed a freestanding floating deck supported by adjustable deck blocks.

The low-profile design provides a more level walking surface while complementing the home's exterior.

Careful planning allowed us to work around the existing terrain, window wells, and surrounding structures.

✨ DURABLE COMPOSITE DECKING

For the finished surface, we installed weather-resistant composite deck boards designed for outdoor use.

Composite decking offers several advantages for Colorado homeowners, including reduced maintenance compared with traditional wood decking and resistance to common weather-related wear.

Grooved deck boards and concealed fasteners create a smooth, streamlined appearance without exposed screw heads across the walking surface.

The finished decking provides a modern look that complements the home's exterior.

✨ CUSTOM FRAMING & FINISHING DETAILS

A well-built deck starts with a properly planned support system.

For this project, pressure-treated framing was installed over adjustable supports to accommodate the uneven ground.

Custom mitered fascia boards were added around the visible edges to create a finished appearance and conceal the underlying framing.

An integrated step provides a natural transition between the deck and surrounding grade.

✨ WORKING AROUND BASEMENT WINDOW WELLS

One of the most important challenges was incorporating the existing basement egress window wells into the design.

The deck layout included access provisions and clearance around the window well areas while improving the overall usability of the side yard.

This required careful measurements, custom cuts, and thoughtful placement of the framing and deck boards.

✨ BUILT FOR COLORADO CONDITIONS

Colorado's changing weather can make outdoor construction challenging, especially during winter.

This deck was installed during cold-weather conditions with snow present around the work area.

The project was designed with attention to drainage, ventilation, and access to existing utilities.

The result is an attractive outdoor surface that makes the narrow side yard more useful throughout the seasons.

✨ THE FINISHED RESULT

What was once an uneven, difficult-to-navigate side yard is now a clean, modern composite deck walkway.

The finished installation creates a more practical connection along the side of the home while improving the appearance of an otherwise underused outdoor area.

This project demonstrates how custom carpentry and thoughtful deck design can transform even the most challenging spaces.
