Our commitment to your satisfaction extends beyond the completion of your project. We offer comprehensive warranties on craftsmanship, materials, and structural integrity, providing peace of mind and assurance that your investment is protected.
What Materials Do We Use for Decks?
We primarily use low-maintenance materials like TimberTech and Trex. Both options offer the aesthetic appeal of real wood with enhanced durability, resisting issues like rot, mold, and scratching. TimberTech features sustainable wood particles and high-density polyethylene, while Trex uses recycled materials for eco-friendly decking solutions.
Why Choose Composite Over Wood?
Composite decking, such as TimberTech and Trex, requires significantly less maintenance than traditional wood. Wood decks are prone to issues like rot, mold, and insect damage, necessitating regular upkeep. In contrast, composite materials are engineered to withstand these problems, offering a longer-lasting, more reliable outdoor space solution.
Ensuring Quality and Safety
Every project we undertake is built to exceed safety standards. We use 12” on-center framing construction, providing a load rating of 70 lbs per square foot. This approach not only meets but surpasses code requirements, ensuring the durability and stability of your deck.
Exploring TimberTech Decking: The Premium Choice
TimberTech is a leading name in composite decking, and it is known for its superior durability and low maintenance requirements. Made from 60% to 85% recycled materials, TimberTech offers an eco-friendly option that reduces deforestation. Its realistic wood-like appearance and various colors and textures provide unmatched aesthetic appeal. TimberTech's advanced PVC options better resist fading, staining, and moisture damage than earlier generations of PVC decking. Additionally, TimberTech decking never splinters, ensuring safety for children and pets, and comes with industry-leading warranties, including a Limited Lifetime Product Warranty and a 50-Year Limited Fade & Stain Warranty.
Delving into Trex Decking: The Sustainable Solution
Trex decking is renowned for its durability and eco-friendly composition. Made from 95% recycled materials, including reclaimed wood and plastic, Trex is an environmentally conscious choice that also offers robust resistance to fading, staining, scratching, and mold. The low-maintenance nature of Trex means no painting, staining, or sealing is required—just occasional cleaning with soap and water to maintain its beauty. Trex provides a wide variety of colors and finishes, allowing homeowners to achieve the perfect aesthetic without the hassle of traditional wood upkeep. Additionally, Trex's manufacturing process is designed to minimize environmental impact, reinforcing its commitment to sustainability.
