Maryland’s humidity, hard winters, and Chesapeake Bay air are not kind to undersized materials. Diamond Decks selects every board, joist, railing, and drainage component based on what holds up in the field, not what looks good on a spec sheet.

Diamond Decks holds Fiberon Ambassador status, the brand’s highest tier of certified installer recognition, with full manufacturer warranty support on every project.
The most recognized name in composite decking, with a multi-tier product line covering a wide range of budgets and performance requirements.
TimberTech is a capped composite with a wood-fiber core. Azek is 100% solid PVC with no wood fiber content at any point in the board.
Capped composite boards built for long-term color retention and consistent grain character, now under Owens Corning.
Vault and Voyage boards are built from stone mineral composite rather than wood fiber, producing lower thermal expansion than any wood-based composite on the market
The framing is the one part of the build that no one sees again once the decking is down. Diamond Decks frames every project above the production-builder standard.
Diamond Decks installs white vinyl as the standard option and presents aluminum as the performance upgrade on every project.
Every deck gap is a drain. Zip Up and Trex Rain Escape capture that water before it reaches the framing below.
Diamond Decks installs low-voltage LED fixtures from two product lines, matching the railing and decking system for each project.

Capped composite boards consist of wood fiber bonded with a polymer and wrapped in a protective shell. Solid PVC boards contain no wood fiber, so there is no pathway for moisture absorption or rot at the board level. For most residential projects, capped composite performs well. For high-moisture applications, solid PVC is the more conservative option.
Rarely advisable. Board thickness, thermal expansion rate, and groove profiles vary by manufacturer. Diamond Decks recommends staying within a single brand system on any given deck surface.
Degraded framing is the most expensive failure mode on a deck. A fading surface board is a nuisance. A joist that rots out requires demolition and structural reconstruction.
No. Zip Up and Trex Rain Escape are water management systems, not waterproofing systems. They capture and redirect water from normal rain events. Diamond Decks will tell you that before any product commitment is made.
Yes. Each manufacturer specifies fastening system requirements tied to their warranty. Diamond Decks installs the correct fastening system for each brand on every project.
