Thank you for a great product and super great customer service!!
My back deck and front porch were in dire need of repair or replacing so I obtained a quote to have both decks redone and a $7,600 estimate is what convinced me to find a more affordable option. I am a 74 year old grandma and wasn't sure I could do this so I started doing my homework. I researched on the internet, requested samples from 3 different companies and asked a lot of questions. I ultimately decided on Newtechwood as I preferred the product sample and the customer service at newtechwood.com was and has been phenomenal. The tiles and borders are all precision cut and fit together easily. Since my decks are not exactly any measurement of 12" tiles, I needed to do alot of cutting and pasting. I did not have a cutting device so I looked at Home Depot and found a great little tool, the Worx Compact Circular Saw. Although I was afraid at first since I had never in my entire life operated a circular saw, I practiced a little and then plunged right in and started cutting. So easy. Just mark where you want to cut and then follow the line with the blade. Since I had to cut off the interlocking edges, I then attached the cut tile and border with epoxy, let it set up and then used liquid nails on the bottom side to secure it. It has been a little challenging getting the cut edges even and although some are not exact, they are close enough for a deck project and I am happy! I laid this product over the top of my existing deck boards as both decks were very sturdy and I did not have to replace any support boards. It is secure and doesn't move however before I added my grill and table, I was able to shift the entire deck by myself. Since adding the weight, it absolutely doesn't move. So happy with my new decks and thrilled that I won't have to restain, repaint or replace my deck boards every year! Yay!!
