                > Cevil, Nothing seems to go down in price other than
                gasoline that fluctuates widely at times.  I understand
                why you would build with steel vs stick wood. I've been
                trying to get a relatively large deck built on to the
                house the last year or so.  Didn't work out last summer
                going to try again this year. Wood has increased in
                price so much that composite looks very attractive now. 
                Used composite on my deck in AZ and am very pleased with
                how it has stood up to the intense sun and heat there. 
                Here in WA the enemy is rain and almost constant
                dampness. The exact opposite.  Have to use a different
                composite here due to the unique weather.  Will start
                getting bids again soon.  I suspect the bids will
                increase substantially.Sent from my Galaxy<br>
