  • Publisher Letter | April 2025

    By Rick Schumacher| LBM Journal Verified When we built our home in 2016, I had one item on my wish list: a big, beautiful deck facing the lake that we were fortunate to build on. The initial deck design was an 8’x12′ rectangle. We explained to the builder that we planned to spend a lot of time outside, and we wanted a large deck that would give us plenty of space with friends, family, and dogs. He responded with a slightly larger rectangle, measuring 12’x16′.
