Re: wood deck advice? - Stavs - 08-14-2006 I had my deck done in the spring. I went with Trex and the trex artisan railing. I am real happy with the Trex...everyone loves it that has seen it.

If I ever win the lottery (which will be hard since I don't buy tickets), all 1,000 square feet of wood decking on my place would be the first thing to go. Re: wood deck advice? - will2000 - 08-14-2006 If the deck is near ground level, go with concrete. There are many ways to create a beautiful look.

Hmmmm... even above ground level, why not consider tile of some kind? Think outside the box? Some other non-wood approach? Re: wood deck advice? - Racer X - 08-14-2006 I'm with Mike J. And contact the lumber yards who sell the lumber and man-made decking for their take on it. Lots of trex here in Puget Sound. Re: wood deck advice? - ajakeski - 08-14-2006 Cedar. MAke sure you use a good finish on it and it will last for years. Re: wood deck advice? - ztirffritz - 08-15-2006 Trex. That stuff will last forever, plus it is a good use for recycled PolyEthylene (milk bottles primarily). |
