As a Seattle deck builder, our Olympic Decks team replaced a rotted 408-square-foot wood deck at an association’s front entrance. The project included AZEK Vintage PVC decking in English Walnut, two staircases, cable railing, step lights, and Grade #1 pressure-treated lumber. Our four-person crew completed the work in one week, adapting the replacement to an existing design dating from 1973.

The Challenge
Wood rot had affected the community’s front-entry deck, which required replacement. Working with the existing structure’s 1973 design also presented a challenge: updating the entrance while keeping the new construction close to the association’s vision.
According to the association’s project manager, our crew marked off the work area and cleaned the site before leaving each day.
The Association’s Goals
The association wanted to replace the deteriorated decking with AZEK Vintage PVC and have the finished deck reflect its vision for the shared entrance.

We installed AZEK Vintage PVC decking in English Walnut across the deck’s walking surface and two staircases, along with cable railing and step lights. Our crew also used Grade #1 pressure-treated lumber in the deck construction.
