A ground-level floating deck (or detached deck) is a great way to add entertaining space to your backyard. We'll walk you through each step, from planning & framing, to installing deck boards & decorating.

Difficulty Level: Advanced. Make sure you check local building codes. If you are not 100% confident building a deck, Lowe's recommends that you hire a professional. Call 1-877-GO-LOWES or https://low.es/2C2x6Zm to learn more about installation services through Lowe’s.
