DH and I were discussing yesterday putting on a sunroom with a hot tub and I suggested we may as well add a deck to the side. He said in that case, we may as well put the hot tub outside, just in case it would leak or something similar. So I suggested we just skip the sunroom and put on a deck only, if he wants the hot tub outside anyway, cutting our cost in half.
We currently have a patio that is never used. It came with the house and neither of us like it. We live in a subdivision with houses directly behind us and no fences, so we have very little privacy back there, which is a concern.
The hot tub is non-negotiable, as DH has a bad back. I'd also like a fireplace. Since it would be on the south side of our house, some type of shade would be necessary, too.
If you have a deck, what do you love about it? Hate? How large?
