Homeowner wants old metal deck removed and replaced with a larger composite deck. In phase 1 of the project, the old deck was removed......
....and a block retaining wall was built to hold back the dirt from sliding back up against the pool.
Phase 2 of the project, which will be a 20'x20' composite deck, will start in spring.
Phase 2 is a 14'x20' Trex composite deck.
The platform is Saddle and for an accent the railing is Woodland Brown.
This deck needed all new "refacing". The structure itself was solid, but the deck boards and railing were twisted, split, and rotten in spots.
BEFORE
AFTER - TREX was used to replace, with 2 different colors. Woodland Brown and Saddle.

This shows how a wood deck can be stripped and refinished. This is about 8 years of weather on this deck. The left half has been stripped and brought back to life.
After being completely stripped, the deck looks fairly new again. Its now ready to accept a new finish.
The home owner chose a semi transparent stain so that the wood grain is still prominent.
