Deck Planner: 120 Outstanding Decks You Can Build Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this book after finding out they were tied to a large company that provide detailed plans as well.
Later, I find that the plans you are sent for the ADDITIONAL $75.00 are complete junk. The company the book also refers to, is out of business, and all the out of spec/code/date plans are from another company.
The book is absolutely USELESS to anyone that wants to look and pick out building plans. It belongs in the recycle bucket.

Design Ideas for Decks Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First let me make it clear that this is not a book about building decks. "Design Ideas for Decks" is a sourcebook for exactly what it states - designs. And the design ideas are plentiful and beautiful. Unique layouts, multi-level decks, accents to give aesthetic beauty, everything about design is covered in the book. Just looking through it once gave me several ideas for my backyard deck that I would not have thought of but will add a lot of character to the deck and make it the functional deck that I want. "Design Ideas for Decks" is a highly recommended resource for ideas for your new deck or to remodel your current one to make it more functional or aesthetically pleasing.
