Local conditions
Views, wind and salt air
Exposed decks facing Semiahmoo Bay take wind-driven rain and salt air, which is hard on fasteners, hardware and finishes. Stainless or coated fasteners and powder-coated aluminum hold up better.
On steep lots, getting materials to the deck can take as much planning as the build itself. Ask each builder how they'll stage and carry materials.
