Mike & Lori’s deck update for the future

Knowing their home would stay in the family, Mike and Lori updated their deck from wood to TimberTech.

Hooksett, NH

Mike and Lori don’t just live in a home, they live in a legacy. Built by Lori’s father in 1984, the house was passed down to them and they intend to pass it down to their children as well. Knowing their decks are engineered to last a lifetime makes them feel even better about choosing TimberTech decking. “My dad built this house, and having a good way to update it makes me really proud,” said Lori. “He would be super happy,” added Mike.

“Once you experience TimberTech, there is no other choice. It’s that good.”

– Mike

When it comes to updating their family home, they don’t do anything by half measures. They’ve added or updated not one but four decks with TimberTech — plus, they have plans for a fifth and an expansion of their main deck.

Lori thought her color options would be limited, but TimberTech surprised her. “The variety was amazing,” said Lori, “TimberTech had the perfect colors to match.” To complement their home, Mike and Lori chose TimberTech Advanced PVC decking in French White Oak, from the Landmark Collection^™, and RadianceRail Express railing in Kona with Aluminum Balusters.

Knowing that their home will stay in the family, the durability and longevity of TimberTech is a big plus for Mike and Lori. “Things wear out, but this TimberTech deck just keeps going” said Mike. “We are customers for life.”

“The quality is so nice and the wood grain looks just beautiful,” said Lori about TimberTech’s real wood looks. “And it came out amazing,” added Mike, “it just looks incredible.”

“We get some crazy weather up here,” said Lori, “and we needed something to withstand all the seasons.” Resistant to moisture, stains, and fading, TimberTech is engineered to beautifully manage whatever New Hampshire weather throws at it.

As an avid beekeeper, Mike appreciates the value of doing a service to the community and environment — and the sustainability of TimberTech. “TimberTech is making a profound difference in the world,” said Mike.

With grandchildren visiting, safety is a priority for Mike and Lori, so railing was an important part of their deck design plans. “We spent a lot of time looking at railing, and with the matching balusters and rails there was no question we’d go with TimberTech,” said Mike. “Plus, it’s super low maintenance — it was a no-brainer.”

Lori is wrapped in a blanket and is standing next to Mike, who wraps his arm around her. The two have big grins on their face and are facing the mountain view from their deck.

With their house perched on a hill with a fairly steep drop-off, Mike and Lori never got much use out of their land. Now that they have their TimberTech decks, they spend more time outdoors, enjoying their mountain views. “We love that we can sit on the deck and watch the sun set behind the mountains,” said Lori.
