This project was completed in full compliance with municipal bylaws and permitting requirements. Detailed technical drawings were prepared by a certified engineer, who also provided structural certifications for all installed components. EconoWise began by installing properly engineered foundations for both the deck and the carport posts, ensuring all structural elements met code requirements. A pressure-treated wood deck was then built at the main entry level, finished with a fully waterproof vinyl surface providing durability and protection.
The deck structure was paired with a carport that extends seamlessly over both the deck and the adjacent driveway. This integrated design was executed in alignment with the approved plans, creating a cohesive, weather-protected space that enhances both usability and structural performance. The roofing system utilizes insulated panels, selected not only for their durability but also to protect from heat and direct sunlight exposure. Throughout the construction process, EconoWise maintained close coordination with the client, the engineer, and municipal inspectors. Multiple site visits and inspections were conducted at key stages to verify compliance with approved drawings, structural standards, and local building regulations.
The result is a fully permitted, professionally engineered outdoor structure that maximizes space efficiency by combining outdoor living with protected parking. The covered deck functions as a natural extension of the home, while the adjoining carport ensures reliable shelter for vehicles—delivering a highly versatile outdoor environment.
Project size: Deck 24’ x10’ ; carport 42’ x 12’
Materials Used: Following the technical drawings from the Engineer, proper footings were prepared; pressure-treated wood; waterproof vinyl surface; aluminum frame and insulated panels for the carport; top-mounted, simple picket-style aluminum railings; and PVC lattice deck skirting.
