Now that the weather is warm, it's the perfect time for homeowners to start thinking about sprucing up their outdoor living space. The addition of a deck is often a popular choice because it's a great way to increase outdoor living space and add value to your home, however the process can be overwhelming.
In an effort to simplify the experience for customers, Fiberon, one of the leading manufacturers of composite decking, railing and fencing and PVC outdoor flooring, is offering a Deck Design Tool on its website as a resource to homeowners.
The Fiberon Deck Design allows customers to select the shape and size of their deck, including the number of levels, stairs, railings -- even board widths and footings -- in addition to choosing from various colors and styles. With a couple of clicks, visitors can create a deck plan that perfectly complements their space -- and a materials list to match. Once the design is complete, deck plans can be printed out in full color, including a 3-D rendering, and customers have everything they need to hand over to a contractor.
"The online Fiberon Deck Design tool is an ideal way to experiment, explore and watch ideas come to life," said Chris Beyer, vice president of marketing for Fiberon. "We have seen a tremendous response to the tool thus far, and encourage homeowners who are thinking about adding a new deck, or even replacing or resurfacing an old deck, to visit the site before beginning the process."
Additionally, customers can visit the Inspiration Gallery on the Fiberon website to help generate ideas before they begin the design process.
