"Small budget: $40/sq. ft.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nKey features: Slate tile surface, wood steps, and privacy panels\r\n\r\nWhen Pamela and Gary Marsh need some peace and quiet, they relax on a 9- by 25-foot deck covered with multicolored slate tiles. Handsome stone pavers \u2015 a product called Stone Deck \u2015 make it feel like a terrace on the ground.\r\n\r\nThese tiles rest on the same kind of framework a wooden deck does. A fiberglass backing underneath the 16-inch-square slate tiles strengthens the stone. (Stone Deck West\u2019s tiles are also available in quartzite and granite at 877/686-4759.)&nbsp;The broad wooden steps are made of ipe, a rich, red-colored Brazilian hardwood.\r\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
