Note:  All of these standard Building Plans can be modified for an additional fee:  $100 per dimension.  Example:  Suppose you wanted "The Fulgham" above to be 2' further out from the house.  That would cost $100 + $39.95 = $139.95.  Suppose you also wanted "The Fulgham" to have the large section 20' long instead of 18' as shown.  Then the cost would be $100 + $100 + $39.95 = $239.95.  This way you can pretty much custom design your deck plan while saving quite a bit from our "Design-at-a-Distance" Plan Fees.  This special offer only applies to deck plans.  It does not apply to porch, shed or gazebo plans.
