FAQ

What is the TimberTech Deck Quiz and Visualizer?

The TimberTech decking quiz is a short set of questions that matches your project with the best TimberTech decking, railing, and lighting. It takes about three minutes.

The TimberTech Deck Visualizer is an AI-powered tool that lets you upload a photo of your home and see a recommended TimberTech decking collection on your own deck. You can judge the real wood look of TimberTech decking against your siding, trim, and roof before you talk to a contractor or pick a color. Start with the TimberTech decking quiz to get your collection match.

How do I see TimberTech decking on my house?

To see TimberTech decking on your house, take the decking quiz, review your recommended collection, and upload a photo of your home in the Deck Visualizer. The quiz takes about three minutes and asks about your project type, lifestyle, and design preferences. The Deck Visualizer then shows that TimberTech collection on your own home and deck. To explore deck plans, layouts, and sizes, try the Deck Designer Tool.

How do I choose a decking collection?

Choose decking by weighing four things: how you use the space, the look you want, how much upkeep you'll accept, and your budget. TimberTech decking is made for the real wood look with no sanding, staining, or sealing, so the real choice comes down to style and price. The decking quiz weighs these factors and gives you a collection match. Free samples let you compare boards in person.

Do I have to take the decking quiz before using the Deck Visualizer?

Yes, taking the quiz first is the recommended path to the Deck Visualizer. It matches you with a TimberTech collection based on your needs and wants, and the Deck Visualizer shows that collection on your home.

Is the Deck Visualizer free to use?

Yes, there is no salesperson, no commitment. Visualize your TimberTech decking collection on your own home for free.

What photo works best in the Deck Visualizer, and can I use my phone?

A clear, well-lit, straight-on photo that shows your whole deck area and the back or side of your home usually works best.

How are the decking quiz and Deck Visualizer different from the Deck Designer?

The decking quiz and Deck Visualizer help you choose a TimberTech look and see it on your own home. The Deck Designer plans the deck itself: layout, structure, and a materials list. The Deck Designer requires sign-up and works on desktop and tablet only, not phones. Use the personalized quiz first to decide what you like, then use the Deck Designer to plan the build.
