Outdoor Living Spaces Bothell WA
Decks, covered areas, built-in seating, and lighting that extend Seattle's short summer into a full season. North King County's fastest-growing deck market. Tech and healthcare professionals. Sammamish River corridor builds. We know Canyon Park, North Creek, and the Wayne Golf Course neighborhoods.
Why Bothell Homeowners Choose Outdoor Living Spaces
Outdoor living design combines a deck structure with shade elements, built-in features, and lighting to create a usable outdoor room. Covered pergolas extend the season from May to October. Built-in bench seating eliminates furniture clutter. String lights and hardwired deck lighting enable evening use. We design and build the full system.
Seattle's dry season runs June through September — 4 months. A covered deck with a louvered pergola roof extends that to 6–7 months. An outdoor heater and lighting setup extends it year-round for dry, temperate evenings. Pacific Northwest outdoor living is about designing around the rain, not waiting for clear skies.
