Choosing Between Green Shield Deck Builders and TimberTech: What Southeast Michigan Homeowners Need to Know

When planning to enhance your outdoor living space, selecting the right decking material and contractor is a crucial decision. Southeast Michigan homeowners are often presented with two prominent options: Green Shield Deck Builders, which uses TruNorth Composites™ materials, and TimberTech®, a leading name in the composite decking industry. Understanding the differences between these options can help you make an informed choice for your home.

Green Shield Deck Builders: What You Need to Know

Green Shield Deck Builders sources its decking materials from TruNorth Composites™, a manufacturer known for using rice hulls instead of wood fibers. This unique composition offers several benefits:

Water Resistance: Rice hull composites are highly resistant to water penetration, reducing the risk of mold, rot, and swelling.
Durability: TruNorth decking is designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, making it a viable option for Michigan’s variable climate.
Sustainability: The material is eco-friendly, utilizing recycled plastics and natural rice hulls.

While these features are appealing, Green Shield’s product line may have limitations in terms of color selection, surface textures, and design versatility compared to other premium brands like TimberTech.

TimberTech Decks: The Gold Standard

Skyview Detroit specializes in TimberTech decks, a product known for its premium quality, aesthetics, and innovation. TimberTech composite decks are crafted using a proprietary blend of recycled plastics and wood fibers, offering the following advantages:

Wide Range of Styles: TimberTech offers an extensive palette of colors, finishes, and textures, allowing homeowners to create a customized look that complements their home’s aesthetic.
Exceptional Durability: TimberTech decks are engineered to resist fading, staining, and scratching, making them ideal for high-traffic areas.
Low Maintenance: With TimberTech, you can enjoy the beauty of a natural wood appearance without the need for frequent sealing or staining.
Industry-Leading Warranty: TimberTech provides one of the best warranties in the industry, giving homeowners peace of mind about their investment.

The Benefits of TimberTech PVC Decks

For homeowners seeking the ultimate in performance and style, TimberTech PVC decks are an outstanding choice. Made from 100% synthetic materials, these decks are completely free of wood, offering unparalleled resistance to moisture, mold, and insect damage. PVC decks are also lightweight yet incredibly strong, making them an ideal option for elevated or rooftop applications. With vibrant color options and realistic wood-grain textures, TimberTech PVC decks deliver the perfect combination of beauty and durability. Additionally, they’re exceptionally low-maintenance, requiring only occasional cleaning to keep them looking like new for years to come.
