Composite Decks built for Gleneagle homes
Composite decking is the low-maintenance answer to Gleneagle's climate — late-summer hail is the biggest weather risk — flashings and covers matter, plus the UV load at 6,900 ft that fades untreated wood in a few seasons. Capped composite lines hold color well, don't splinter, and need a rinse instead of a re-stain every year.
We install composite tops over a proper pressure-treated substructure. When the build calls for it, we can spec hidden fasteners, joist tape, and picture-frame borders — the details that make composite last.

Hidden Fasteners & Picture-Frame Border
Fastener-free surface with a clean picture-frame edge. Cut ends are hidden; expansion gaps are set for our temperature swings.
Composite & Metal Railings
Railings sized for moderate but real wind loads — powder-coated aluminum, cable, or matching composite top rail.

Composite Decks FAQs — Gleneagle
+ Which composite works best for Gleneagle?
At 6,900 ft the biggest concerns are UV fade and heat gain. We steer clients toward mid-tone boards on south- and west-facing decks in Gleneagle's many lots open east toward the plains for morning sun, and we bring samples to the on-site visit.
+ Is composite worth it compared to cedar in Gleneagle?
For most Gleneagle homeowners, yes — cedar looks great but typically needs a re-stain every 1–2 years thanks to late-summer hail is the biggest weather risk — flashings and covers matter and high-altitude UV. Composite costs more up front and roughly evens out over time.
+ Does composite hold up to Gleneagle's weather?
The board itself is the easy part; the substructure is where quality shows up. We frame every Gleneagle composite deck for the local climate and follow the composite maker's joist-spacing spec.
+ Can you install composite over my existing frame in Gleneagle?
Only if the frame is sound and spaced correctly for composite. We inspect first — many older Gleneagle decks are joisted at 24" o.c., which is too wide for most composite lines. If it's close, we sister joists; if not, we reframe.
+ Do you install hidden fasteners and picture-frame borders in Gleneagle?
Yes — both are standard on our composite installs. A picture-frame border cleans up cut ends, and hidden clips keep the surface fastener-free.
+ How long does a composite deck last in Gleneagle?
Manufacturer warranties vary by product line — we walk through the current options at the on-site visit. A properly framed substructure and a well-installed composite top hold up for a long time in Gleneagle's climate with minimal upkeep.
