Deck structures provide neat and sturdy living spaces that mirror interior conveniences while set in the ultimate, great outdoors.

This course discusses the performance characteristics and benefits of using multi-layer, cellular PVC decking—a durable decking material that replicates the unique beauty of exotic hardwood.
