Re: Longest Pressure Treated Decking?

I'm near Richmond VA. I found 20's online at Strober-Generals web site. I deal with The Contractor YArd alot and I think they are owned by Strober-General. I will find out at 7am when they open. I'm building a screened in porch that's 12x17.6 and I would like no seams if possible.
