Get Your Free EstimateA Trex Decks build includes removing your old structure if needed, pouring concrete footings deep enough for Cicero frost lines, framing a solid pressure-treated wood or steel subframe, and laying down high-performance composite decking boards with hidden fasteners. Prairie Crest Deckworks handles every piece of the puzzle from the ledger board connection against your house down to the final railing post caps.
Prairie Crest Deckworks builds these Trex Decks to handle the local climate swings. Cicero gets freezing winters and humid summers that tear up traditional wood within a few seasons. Trex composite boards use a heavy-duty plastic shell wrapped completely around a recycled wood and plastic core. That shield keeps moisture out so homeowners never have to worry about mold, rot, or termites chewing up the investment.
Prairie Crest Deckworks pulls all the required local permits from the Town of Cicero building department before swinging a hammer. Inspections matter here, and our team makes sure your setbacks, post depths, and ledger attachments pass code the first time. You do not want headaches from the city down the road, so we do it right according to local residential rules.
Homeowners often ask us if composite gets too hot in the summer sun. Trex offers different product lines with heat-mitigating technology in the shell, which makes a noticeable difference on bare feet during July afternoons compared to older composite materials. We can show you samples during our initial site visit so you pick the right color and thermal rating for your yard in Cicero.
Once built, your new Trex Decks need almost zero upkeep. You skip the annual power washing, sanding, and staining routine. A simple wash with soap and water twice a year keeps it looking sharp for decades, backed by strong manufacturer fading and staining warranties. For homes and businesses in Cicero, Prairie Crest Deckworks provides Trex Decks services.
A properly installed Trex Decks project lasts 25 to 30 years or more with practically no structural degradation. Winters in Cicero drop temperatures well below freezing while summers bring heavy humidity and intense sun. Traditional wood expands, contracts, and splits under those extreme shifts, forcing homeowners to replace boards every few years.
Trex composite material resists moisture absorption completely. Freezing water trapped inside wood grain causes splitting during winter thaws, but the high-density polyethylene shell on Trex boards blocks water out entirely. Your deck stays flat, safe, and stable year after year.
The structural framing underneath matters just as much as the deck boards. Prairie Crest Deckworks uses heavy-gauge galvanized joist tape and flashing to protect the wood substructure from trapped moisture where boards touch joists, doubling the lifespan of the entire build.
