Outdoor Additions in Matthews, NC

Part of owning a home is customizing it to suit your tastes. From interior design to outdoor construction and landscaping, there are many ways to set your home apart from your neighbors.

For many years, Deck Plus has provided custom outdoor additions in Matthews, NC, delighting our clients with superior quality and craftsmanship. Our experienced designers and builders will consider your preferences and help you explore the capabilities of your outdoor space.

Matthews homeowners often want outdoor spaces that feel finished and usable, not just “added on.” That means planning for shade, traffic flow, and how your family actually spends time outside, whether that is quiet mornings, hosting friends, or building a backyard layout that works for every season.

Our process is designed to keep decisions clear. We start with how you want to use the space, then we map out size, layout, materials, and any special features so your project looks intentional and functions well long-term.

Decks

Decks are wonderful places to enjoy your morning coffee, catch up with friends, or enjoy the peace of your neighborhood. Deck Plus can help you design and build a perfect deck for relaxing or entertaining. The types of decks we build include:

• Attached decks
• Detached decks
• Rooftop decks
• Multi-tier decks
• Wrap-around decks

With so many options to choose from, Deck Plus can customize your deck to your exact specifications.

When we design a deck for a Matthews home, we consider more than style. We plan for sun exposure, the best staircase placement, and how the deck connects to your yard, driveway, or patio space. We can also help you decide whether keeping what you have makes sense or whether deck replacement options will give you better durability and layout flexibility.

Material choice matters too. If you want a low-maintenance finish that holds up year after year, we can walk you through color and performance differences across lines like low maintenance Trex decking, then pair it with railings and lighting that match your home’s look.

Porches

When building an outdoor living space, a porch is an excellent option for a low-maintenance relaxation area. Deck Plus can build beautiful porches in a variety of styles, including:

• Screened porch builds
• Wrap-around porches
• Custom porch designs

Deck Plus has the skills and experience to help customize a porch that you’ll love. For exceptional deck and porch designs in Matthews, NC, contact Deck Plus for a free consultation.

A porch can be one of the easiest ways to make your home feel bigger without changing your interior footprint. Many Matthews homeowners choose screened designs to enjoy fresh air with fewer bugs, while others prefer open layouts for maximum light and visibility. If you want a stronger “indoor-outdoor” feel, we can help you plan rooflines, columns, and trim details so the porch looks like it was always part of the original home.

We also design porches with comfort in mind, including ceiling fan placement, electrical planning, and the right flooring surface for long-term wear. If you are trying to visualize options, take a look at finished porch project examples to compare layouts and styles.

Patios & Hardscapes

If you’re looking for an elegant yard design with hardscaping and a patio, Deck Plus is your go-to designer. Hardscaping, such as stone walkways, paths, fences, and more, can help separate gardens, fountains, or other yard features surrounding your custom patio.

Our patio and hardscaping designs include:

• Paver patios
• Flagstone patios
• Brick patios

Patios and hardscapes also help solve common yard challenges. If you have drainage issues, slope concerns, or muddy areas that limit use, a properly planned patio base and layout can make the space more functional while keeping everything visually clean. We can also design walkways that improve flow from the driveway to the backyard, and we often plan seating zones that work with grills, dining sets, or fire features.

For homeowners who want a cohesive outdoor layout, we can coordinate patios with other features so everything feels consistent, from the edge details to the material colors. If you are comparing surface options, our low-maintenance patio guide breaks down what to expect from different paver styles and upkeep levels.

Outdoor Living & Other Services

When you choose to upgrade your outdoor space, Deck Plus can help you every step of the way. Besides our other services, we can customize your outdoor living space to include:

• Pergolas
• Outdoor kitchens
• Three-season rooms
• Fire pits and fireplaces

Your new yard design will be the highlight of the neighborhood, providing a wonderful place to entertain and enjoy the outdoors.

Outdoor living works best when the space is designed as a whole. A pergola can define a dining zone, a kitchen can support hosting without running inside, and a fire feature can extend how long you use the backyard through cooler months. We help you think through the practical details too, like where guests will sit, where lighting is needed, and how the space will feel when you are using it day to day.

If you are unsure how to combine features without overbuilding the yard, our team can recommend a phased plan so the project still feels cohesive. For a look at how different features can work together in real homes, explore completed deck builds that include connected living zones.
