Homeowners want decking products that offer the great look of wood in a product that last, and with the benefits of minimal upkeep. For many professional deck builders the ideal decking solution is a product they can stake their reputation on.It was those issues that brought Portico Composite Decking into existence. Portico was created by a group of independent lumberyards looking to supply their professional customers (and in turn their customers) with an excellent composite lumber product that would cut like wood, provide a low hassle installation, and stand the test of time by making the only call backs a thank you.

Building Codes

Once you have established the location and design of your deck, a good deck building tip is to check local building codes, regulations, and zoning restrictions.

PORTICO DECKING 

Many composites are made from recycled plastics and a mixture of wood and rag fibers. Over time, lesser quality products can break down. Not Portico. Portico is made from a tested formula furniture quality maple wood flour encapsulated in strong 100% virgin High Density Polyethelyne.

Portico Decking products are designed to stand up to the harshest weather conditions. UV inhibitors and stabilizing additives minimize color variations. Portico Decking stays beautiful long after installation. We stand behind our product with a 20 year limited warranty.

PORTICO ECLIPSE DECKING 

Portico Eclipse Decking is the way to give the deck its best appearance. Eclipse offers a smooth, continuous surface that highlights the premium quality look of Portico's boards.

Portico's Eclipse reversible boards are tough, have substance when you stand on them, and have the look of a hardwood floor with no fasteners in sight.

Building Permit

In addition to the permit, the building inspector may visit your deck site during construction to check the foundation and structure.

PORTICO COMPOSITE RAILING 

Sculpted top rails and elegant bottom rails bring a traditional look and balance to this low maintenance railing system. Easy to handle, assemble and install with standard woodworking tools.

PORTICO HORIZON RAILING 

MISSION
The traditional look of our Mission Railing is ideal for decks and porches where the convenience of a flat top is desired.

PROVINCIAL
For a freshly painted wood look with an elegant style and shape, the provincial rail system is the perfect choice. Strong, durable, and stable the Provincial come from a time when craftsmanship was king.

REGENCY
Identical top and bottom rails provide a uniform balance to this economical railing. Both rails are routed for quick and easy installation.

Digging and Pouring Footings

A good deck-building tip is to check for pipes and power lines prior to digging any holes to avoid expensive damages.

INSTALLATION 

No special tools are needed. Working with Portico Composite Decking products is as easy as working with wood. Whether you're cutting, nailing, drilling or routing, traditional woodworking tools will do the job. Always remember your safety glasses, dust mask and protective clothing.

CARE AND CLEANING 

Portico Composite Decking is primarily wood-based, and will require occasional cleaning. Most conventional deck cleaners work well on everyday dirt and traffic areas.
