In May, the Mont-River team completed a large-scale outdoor living project in Chicago, delivering a fully customized double-level WPC deck that transformed our client’s backyard into a functional, stylish, and durable retreat. Spanning over 3,000 square feet, this project was constructed using more than 400 premium WPC (Wood-Plastic Composite) boards, reflecting the scale and craftsmanship behind the build.
Project Scope & Vision
The client envisioned a cohesive and modern outdoor space for both relaxing and entertaining. Our role was to bring that vision to life — not just with beautiful materials, but with smart planning and seamless execution.
We designed and constructed a two-tier composite deck that maximized the available space and enhanced the natural surroundings. Both the upper and lower levels were thoughtfully laid out to serve different functions while maintaining a unified aesthetic.

Features & Enhancements
- WPC Double-Level Decking: Built with our premium wood-plastic composite boards for long-lasting durability and minimal maintenance.
- Integrated Greenery: Planters and vertical green walls were installed to soften the structure and blend it with the garden surroundings.
- Outdoor Living Equipment:
- Modern outdoor furniture sets
- Wall-mounted television for open-air entertainment
- Built-in BBQ grill and prep station
- Weather-resistant storage for accessories and tools
- Modern outdoor furniture sets

- LED Strip Lighting: Soft lighting was strategically installed along staircases, railings, and under-deck trim to ensure a warm and safe night-time experience.
- Upgraded Staircase: The existing stairs were rebuilt and integrated into the design for a cleaner look and improved accessibility.
- Hidden Wiring & Drainage: All electrical systems were safely integrated into the structure, while the deck base was engineered for proper water drainage and weather resistance.

Technical Highlights
Before construction began, our team conducted a full on-site evaluation to account for slope, accessibility, and the client’s daily usage needs. The project required careful coordination to manage Chicago’s spring weather conditions and city permits.
Through smart layout planning and modular installation phases, we minimized disruption to the property and ensured quality at every step. Our process not only enhanced the visual appeal but also improved the lifespan and functionality of the entire outdoor space.
