Composite Decks

A large majority of our decking projects are done with composite decking materials. Composite and PVC decking has become a popular choice for an extremely low maintenance alternative to wood decking. Over the past few years composite companies have done extensive research and development to refine their products, making them look and feel more like wood. In recent years the leading manufacturers have designed products to mimic hardwoods like Ipe and Teak. Many carry warranties of 20 years or more; some of which now include scratching and fading.
At SD Independent Construction we have made it a priority to stay atop the composite decking industry with constant research and development, product seminars, and trainings related to composite decks and railings. Our owner has visited several production facilities where composites are manufactured to insure the select

ion of the best products for our installations. Some of our most popular composite deck materials are Timbertech, Trex, and Fiberon decking. With over 100 composite deck installations since 2003, we have the field experience and market history behind each product. We periodically visit past installations to study these installs after years of weathering. We examine the fastening systems, colors, and product types. We have designed composite decking and railing systems to facilitate glass railing installations, trellis, fencing, cable railings, seating, planters, poolside decks, spa surrounds and more. The following photographs are examples of composite decking installations.
