Does the kickoff of a new year have you thinking about a new deck? If you see a deck construction project in your future, make sure to get a quote from Crank Waterproofing. Crank builds decks too! Here’s the latest in deck trends.
Deck Construction with Trex Composite
Orange County homeowners are turning to composite deck materials like Trex. Composite can’t be destroyed by termites. And that is just one reasons why composite is a hot decking material. Termites don’t eat it and it’s impervious to dry rot. No regular painting, staining, or waterproofing is necessary. You can form composite, that’s not easy with wood.
Just heat the composite decking and shape and turn it however you want. Once cooled, Trex retains the new shape and structural integrity. This means can create curves where you want. That’s not easy when you build with wood.
Decorative Railings
Deck railings are imperative if your deck doesn’t sit at ground level. But today’s deck railings are as beautiful as they are functional.
From wrought iron to clear glass panels, railings elevate the style of your elevated deck. 
Just check out the railings used on this deck and stairwell. They provided safety without obstructing the view. And because they aren’t wood, they don’t need regular waterproofing or termite protection.
Or how about these railings?
When you have a view that’s this spectacular, why would you obstruct it with traditional railings? You wouldn’t. So, Crank Deck created an almost invisible design. Bet you don’t think about railings the same way now do you?
Faux Finish
If you want a concrete deck, there’s no reason it should look like concrete. Top the concrete with a decorative coating before the waterproof finish goes down.
The faux tile finish was created with tape and cement pigments. Tile is a hassle to maintain. You don’t want a deck construction project to create you a maintenance nightmare do you? This artistic creation is finished with a waterproof coating to keep it dry and looking good for years.
This faux finish is flagstone. The homeowner opted for a finish and grout lines in the same color.
The beauty of concrete is it’s flexibility. You can finish it with stenciling or stamping. You can even add texture if you want.
