- Make Sure You Have the Right Tools for the Job. Installing composite decking correctly requires you to have the right tools, most of which are the same used for a wood deck build.
- Ensure You Have a Sturdy Substructure. Installing composite decking requires your deck have a properly installed (and maintained) substructure for lasting structural integrity.
- Protect Your Substructure With Joist Tape. Since your substructure is likely made with traditional lumber, it is vulnerable to moisture damage over time.
- Considerations Before Installing Composite Deck Boards. Now that your substructure is protected, it’s time to prep for installing your composite deck board installation.
- t Practices for Installing Composite Deck Boards By Fastener Type. The process for installing composite decking will vary depending on the type of board and fastener you’re using.
- Give Your Deck a Finished Look With Fascia. Fascia refers to the boards that run along the perimeter of your deck, covering the rim joists. Fascia gives your deck a sleek, seamless finish.
- Learn How to Make Your Build Easier. Now that you know the best practices for installing composite decking, it’s time to start thinking about your deck design.

- Flatten Joists to Avoid a Wavy Deck. Most PVC and composite products aren’t as rigid as wood, so they don’t bridge imperfections in the framing as well.
- Beware of Dark Colors when Choosing Composites. Boards with dark colors can get blistering hot when the sun is beating down on them. If you like to go barefoot, consider a lighter color.
- Hide Composite Ends. Many PVC and Trex composite decking products are not the same color all the way through, so you’ll want to cover the ends. One solution is to “picture frame” the deck by installing Trex deck boards around the perimeter.
- Protect Joists From Rot. Pressure-treated lumber is rot-resistant, not rot-proof. Two places our pros often see deterioration are along the top edge, where the decking traps moisture, and between two joists sandwiched together.
- Check Deck Joist Spacing. If you’re planning to replace old wood decking with PVC or composite, measure the deck joist spacing first. Most deck joists are centered 16 inches apart, which is the maximum deck joist spacing for most low-maintenance decking.
- Avoid Random Splices. Use splice boards to eliminate random splices in long runs. If your deck is 24 feet long, don’t use random-length boards and butt-joint them together.
- Hide the Screws. When it comes to fastening PVC or composite decking, all three of our pros like the Cortex concealed fastening system. You just countersink the screws using the special bit included with the kit, and hammer in a plug that’s made of the same material as the decking.
- Stair Rails Made Simple. Stair railings are one of the trickiest parts of any deck project. Some aluminum manufacturers offer a preassembled railing that racks to whatever angle you need.
- Mix and Match. You don’t have to stick with one type of product or one look for the entire deck. Our pros mix and match all the time: composite posts with aluminum rails, composite rails with aluminum spindles.
- Connectors Make Railings Easier. Creating a tight fit between a composite deck posts and a rail is difficult — even pros struggle with it. Railing connectors make it easy.
