Wood decks have a lot going for them, until Michigan weather gets involved. Warping, cracking, splintering, and the relentless cycle of staining and sealing make traditional wood a high-maintenance commitment that adds up in both time and money. TimberTech composite decking was engineered to solve those problems, delivering the natural warmth and character of wood without the ongoing upkeep that comes with it.
As Greater Lansing composite deck builders, Custom Built has helped hundreds of homeowners build outdoor spaces that stay beautiful season after season. We know the TimberTech product line inside and out, and we bring the same craftsmanship to every TimberTech deck we build that we bring to every project we take on.
Common Deck Problems TimberTech Composite Decking Solves

Common Deck Problems TimberTech Composite Decking Solves
Endless Maintenance Cycles
Between sanding, staining, and sealing every year, a wood deck can feel like a part-time job. TimberTech composite deck boards are designed to hold their finish long-term with nothing more than a periodic cleaning.
Boards That Warp & Splinter Over Time
Wood naturally expands and contracts with Michigan's temperature swings, eventually leading to warped, cupped, or splintered boards that become a safety hazard underfoot. TimberTech composite decking holds its shape and stays smooth season after season.
Color That Fades After a Few Seasons
Wood loses its color quickly without regular refinishing. TimberTech composite decking colors are locked in by a protective capping system that resists UV damage and keeps the surface looking fresh without annual treatments.
Moisture, Rot, & Insect Vulnerability
Michigan's wet springs create ideal conditions for rot and insect damage in wood decking. TimberTech composite deck boards are capped on all four sides, sealing out the moisture and organic material that wood-boring insects and rot need to take hold.
Fire Safety Concerns
Wood decks and outdoor fire features aren't always a comfortable combination. TimberTech composite decking fire resistance gives homeowners added peace of mind around fire pits, grills, and patio heaters.
