Follow along as Simpson Strong-Tie Senior Product Manager Lydia Poulsen shares her experience attending an Outdoor Accents® Sage System™ pergola build with DIY influencer Jen Woodhouse and country music artist John King. Set against the backdrop of north Georgia in the fall, the project highlights how the Sage System helps homeowners and DIYers build strong, customizable outdoor living spaces with ease.
One of the ways many homeowners increase the enjoyment (and monetary) value of their property is by adding a well-designed deck, pergola or other outdoor structure to their backyard. Whether it’s for entertaining or just chilling with a good read and a bracing beverage, a beautiful outdoor living space makes any backyard activity more desirable. Perhaps that’s why, in a 2017 survey, 25% of National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) remodelers reported adding a deck as one of their most common projects, and the figure was nearly identical for new home construction.
