Composite Deck Installation
Enjoy a beautiful, low-maintenance deck that looks great year after year with composite decking materials.
Composite decking has changed how people think about outdoor spaces. You get the look of natural wood without the constant maintenance. No more staining every year. No more splinters or warping boards. Just a deck that stays beautiful with minimal effort on your part.
At Oakstead Hemet Decks, we specialize in installing composite decks that stand up to Hemet's climate. Our experience with these materials means your deck will look great and perform well for decades.
Why Homeowners Choose Composite Decking
Composite decking costs more upfront than traditional wood. But when you add up the time and money you save on maintenance, composite often comes out ahead. Here is why so many of our clients in Hemet choose composite materials.
Low Maintenance Means More Free Time
- •No staining or sealing required: You clean composite decks with soap and water. That is it. No annual refinishing projects.
- •Resists fading and staining: Composite materials hold their color even under direct sun. Spills wipe away easily.
- •Won't splinter, crack, or rot: Safe for bare feet and perfect for families with kids who play outside.
- •Lasts longer than wood: Quality composite decking can last 25 to 30 years or more with minimal care.
More Design Options Than You Might Think
Modern composite decking comes in dozens of colors and textures. You can choose materials that look like natural wood grain or go with contemporary solid colors. Some products even have variations in color from board to board, creating a more natural appearance. We help you select options that match your home's style and your personal taste.
Our Composite Deck Installation Process
Installing composite decking requires different techniques than wood. We have the experience and tools to do it right.
Proper Foundation and Framing
The substructure under your composite deck needs to be built to the manufacturer's specifications. We use treated lumber or aluminum framing systems designed specifically for composite decking. This ensures proper support and ventilation.
Hidden Fastener Systems
Most composite decks use hidden fasteners that clip onto the side of each board. This creates a clean surface with no visible screws. It also allows the boards to expand and contract with temperature changes without buckling.
Precise Cutting and Fitting
Composite materials cut differently than wood. We use specialized blades and techniques to get clean edges. We also account for the thermal expansion properties of composite decking when we plan board placement and spacing.
Finishing Touches
We install matching fascia boards to cover the edges of your deck framing. We also handle railing installation using composite or metal systems that complement your deck. Every detail is finished to look professional and polished.
