Has anyone used high density polyethylene (no fillers & no pvc) for their decks? We are replacing our redwood deck (needs it very badly!)...We have heard pros and cons about this and want to know what anyone thinks of replacing a wood deck with a plastic one. Check out http://www.fourseaonsdecking.com
Thanks for any opinions,

Nancy,

To bad no one got back with you. I hope by now you've gotten the deck you wanted! We used the plastic wooding for raised garden beds and haven't had any problems at all. I prefer it!
