As expert deck contractors with over 20 years of experience, we’ve helped hundreds of homeowners with their home improvement projects.

Benefits of PVC Decking in Illinois’ Climate
Weather Resistance Performance
For outdoor building materials, local climate presents a myriad of challenges which isn’t kind to wood decks. Between freezing winters, humid summers, and harsh sun, most wood starts cracking or warping in just a few years. That’s where PVC shines—it’s built to handle it all. However, PVC decking manages to go through extreme challenges due to being crafted for climate resilience and longevity.
Wood decking loses mold, mildew, and insect damage. Most importantly, it never requires staining or sealing. Why? Because while wood decking is sensitive to weather and needs constant maintenance, PVC decking can be enjoyed without any pressure washing or paint. Instead, weekends can actually be witnessed being enjoyed.
Cost Comparison and Investment ROI
Although pressure-treated lumber is cheaper, PVC decking is a smarter long term investment because it does not require any ongoing maintenance costs. The routine deck servicing is priced anywhere between $800 to $1,500 annually.
Unlike wood decks, PVC does not require complex maintenance contracts – a simple soapy water rinse is sufficient. Your investment is protected thanks to durability and water damage resistance, while recovering costs become likely because the value of the home increases. This option is green as well, which significantly lowers the need for chemical stain treatments that can damage landscaping and lawn areas.

Frequently Asked Questions About PVC Deck Installation
Will my deck be too hot to walk on in the summer?
Not with our PVC materials. They’re designed to reflect more heat and absorb less than traditional wood or composite decking. Even on 90-degree afternoons, they stay cooler to the touch—so you won’t burn your feet stepping outside. That means it’s safe for barefoot walks, pet paws, outdoor cushions, and little ones playing on the deck. We also help you choose lighter-colored boards and shade-friendly layouts to keep your space even more comfortable.
Does PVC decking get too hot in summer for outdoor furniture and bare feet?
Quality PVC composite materials are far cooler than traditional composite decking. Our PVC products preserve comfortable temperatures and heat resistance even on 90-degree days. Unlike most decking surfaces that reflect heat, ours does not absorb it, which enables barefoot comfort during walks throughout the summer months and makes it safe for children’s play areas.
How much does PVC deck installation cost compared to my budget expectations?
As is the case with most PVC deck construction projects in , building permits are needed, particularly when the deck is attached to your house or elevated more than 30 inches. We take care of all permit applications and inspections as part of our deck installation services. Our established relationships with local building department often lead to quicker permit approval and smoother inspection processes for home improvement projects.
Do I need permits for PVC deck installation?
Yes, most PVC deck construction projects require building permits, especially if the deck is attached to your house or elevated more than 30 inches. We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our deck installation services. Our established relationships with the local building department typically result in faster permit approval and smoother inspection processes for your home improvement project.
Can you install PVC decking over my existing wood deck structure?
As a rule of thumb, no. Old wood framing does not align with modern standards in regards to new composite material installations. Additionally, the Fox Valley area’s soil and foundation settling in older structures is often problematic. For local building compliance, we usually suggest a full deconstruction and reconstruction in order to provide concrete footings, proper drainage, and meet all local building standards. This optimizes durability while maintaining warranty coverage, and protects your investment against water damage and structural concerns.
