Styles of Decks

Platform, Raised, and Freestanding Decks

Platform, raised, and freestanding decks benefit from deck lighting that defines edges and creates ambiance after dark. Skirting options including lattice skirting, vinyl skirting, and horizontal or vertical boards can be accented with low-profile fixtures.

Multi-Level Decks

Multi-level decks offer layered lighting from step lights between tiers to ambient fixtures above and below. Strategic placement creates depth and continuity across the space.

Curved Decks and Privacy Screens

Curved decks use lighting along the rail line to trace the structure's shape after dark. Privacy screens using solid wood panels, faux stone panels, or stone and brick skirting can be backlit for drama.

Cantilevered and Rooftop Decks

Cantilevered and rooftop decks use perimeter lighting to define the space and extend evening usability. Fixture placement accounts for wind exposure on elevated structures.

Screened Porch and Covered Deck

Screened porches and covered decks use overhead and wall-mounted fixtures for consistent illumination. Both styles allow creative layering of ambient and accent lighting.

Pool and Spa Decks

Pool and spa deck lighting must be rated for wet environments and positioned safely around water. Well-placed fixtures create a resort atmosphere while maintaining clear visibility.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently replaced our pressure treated wood deck and hired Top South Decks & Porches to built the frame in Feb. As we handled permit, demolish, and decking/guardrail ourselves, the review is about deck frame and customer service only. It is an overall very pleasant experience with Federico and his crew.

Pros: Federico is very knowledgeable about his work. He replied most of my email/text within 24 hours, answered all my questions, and communicated everything clearly. His quote is competitive and outlined all the works to be done. His crew is very efficient and had the work done quickly. He also stopped by multiple times to address our concerns in a timely manner. He stood behind his word and replaced a splitting post after the job is completed.

Cons: Because the crew got things done fairly quick, they did not pay much attention to material selection. We saw the scrapped cut post is of better quality than the piece used. I also found a few nails near the worksite after the crew left.

Again, Top South Decks & Porches got the job done as expected and honored the warranty. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a decent deck builder.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. INCREDIBLE experience with Federico & team over at Top South! We had an old sinking sunroom from the 80s, and they completely transformed it! Federico was a great communicator along the way and was the best problem solver when it came to our older home. They provided us with detailed renderings and provided plenty of material options/recommendations. The best part is he is a licensed and professional contractor, so you know everything is being done right with integrity. They made the permitting process so easy. When getting a job like this done, you have to trust your team and we definitely did! THANK YOU again!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an excellent experience with Top South D&P. They redid our master bathroom shower, transformed a half bath into a full bath, and painted our entire house. The quality of their work is outstanding. They are incredibly thorough, keep everything clean and well-contained, and are some of the hardest workers we’ve ever worked with. Federico and his crew are extremely responsive and truly take pride in what they do. We couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend Top South D&P to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality construction work.
