Summary of the job
Dependable drainage with a carefully controlled sightline.
The Under Deck Oasis drainage system gave the space beneath the deck reliable protection from the elements while maintaining the refined appearance the homeowner wanted.
The Rustic Dark Mahogany finish adds richness and character to the ceiling, creating a polished look that blends naturally with the home and its surroundings.
Installation challenge
Balancing slope with a seamless appearance.
A watertight under-deck space requires carefully directing water toward the drainage system. Beneath this deck’s cantilever, the homeowner wanted that necessary slope to remain as visually subtle as possible.
Another system under consideration would have required removing the deck boards above. Instead, the Under Deck Oasis team planned the installation around the existing cantilever, paying close attention to pitch and overall sightlines.
The result manages water effectively without allowing the slope to distract from the room, creating a polished extension of the home with the clean finish the homeowner envisioned.
