Composite Deck Renovation
Before

Before
This deck previously had wooden deck boards. The deck was rotting in some places making it unsafe to use.

Before
After doing some repair work to the deck's frame and applying joist tape as a preservative measure, we installed composite decking along with a new metal rail.
Cedar Deck Renovation
This cedar deck's boards were running diagonally which the home owners did not like.
The home owners wanted to remove the existing deck boards and reorient them so they ran perpendicular to their house.
The existing joists needed to be removed because their orientation would not support the desired deck board arrangement.
The deck frame had to be mostly rebuilt so the joists would run parallel with the house.
Before the deck boards were installed, joist tape was applied to preserve the joists.
The home owners requested hidden fasteners to be installed for a clean finish.
Composite Deck and Metal Rail Install
The Plan
The customer wanted to install Trex composite decking with a TimberTech Impression rail. The customer did not want butted joints so we split a picture frame to address the long span. The customer also wanted to install a drink rail. We worked with the customer to build a plan (left) that met their needs.
Before
Previously the customer's deck was comprised of wooden deck boards and a wooden rail. The first order of business was to demolish the existing deck down to its structural members.
In Process
After demolition was complete, we began the build back which included adding additional structural support, blocking, and joist tape as a preservative measure.
After
The final product was a new Trex Island Mist Composite deck with a TimberTech Impression aluminum rail. The Trex Whiskey Barrel drink rail was visually appealing and added functionality to the customer's deck.
