Please, look at the blue bar
at the top of the page.
Push the "Search" button, and search for
Correct Deck, and CX.
If there are still questions, come back then.

Correct deck is a great product. I reccomend gettting the CX for the mildew resistance.

The color fades a bit after install but it's nothing like other composites.

The Fastenator HFS clips are easy to use and look great. Clips are faster then face screwing and final product looks 1000x better

If you run into trouble with the clips, just don't tighten them until the next board is in place. The #7 bit will clear the 1/8" gap easily. Polypropylene is good stuff! CX is glossy but worth the extra $$. I just took delivery for my 16 x 24 project with notch for a hot tub. Demo pictures will be posted later. What a cluster F I just removed!

We have one customer who is not happy with Correct Deck! It was before CX and gets mold that keeps coming back.
Make sure you use Correct Deck CX.

I bet they never pressure washed per recommendations.

North side of the house is still...north side of the house. Even CX will skum up. It will just be easier to maintain. Also, what kind of drainage did they have under the deck? My bet would be top soil coverage.

I am not sure how you could have questions if you read through all the threads about Correct Deck. The clips are the easiest clips I have ever worked with and CX is the only product I try to sell. In fact if you look at this ad slick that is me. I really do feel this is a great product.
