We built this deck in Lake Oswego as a replacement for an old set of cedar decks. The old decks were slippery when wet and a real hazard to walk on. We used Timbertech Earthwood Evolutions Pacific walnut decking, the Timbertech Builder rail for the railing, and installed an Arke Eureka metal spiral staircase to get down to the back yard. It was a much needed improvement and raised the property value of the house too!
