WPF how to exempt task bar when maximize window

I've a wpf window and i applied style for window header and added some code to maximize window with out covering task bar when i click on maximize button and its working fine. But the problem is when i drag window towards top window maximizing fully by hiding task bar so any one help me to get out of this.

Thanks, @nagaraju.

code for dragmove :

void OnTitleBarLeftButtonDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
        {                          
                Window window = this.TemplatedParent as Window;
                if (window != null)
                {
                    window.DragMove();
                }            
        }

maximize code:

void MaxButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            Window window = this.TemplatedParent as Window;
            if (window != null)
            {
                if (state=="MAX")
                {
                    window.Width = 1181;
                    window.Height = 670;
                    window.WindowState = WindowState.Normal;
                    CenterWindowOnScreen();
                    state = "MIN";                    
                }
                else
                {
                    //maxButton.ImageDown = "/images/normalpress.png";
                    //maxButton.ImageNormal = "/images/normal.png";
                    //maxButton.ImageOver = "/images/normalhot.png";
                    state = "MAX";
                    window.Width = SystemParameters.WorkArea.Width;
                    window.Height = SystemParameters.WorkArea.Height;
                    window.Top = SystemParameters.WorkArea.Top;
                    window.Left = SystemParameters.WorkArea.Left;
                }
            }
        }

Avoid a lot of hassle and don't do this yourself - use the shell integration library.
