composite deck installer in naperville, il

why homeowners pick composite

Composite costs more upfront than pressure-treated or cedar and asks almost nothing of you afterward. No annual staining, no sanding, no splintering, and the color holds through Chicago winters.

It's the right call if you plan to stay in the house and never want to think about deck maintenance again.

• no annual staining or sealing
• won't splinter, cup or check
• long manufacturer warranties on the boards themselves
• consistent color and a wide range of finishes

installed the way the manufacturer requires

Composite is unforgiving of bad framing. Joist spacing has to be tighter than for wood, especially on diagonal layouts, and the boards need room to move with temperature.

We frame to the manufacturer's spec, use hidden fastener systems so nothing shows on the surface, and detail the edges and stairs with matching fascia and riser material.

what it costs

Composite decking typically adds 30-60% to the material cost compared to pressure-treated, and pays it back in maintenance you never do. Railing choice moves the number as much as the decking does.

Every ProDeck Works project is owner-supervised on site, permitted through your township, and backed by a 2-year workmanship warranty in writing.

questions we get

do you install Trex?

Yes — Trex, TimberTech and comparable composite systems, framed and fastened to the manufacturer's installation spec.

can I put composite decking on my existing frame?

Only if the framing is sound and the joist spacing meets the composite manufacturer's requirement. We check both before quoting a resurface.

does composite get hot?

Darker boards do run warmer in direct sun than lighter ones. If the deck is south-facing and you're barefoot on it all summer, we'll steer you toward a lighter color.

how much does a Trex deck cost in Naperville?

Composite decks in this area typically run $45 to $90 per square foot installed. Decking line, railing system and height off the ground drive most of the difference.

how long does a composite deck last?

Properly framed composite decking commonly lasts 25 to 30 years, and the boards carry long manufacturer warranties. The framing beneath it is the part that determines real lifespan.

is composite decking worth it in Illinois?

If you plan to stay in the home, usually yes. You trade a higher upfront cost for no annual staining or sealing through freeze-thaw winters.

does composite decking need to be sealed?

No. Composite is washed, not sealed or stained. Soap, water and a soft brush once or twice a season is the whole maintenance routine.
