Trex deck panels for sale

I have 320 s/f of 5/4" x 6" Trex decking, built into sturdy panels.
They were installed 5 years ago and are in very good condition (as Trex is nearly indestructible). They have been stained a dark brown and polyurethaned, so they have a much richer finish than Trex out of the box.

There are:
--9 4' x 4' panels
--5 4' x 8' panels
--Various 2x6 planks and 4x4 posts of treated pine that form the support structure beneath

Price: $900 obo. Total amount of Trex is about 600 linear feet. Trex retails for $4 per l/f. Selling here for $1.50 per l/f. Will sell in sections too.

An excellent deal.

I would highly recommend Jorge Forero, who restored and repainted my co-op's cornice in Boerum Hill. 646.637.4833.

I hired these folks a year and a half ago to shine up and seal a carrera marble floor and shower wall in my bathroom. They did an excellent job, although I will say the grouting could have been more precise (then again, maybe the original grout wasn't great. Take good before pictures). That Alex ends his voicemail greeting with "Have a Shiny Day" only adds to the charm.

Even though this is an old question I wanted to post in defense of Metro. They re-did the whole facade of my house: re-pointed brick, re-built stoop, and restored the cornice, which included fashioning from scratch some of the carved pieces, I forget what they're called.
They did a great job, the workers were professional and courteous, and the price was fair. Just me 2 cents.

I think the DOB rules are based on Shariah law or something

The idea that ipe is considered non-flammable by the DOB is a myth. When you speak with someone from the DOB, they say that it is considered flammable. Good luck with your deck.
