manufacturer's warranty for residential use from Advanced Environmental
Recycling Technologies, Inc. (A.E.R.T.), which is twice as long as most
composite decking materials. Its patented process encapsulates wood fiber in
plastic making it resistant to rot and insects. This makes ChoiceDek a favorite

excellent choice for the environment.
· EZ Deck - www.ezdeck.com In order to maintain the original
appearance of wood on a deck, it must be maintained by painting or staining.
Even with this diligent care, insects or the elements take their toll and it is
not long before replacement is necessary. EZ Deck boards are made with a
fiberglass reinforced composite that is specifically designed for decks. These
components provide a very stable product which is nearly impervious to the
forces of nature and able to withstand the demands of a deck surface.
~Atlanta Georgia Deck Refinishing~
If you own an older Georgia wood deck and would like a new composite deck
with low maintenance railing and flooring you may be able to significantly cut
back in the cost of an all new deck. Many times an existing deck's
structure, since most are constructed using a pressure treated lumber, is still
in great condition and would last for many, many years down the road. We can
take off the old rail and floor and replace it with the materials of your
choice. We can also add additional deck area to your existing deck
and make it look like a totally new addition to your backyard. Call us to
schedule a free estimate on your project and one of our salesman will come out
and we will inspect your existing deck and determine if we can use the current
framing for the new deck space.
