The original structure consisted of an aging, two-level wood deck with traditional picket railings and a lower enclosed storage area.  It offered limited functionality and lacked the structural integrity needed for modern use. Its segmented layout disrupted flow, while the absence of proper weather protection restricted how often the space could be enjoyed. The partially enclosed under-deck area remained underutilized, contributing little to the overall usability or visual appeal of the backyard.

Econowise transformed the space into a modern, single-level sunroom complemented by a covered barbecue area. A waterproof vinyl surface was installed throughout, providing a long-lasting, low-maintenance flooring solution for both indoor and outdoor use. The structural upgrades ensure enhanced strength and stability, supporting the demands of year-round living.

The sunroom features double-glazed glass walls with a tempered, double-glazed roof. This design allows natural light to pour into both the sunroom and the adjacent indoor dining area, creating a bright, open atmosphere, while the covered outdoor section remains dry and comfortable for barbecuing in all seasons.

Sleek aluminum railings with clear glass panels replace the original wood, opening a view of the yard and elevating the overall aesthetic. The staircase has been rebuilt to improve access and flow, and the under-deck area is now open, cleanly finished, and accessible through a gate.
