have any of y'all done composite decking?
we have two large decks on our house and I have to replace planks yearly because it's weather facing and just gets hammered. I'm thinking of moving to a composite such as Trex, but I'm also price sensitive because the decks are so big. One of them is 22 planks wide by 36ft long. so 792 linear/board feet and I see composite decking run $2.50 to $13/ft. Huge variance!!
I'd love to just get the cheap stuff and be done with it but want to do my research to make sure that doesn't cause further issues down the line.... the nice part is I'll do the install myself and use existing joists so I'll save a chunk of cash with that aspect....
