My house is about 23 feet from the edge my yard on one side, and over thirty feet from the other side. I see a couple of homes with decks composed of wood down the street, but I don't know how big their yards are. I'll check out the alternative materials. I have a wood fence on the side of my house that was already here when I moved in...<br /><br />AndyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30297179.post-70970460851056169992011-06-05T19:02:02.223-07:002011-06-05T19:02:02.223-07:00Wooden decks aren't the best idea as they can ...Wooden decks aren't the best idea as they can be fuel for a fire. You can check out fire-resistant materials to build a deck, although I've heard they're more expensive. <br /><br />The general rule is to keep fire-prone materials 30 feet from the house.<br /><br />Hope that helps,<br />Greg StantonWelcome to The Meadowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02815980178309827721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30297179.post-34518294835637728402011-06-05T16:36:56.358-07:002011-06-05T16:36:56.358-07:00Does anyone know if the chain–link fence(s) in our...Does anyone know if the chain–link fence(s) in our backyards can replaced with a deck? It's not a drought–tolerant idea, but it's much nicer...<br /><br />Thanks,<br />AndyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
