How can I make economical skirting around the bottom of our deck?

Any Ideas of putting a rock look or wood plank look around the bottom of our deck? The deck has cement board already in place. The home is set on cynder blocks. We priced the stacked real look rock and the price is way out of our range! Thank you ,😊

    Have you considered using free pallets and use them for skirting? You could even use the runner to set them in that comes with the old cement board already there. They have pine or hard wood boards available and are easy to cut to size etc. We did this to one home and it looked great!

    You can purchase plastic panels that look like rock. If you do go this route, make sure you trim the edges so they overlap. That's the biggest mistake I've seen people make when they install them. I think they were designed for mobile home skirting but I've seen many home use it.

    Have you thought about using pallets? They’re free and you can paint them.

    Big box stores have siding boards that look like they are sand or rock covered that would make a nice look for a skirting. Good luck on what you do.
