Composite decks

Composite Deck Builders in Toronto and the GTA

Low-maintenance composite decks built on framing spaced and fastened to the manufacturer's rules, so the boards stay flat and the warranty stays valid.

Why composite

Less work every summer

Composite boards are made from wood fibres and plastic with a protective outer shell on most current lines. They don't need staining, won't splinter, and hold their colour far longer than wood.

  • No sanding, staining or sealing
  • Resists rot, insects and splintering
  • Hidden fastener options for a clean surface
  • Wide range of colours and wood-grain finishes

Brands we install: Trex, Fiberon, TruNorth

Done right

What a proper composite deck needs underneath

Tighter joist spacing

Composite boards span less than wood. Joists are spaced to the board maker's rules, and closer again for diagonal or picture-frame layouts.

Frost-ready footings

Posts sit on footings set deep enough to resist frost heave, so the deck doesn't shift after the first winter.

Joist protection

Protective tape on the tops of wood joists helps keep water from sitting on the framing under the boards.

Expansion gaps

Composite grows and shrinks with temperature. End and side gaps are set to the manufacturer's chart for the day it's installed.

Composite deck questions

How long does a composite deck last?
Composite boards are built for decades of use, and major brands back them with long product warranties. The frame underneath matters just as much, which is why we build it to the board maker's spacing and fastening rules.
Does composite decking get hot?
Darker boards in full sun can get hot in summer. Lighter colours and some capped board lines stay cooler. We'll bring samples so you can compare before choosing.
Can composite go on my existing frame?
Only if the frame is in good shape and the joists are spaced closely enough for the boards you pick. Many older wood decks were framed wider than composite allows, so we check before quoting a resurface.
Is composite worth the extra cost?
If you plan to stay in the home for several years, the savings on staining, sealing and board replacement usually make up a good part of the difference, and you get the time back.
