Anyone have any experience with TimberTech or similiar "plastic" deck lumber surface?
A friend of mine was dismayed when the mitered corners that "framed" the step between his house and deck "exploded". They had been tight when installed, but a few weeks of afternoon sun must have expanded the boards. I think they were Trex. I suppose there might have been some warpage of the substructure; the takeaway seems to be avoid miters. I never walked on the deck barefoot but understand the plastic can get uncomfortably hot.
