Larger decks, complex designs, and challenging site conditions increase the cost due to the need for more materials and labor.

Composite decking is durable, requires minimal maintenance, and is resistant to rot, mold, and insects. However, it can be more expensive than natural wood initially, but it requires less maintenance over time.

Composite decks are known for their longevity, often lasting 25-30 years or more with proper care, which is significantly longer than traditional wood decks. Premium materials have warranties up to 50 years.

We use Trex decking because of its exceptional durability, low maintenance requirements, wide range of colors and finishes, its unrivaled warranties, and how it is cost-effective over time due to fewer maintenance costs.
