Written warranty, honest pricing, and permits handled by us on every build.
Composite decking is the fastest growing deck material in Raleigh and for good reason. It never warps, rots, splinters, or needs staining. North Carolina’s summer heat, humidity, and UV exposure that crack and fade untreated wood? Composite boards hold their color and shape year after year with almost no effort on your part. You sweep it off and wash it once in a while and it looks brand new. For homeowners who want a beautiful outdoor space without spending weekends maintaining it, composite decking is the right call. The upfront cost is higher than pressure treated wood, but when you factor in zero maintenance costs over 25 to 30 years, composite often comes out ahead.
The most recognized composite decking brand in the US. Trex is made from 95% recycled materials and comes with a 25-year fade and stain warranty. Available in a wide range of colors and finishes from natural wood tones to modern grays. The Trex Select, Enhance, and Transcend lines give you options at every price point. We are Trex-experienced installers serving the entire Triangle.
We also install TimberTech, Fiberon, and Azek composite and PVC decking for homeowners who want specific colors, textures, or warranty terms. All of these brands deliver the same core benefit: a beautiful, low-maintenance deck surface that holds up in NC heat and humidity without annual sealing or staining.
Not sure which composite brand fits your budget and style? We will walk you through every option at your free estimate and bring physical samples so you can see the colors in your yard.
The most popular composite deck build in Raleigh. A clean, single-level platform off the back door with composite boards, aluminum or composite railings, and built-in lighting if you want it. Most single-level builds are completed in three to five days.
Two or more deck levels connected by stairs for homes with a grade change in the yard or homeowners who want separate outdoor zones for dining, lounging, and grilling. Custom designed for your specific home layout and lot size.
Composite decking around an inground or above-ground pool is one of the best upgrades you can make for a Raleigh backyard. Composite boards stay cooler underfoot than wood, resist moisture, and never need sealing even around constant water exposure.
Add a roof structure over your composite deck for shade, rain protection, and an outdoor space you can actually use through Raleigh's long hot summers. We build pergolas, shade sails, and full covered porch structures as part of a complete deck build.
Custom designed for your home, your yard grade, and your backyard lifestyle. Every spec confirmed before the first post goes in.
Concrete poured footings sized to Wake County structural code. Depth confirmed to local frost requirements. Every footing is inspected before framing begins.
Pressure-treated framing, joists, beams, and posts built to span and load requirements. Joist hangers and post bases at every connection. Composite decking requires correct joist spacing, which we confirm per the manufacturer spec before we frame.
Composite boards installed with hidden fasteners for a clean, screw-free surface. Gapped per manufacturer spec for drainage and thermal expansion. Boards run in the direction you choose.
Aluminum or composite railing systems in a range of colors and styles. Code-compliant baluster spacing on every install. Cable rail, glass panel, and horizontal bar options are available at additional cost.
Low-voltage LED deck lighting built into the framing and railing posts during construction is far cleaner than adding it later. Post cap lights, riser lights, and under-rail strips are all available. Ask about lighting at your estimate.
Most composite decks in Wake County require a building permit and two inspections. We pull the permit, submit the drawings, and schedule both inspections. No extra charge on any deck build.
No hidden fees. No missing materials. Everything on your written quote shows up on your property.
We come to your home with physical composite samples so you can see real board colors in your yard. We measure your space, talk through your layout ideas, and design a deck that fits how you actually want to use your backyard.
Detailed written quote within 48 hours. Every board, every footing, every railing component, and any permit fees are listed out clearly. No surprises after you say yes.
We submit your deck drawings, pull the building permit from Wake County or your city, and schedule the footing inspection before framing begins. We attend every inspection so you do not have to.
Our crew builds your composite deck from footings to final board. Most single-level builds take four to six days. We walk every inch with you when the work is done and do not leave until you are satisfied.
Most composite deck builds in the Raleigh area fall into these installed price ranges:
Single-Level Composite Deck (Trex Select or Enhance)
$45 to $65 per sq ft
Premium Composite or Multi-Level Deck (Trex Transcend)
$60 to $90 per sq ft
Add-ons
Aluminum railings, LED lighting, cable rail, built-in seating, pergola cover, terrain grade
Final pricing depends on deck size, composite brand, railing style, lighting, and your yard grade. The number on your written quote is the number you pay. No adjustments after we start.
We have built over 100 custom decks in the Triangle. We have never sent a homeowner a surprise invoice after the build started. Not once in 20 years of work in Raleigh.
“We got three quotes. They were the only ones who brought real samples and a layout sketch on the first visit.”

Most quality composite decks last 25 to 30 years in Raleigh with almost no maintenance. Trex and TimberTech both offer 25-year fade and stain warranties on their premium lines. The pressure-treated framing underneath is built to the same standard and typically lasts just as long. Composite holds up in North Carolina’s humidity and UV exposure far better than untreated or unsealed wood.
Composite boards do absorb some heat in direct sunlight, just like any solid surface. Lighter colors absorb less heat than dark colors. Premium composite lines like Trex Transcend are specifically engineered with heat-resistant technology to reduce surface temperature. In practice, most Raleigh homeowners find composite comfortable to walk on in bare feet even in summer as long as the deck is not in full direct sun all day.
Yes. Most composite decks in Wake County require a building permit and two inspections, one for the footings and one after completion. Any deck over 200 square feet or more than 30 inches above grade needs a permit. We pull the permit, submit the drawings, and attend both inspections on every deck build we do. No extra charge for any of this.
Trex Select is the entry-level line: good quality composite decking at the lowest Trex price point. Trex Enhance adds more colors and a more realistic wood grain texture at a modest price increase. Trex Transcend is the premium line with the widest color selection, the most realistic wood appearance, and the highest heat resistance. We bring physical samples of all three lines to your free estimate so you can compare them in person.
Composite decking is designed to be easy to maintain. Sweep off leaves and debris regularly and wash the surface a couple times per year with soap and water or a composite deck cleaner. No sealing, no staining, no sanding. For stubborn stains like grease or mold, a soft brush and a composite-approved cleaner will take care of it. That is genuinely all the maintenance most Raleigh homeowners ever need to do.
In some cases, yes. If the existing wood framing is structurally sound and meets current code requirements, we can remove the old decking boards and install composite boards on the existing frame. If the joists are spaced too wide or the framing is in poor condition, we recommend a full rebuild for the composite to perform the way it should. We assess the existing structure at your free estimate before quoting either option.
Composite costs more upfront, typically 40 to 60 percent more per square foot installed than pressure-treated wood. But composite requires almost zero maintenance over its life while pressure-treated wood needs sealing every two to three years plus occasional board replacement. For homeowners who want the lowest upfront cost, pressure treated is the right call. For homeowners who want the lowest total cost over 25 years and zero maintenance weekends, composite usually wins. We build both and will give you a side-by-side comparison at your estimate.
