Materials

Composite Decking, Aluminum Railing & Premium Framing

An overview of the decking, railing, framing, and add-ons we install.

Decking

Composite and PVC Decking

We build with composite decking, a capped polymer/wood-fiber blend that resists fading, staining, rot, and mold, and delivers the lowest 20-year cost of any decking material we offer. For homeowners who want maximum durability, we also install PVC decking with a lifetime warranty.

What that means for you:

  • 25-year warranty, product and fade/stain coverage included.
  • Cheaper than wood over 20 years, no stain expense every couple years.
  • Zero staining or sealing, wash occasionally and that's it.
  • Fade and stain resistant, the polymer cap protects the core.
  • Hidden fasteners + joist tape, included on every composite build.

PVC vs. Composite vs. Pressure-Treated

A quick comparison of the three decking materials we install. Prices reference a large deck project build.

FeaturePVC (PREMIUM)Composite★ RECOMMENDEDPressure-Treated

MaintenanceNoneNoneStain every 2 yrs (~$2K)
20-yr total cost$36,035$25,769$32,711

Composite offers the best balance, the lowest 20-year cost, a strong warranty, and minimal upkeep. PVC is the premium upgrade; pressure-treated remains the budget option.

Railing

Aluminum Railing, The Last Railing You'll Ever Need

Wood railing rots. Vinyl railing yellows. Aluminum railing does neither.

Powder-coated for a finish that resists fading, chipping, and corrosion, year after year. Sleek profiles that complement composite and PVC decking without competing with it.

  • Lifetime durability, won't rot, rust, warp, or splinter.
  • Clean, modern look, thinner rails mean less obstruction.
  • Multiple finishes, from classic black to custom colors.
  • Code compliant, meets all local requirements.
Foundation

Framing & Foundation

The framing underneath is what keeps your deck level, solid, and safe for decades.

  • Concrete footings, poured to proper depth for your soil.
  • Pressure-treated lumber, treated to resist rot, insects, ground contact.
  • Proper joist sizing, engineered for your specific design.
  • Drainage planning, prevents water pooling beneath.
  • Flashing and ledger details, the most failure-prone point, done right.
