Google Review: We were concerned that the deck at our new house was not safe. They did a thorough inspection and were able to bring it up to code without a complete rebuild. It gives us peace of mind to know that we have a safe deck to enjoy with our family and friends. I would highly recommend!
Houzz Review: My front deck needed to be resurfaced and leveled out and the stairs werent upto code we chose lava rock for picture frame and spiced rum for infill. They were able to get the job done in just a couple days and were very professional and clean. So happy!

Houzz Review: Everyone at platinum decking was amazing. Christina was quick and efficient in our quote. She was very knowledgeable and made it a slam dunk picking this company versus other quotes. We met with Kyle at another clients home while they were finishing a deck. He answered any questions, extremely friendly, and has compassion about decking. Seeing a finished deck and the openness of Kyle solidified our choice for platinum deck to make our vision of the dream deck come true. Austin and Jason were the deck builders and were amazing. They were perfectionists and put in hard work to transform our previous “dead” wood deck into an amazing trex transcends dream deck. There is no true way of explaining how great they were to work with and the fantastic work/final product you will get. Thank you!!
Yelp Review: Very pleased with the professionalism of Matt R. Always returned phone calls in response to my questions. Justin and Austin were friendly and did a great job. I would recommend Platinum Decking for your decking needs.
Yelp Review: It was late summer when I started searching for a deck builder in my Streamwood area. The deck we had was built 30 years ago and although well maintained with deck washing and water sealing, it finally had seen better days. The layers had built up, wood dried out and sealer would no longer stick. Therefore it was time for it to be replaced with maintenance free Trex composite decking. I had searched the internet and requested quotes from three different companies. I chose Platinum Decking over the others, not only for the pricing, but because Matt went out of his way to present a flawless project from start to finish. Explained in detail about the construction, time line and materials. The original structural base of our deck was very solid so all they needed to do is resurface and reside it with the Trex and rebuilt the stairs and added the railing. I got to know Rob & Josh very well. Their deck building, measurement and placement was precise, not just a build but an art. Being a project manager in my past job, I can see who pours their heart into their job and these guys certainly did. Jimmy came later to put his expertise into building the railings. Rob worked mostly through that day it snowed like hell. And even the day before when it was raining. This is what real men are all about. Beats the pants off the postman, (rain sleet snow etc). Those Trex boards are heavy and they carried every single piece to the back yard. Their clean up was spotless and they even took down an old wooden 20 yr old swing set for me that was in our back yard. It looked better in the dumpster anyway. I cannot say enough about this work crew and this company. made this customer very happy. Best of all they were able to complete the work within 5 days and I didn’t have to wait until next spring like the other two quotes I received from the competitors. If you are in need a new deck, search no further this company is the best. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !

Google Review: Matt and team did a great job. They offered the best quote and finished the work in a very timely and high quality manner. Really excellent job overall and I would recommend them to anyone in the Chicago area who is looking to add or replace a deck. They will beat the competition by miles!
Google Review: The deck looks fantastic! The young men that built our deck were always on time, quite polite and very skilled. The railings that they installed on our front steps are amazing. We have has several compliments from our neighbors. I would highly recommend Platinum Decking. Their craftsmanship was excellent. They were a pleasure to work with from the first meeting to the cost proposal to the finished product.

Trex Decking Products
Trex offers three different product lines for decking: Transcend, Select, and Enhance.
Trex Transcend is the top composite decking material offered on the market today. Not only is it the most scratch-resistant, but the deep wood grain and its luxury colors blow every other composite decking out of the water. It will turn your high maintenance wood deck into a low maintenance work of art with lasting beauty. When investing in a 25+ year deck, Transcend is considered the Rolls-Royce. Transcend is offered in 10 different colors and is stain resistant, fade resistant, scratch resistant, and mold resistant. Simply put, it is the best product in the composite decking market.
Trex Enhance has the low maintenance benefits of composite decking at a comparable cost of wood. It comes in 8 different colors, is stain resistant, fades resistant and mold resistant.
Trex Select is also a cost-friendly option offered by Trex. It is stain resistant and comes in 5 different colors. It still has a 25-year warranty like all Trex decking but is the most susceptible to scratching and fading.
