This PVC  decking project in Midlothian Va consisted of removing all existing deck boards and railings. We added extra framing for installation of the perimeter border and the angled decking. The products that we used on this project are Timbertech Evolutions PVC and composite  decking and white Radiance railings  http://www.timbertech.com/.  The decking was installed using Tigerclaw hidden fastener system http://www.deckfastener.com/.  All toe kicks, risers and band boards are covered with PVC white 1 x material.Evolutions is a new hybrid decking which incorporates composite decking as the core and a PVC coating to the exterior for a more durability decking option than traditional composite.

The top photo is the existing landing that was built when the home was constructed. Years of weather and no maintenance made this front deck landing a hazard for the home owner and guests to enter the home via this entrance.

The bottom photo is  the newly installed deck landing that replaced the original deck that was a safety hazard. The new deck landing was built with pressure treated lumber. All local and state permits were filed for and inspections passed.
