All of our decks are custom built with #1 Natural Select treated Yellow Pine, which is the best material for use in decks. The #1 should represent that there are fewer knots, no wane or bark and of course no rot. This is inspected by the National Lumber Industry, and carries a manufacturers lifetime warranty against rot or deterioration. As a company, we are very pleased with Yellow Pine as a deck material. It produces less sap and less twisting, as compared to Red Pine or Ponderosa Pine. The option of using composite or vinyl material is also available. All of our decks are set with concrete, and the post is brought up to create a support for the railing. All of our railing is framed on both sides to create a finished, Good Neighbor® look. Elyria Fence will only use 2"x6" boards. It is common to see 5/4"x6" boards on other decks, however, in our experience this creates a very "spongy" deck to walk on. We added stairs to this deck leading up toward the house, and built-in benches. As with everything we do, our decks are custom-built which allows the customer to be as decorative or simple as they choose. For the convenience of our customers we provide installations year around, however, be sure to plan ahead on your installation. The summer months are very busy, and this will allow us to accomodate for your holiday parties or pool installation. Contact one of our estimators for a free appointment to discuss design and pricing options. Please refer to our FAQ page for a list of our installation territory.
