        I like the bottom flooring, is that a trex or similar style material? I like the fireplace too. Does the above deck have a gutter/drain under its own floor I presume?

          Thanks guys.

          The deck is technically a flat roof with drainage on all 3 sides. And you're right - it's composite.

          Here's a pic underneath the deck:

              I was wondering where you've been. Both areas look like nice places to hang out in.

              Does that fire pit ever smell too "gasy"? I'm planning on getting a pit and can't decide on wood burning or gas.

                        Thanks all! Turned out great - had to share.

                        @Friday - I haven't hooked up the fireplace yet, but it is gas. I'll test it this weekend and let you know.

                                Excellent! I'm looking now at reworking our deck for a covered dining/ grilling area, with a drop down screen for movies. Polycarbonate sheets for the skylight.
                                The big impetus is to make a louvered wall that blocks views from the neighbor and the parking area, to focus on the distant wooded vistas.
                                Also, upgrading the white vinyl balusters to black metal, to open the view and for easier cleaning (too much mold from adjacent tree pollen).
