CHOICE DEK

We spent 13,000 on a deck less than a year ago and it is a mildew mess. Nothing cleans it up. I can't believe people are still buying this product. Not sure where to turn for satisfaction. I see a lot of posts for other products with similar problems. Not sure if its just a bad batch or what. Mine was dated DEC 05

I'M sure it wasn't a bad batch - it appears all the composite decking materials have the same problem. Ours has mildewed and warped and is less than 4 years old and looks a mess.

Nice to know something is being done. Wonder how you get in on the class action settlement? Thanks for the update.

i use choice decking in my dock business and it lightens up quickly
My clients like the lighter look for the coolness on there feet(beach house grey)
If you do leave a object in 1 place before it fades it does show up.
relocate the object in a couple of weeks it matches.

i have been using the choice decking at the beach for years
have not run into the mold issue.

I used it on my dock, for the deck and fence. I need to find the beach house gray 2 x 4's, need 8 and cannot locate. Lowes still has them on their web site, but when I order (tried twice) it is cancelled by them.
Can anyone help fjd6@verizon.net

We have had our choice dek cleaned professionally every 1 to 2 years. However our "guaranteed decking" (I swear it was 30 years) Has now broken through on two boards that just snapped in half. There is another section that is "wobbly" and I fear same will happen. Anyone know if we can get $$ from them for replacement board? We never knew about this class action suit. We ordered a terracotta color that bleached out to beach gray in 2 years...we just sighed and let it go. luckily I still have the original 2004 ash register receipt. Anyone know who I can approach with this to get things fixed? Thanks for any help. dittusjudy@gmail
