I'll do this post in two parts due to the number of pictures. 8 years ago I tore out wood deck that had been constructed with dougles fir construction left overs. It was originally painted but deteriorated rapidly. By the time I tore it out, it was rotting and sagging.
I explored all the alternatives to replace it but did not like them, either due to the maintanance or the cost. I stumbled on this process while obtaining cultured stone products for a house refresh project.
It was a lot more work than I intended but turned out quite fabulous. The beauty of it was that it only cost about 20% more than an eight year old material bid for a conventional cedar deck.
Hope you enjoy!
