Trex & Composite Decks
Trex and composite deck installation for Bountiful area homeowners, built by a licensed general contractor from footings to railings.
A Trex or composite deck build replaces old wood decking with boards that will not rot, split, or need yearly staining. Construction Solutions of Utah installs Trex and other composite decking as our specialty, from design through footings, framing, decking, and railings. Composite boards cost more up front than wood, but they need far less upkeep over the years you own the deck.
What is included in a Trex or composite deck build?
A full deck build starts with footings and framing sized to hold the deck safely. Next comes the composite decking boards, laid over the frame. We finish with railings, stairs if the deck needs them, and any built in features like a bench or planter box. We also handle the city permit for your project, so the work is inspected and built to code. See our full general contractor and remodeling services.
Why choose Trex and composite decking, and what styles do we build?
Composite decking does not rot, split, or splinter the way wood can. It also skips the yearly staining and sealing that keeps a wood deck looking good. Published decking guides put a composite deck's lifespan at 25 years or more, well past a wood deck's typical 10 to 15 years. Many homeowners pay more up front for composite and save on maintenance every year after.
We build single level decks, multi level decks that step down a sloped yard, and decks with built in stairs and railings. Composite boards come in several colors and widths, so the deck can match your home's style. We measure your yard first, then design a layout that fits how your family uses the space, from grilling to seating to a hot tub pad.
What upkeep does a composite deck need?
A composite deck needs far less work than a wood deck. Sweep off leaves and debris, hose it down a few times a year, and check that railings and stairs stay tight. You skip the sanding, staining, and sealing that a wood deck needs every two to three years. That saved time and cost is the main reason homeowners choose composite for a new deck.
How do composite decks hold up in Utah weather?
Utah backyards see hot, dry summers and cold winters with real snow load. Composite boards do not warp, crack, or fade in the sun the way untreated wood can. Snow and ice do not soak into the boards, so freeze and thaw cycles cause less damage over time. A composite deck built on properly sized footings and framing holds up through all four seasons.
What permits and material options should you know about?
Most new decks in Utah need a building permit from your city, especially if the deck attaches to your house or sits above a certain height. A permit means an inspector checks the footings, framing, and railings for safety. We pull the permit for your deck project and manage the inspections, so you do not have to deal with the paperwork yourself.
Trex is our specialty, but we also work with other composite and PVC decking brands. Each brand has its own board profile, color range, and warranty terms, which come from the manufacturer, not from us. We walk you through the options side by side so you can compare the look, the feel underfoot, and the price before you decide.
One crew for framing, footings, and finish work
A deck build touches several trades: digging and pouring footings, framing the structure, laying the decking boards, and building railings and stairs. As a licensed general contractor, we run every step with one crew, so the work lines up in the right order and stays on schedule. You get one point of contact from start to finish. We also handle kitchen remodeling, bathroom remodeling, and home additions the same way.

Cost of trex & composite decks in Bountiful
Installed composite decking like Trex generally runs about $20 to $30 per square foot once you count materials and labor together, compared with roughly $14 to $20 per square foot for pressure treated wood, based on published 2026 decking cost guides. For an average 320 square foot deck, that is about $6,400 to $9,600 for composite versus $4,480 to $6,400 for wood. These are market ranges, not our quotes. As of February 2026.
What moves the price:
- Decking material tier: standard capped composite, PVC, or premium multi layer boards
- Deck size and whether it has more than one level
- Railing type: composite, cable, glass, or metal
- Footings, framing, and how high the deck sits above the ground
- Removing and hauling away an old deck before the new build starts
Every job is different, so we give you an exact price up front, and you approve it before any work starts.

Do you specialize in Trex and composite decks?
Yes. Decks, especially Trex and composite builds, are our specialty at Construction Solutions of Utah. Composite holds up to Utah sun, snow, and years of use without the yearly staining or sealing a wood deck needs. We are licensed in Utah, number 14241087-5501, and insured, so a specialist crew handles your build from footings to railings.
Is a Trex or composite deck worth the extra cost over a wood deck?
Composite costs more up front. Published 2026 decking guides put installed composite around $20 to $30 a square foot, against about $14 to $20 for pressure treated wood. Wood needs staining and sealing every two to three years, and that upkeep adds up. Over time, that repeat maintenance closes the price gap, since composite skips it almost entirely.
How long does it take to build a deck?
Most Trex and composite deck builds take one to three weeks once the design is set, depending on the size and how many levels or stairs it has. Footings and framing come first, then decking, railings, and any built in features. City permit review times can add a few days. We give you a clear schedule before work starts, so you know what to expect.
What is the difference between Trex and other composite decking?
Trex is one of the most established composite decking brands, made from recycled wood fiber and plastic. Other composite and PVC brands use similar materials with their own board profiles, colors, and warranty terms. We work with Trex and other composite lines, and we help you compare boards side by side so you pick the one that fits your budget and your yard.
Do composite decks hold up to Utah snow and sun?
Yes. Composite boards like Trex do not rot, split, or splinter, which matters through Utah's cold, snowy winters and strong summer sun. The color is built into the board, so it will not need yearly staining the way a wood deck does. Regular sweeping and an occasional hose down is usually enough to keep a composite deck looking good year round.
