“David and his team did an amazing job on a large project at my lake house! DG Builders performed a complete Trex deck remodel, built an extensive lighted stair case, built a cedar pergola, installed a large deck undercover and painted the entire house after re-roofing the house! A great “turn-key” experience! Would highly recommend DG Builders!”

  • Kevin MacIntosh: "We needed to replace our old deck and wanted to add a screened in porch and stone fire-pit. David and his crew were great to work with! They were professional and responsive to all our requests. As the project unfolded and I found myself wanting to tweak the initial design in certain areas and David had great suggestions. I truly felt like their ultimate goal was to make sure I was happy with every step along the way. Very happy with the end result and the family is loving our additional outdoor living area. I would definitely recommend DG Builders to anyone wanting to start a project like this!!!"
  • Mary Dunlap: "Our experience with DG Builders was personal from the beginning. We felt they were sincerely interested in our vision and wanted to help make it a reality. Their subcontractors were timely and professional, their team was polite and patient with us, and in the end, we got exactly what we wanted—a gorgeous screened-in porch, Trex deck, and patio. Thank you so much DG!!"
  • Frances Delcalzo: "While doing work in my neighborhood, flatbed driver destroyed my mailbox. I spoke with the crew chief Hector who apologized then had someone pick up new one. They replaced it perfectly. They were considerate and professional. Thank you for a quick responsible solution."

Frequently Asked Questions about Decks in Oconee County, SC

  • Durability:
    • Weather Resistance: Composite decking is more resistant to weather extremes like humidity, intense sunlight, and heavy rain. It won't warp, crack, or splinter like wood.
    • Insect Resistance: Unlike wood, composite materials are not susceptible to termites and other wood-boring insects.
  • Low Maintenance:
    • No Need for Staining or Sealing: Composite decks don't require regular staining, sealing, or painting like wooden decks. A simple cleaning with soap and water usually suffices.
    • Mold and Mildew Resistance: Composite materials are less likely to develop mold and mildew, a significant issue in humid climates.
  • Longevity:
    • Longer Lifespan: Composite decking generally lasts longer than wood decking, often coming with warranties of 25 years or more.
  • Aesthetics:
    • Consistent Appearance: Composite decking maintains its color and appearance longer than wood, which can fade and weather over time.
    • Variety of Styles: Composite decking comes in a wide range of colors and finishes, often mimicking the look of natural wood.
  • Environmental Considerations:
    • Recycled Materials: Many composite decks are made from recycled plastics and wood fibers, making them a more environmentally friendly choice compared to new lumber.
  • Safety:
    • Slip Resistance: Composite materials can be designed to be more slip-resistant than wood, beneficial in South Carolina's wet conditions.
  • No Splinters: Composite decking doesn't splinter, making it safer for bare feet and pets.

Trex decking is a composite material made from up to 95% recycled materials, including reclaimed sawdust and recycled plastic film. This plastic comes from common household items like dry cleaner bags, newspaper bags, grocery bags, and plastic overwrap on packaging. The plastic improves the wood's resistance to water and insect damage. Trex also uses eco-friendly manufacturing processes.

Yes! We use hidden fasteners with our composite decking to provide a clean, seamless look.

.

  1. Clear the deck's surface and sweep away any large debris.
  2. Spray down with a hose to remove smaller debris and dirt.
  3. Gently scrub the surface with a soft-bristle brush and warm, soapy water.
  4. Rinse thoroughly using a hose.

Trex decking offers a 50-year warranty on their Transcend line, a 25-year warranty on Enhance Basics and Naturals, but they expect it to last a lifetime.

As a licensed Trex retailer, we consider Trex to be the best composite decking to install.

We recommend using picture frame boards on deck and stair treads.

Depending on the scope of work and any necessary preparations, most composite decks can be built within 2-8 weeks.

The process is simple:

  1. Introductory phone call: Discuss your needs and desires.
  2. On-site design consultation (if we're a good fit): David, our licensed homebuilder and owner, will discuss the scope of work, budget, and schedule.
  3. Formal proposal (if you choose to move forward): David will write up a proposal for your project.
  4. Contract and work schedule (upon acceptance): We will provide a contract and schedule for work to begin.

Once complete, you'll become a happy client with a beautiful outdoor living area!
