What is the value of good deck plans? Well, all I can say is "It's probably your cheapest insurance for building something you're happy with in the end."

It always surprises me how some people with million dollar homes will put almost no thought into planning a deck so that it looks like it actually belongs and fits well with the home.

Well, that's why I decided to build this site, so that people can get planning and design ideas to draft their own plans. Or if required, find some nicely designed building plans and start off on the right foot.

One of the most useful planning and design tools I have found is from Plan3D below. Worth checking out to see if it will suit your needs.

What Kind of Deck Plans Are Available?

I have looked at a number of plans for decks on the Internet and it's been few and far between. But I have seen some particularly well done building plans from ePlans.com.

I find them to be very inexpensive and useful especially for home owners who are building their first deck and want to do it right. And I am always looking for more.

If I find any others that I think are worthy, I'll mention them. But they seem to have all the detail and design elements that you can ask for.

What Level of Builder Are You? Be Honest With Yourself

If you are planning on building yourself, using good plans is an inexpensive way to ensure success.

On the other hand, I have been building since I was eighteen years old so I can build most decks in my head. But even I like to draft the details up before I jump into a project.

But be honest with yourself. Don't try to do it on the cheap if you are not yet at that level.

You'll spend a ton of money on lumber and materials and end up with something you are not happy with. A good set of deck building plans will eliminate your worries.
