Trex Deck Builder in Tuxedo Park, NY
Tuxedo Park is steep, rocky, wooded land with lake and mountain views and houses built to a high standard. A deck here has to handle the terrain and suit the architecture. We design Trex decks for Tuxedo Park that fit the house and are engineered for the ground they stand on.
Building on steep, rocky ground
Homes are tucked into hillsides, rock is close to the surface and flat ground is rare. A deck here often has to span a drop, which means tall posts, careful framing and a foundation designed for rock as well as soil. Tall decks on steep lots are engineered for lateral load, not just weight straight down, and for the applicable wind and snow loads.
Designing to suit the house
We design the deck to suit the architecture of your home, with railing and detailing that read as part of the house. Trex Signature railing.
Access and logistics
Hillside lots and village roads make staging materials and equipment part of the plan, so we work that into the schedule from the start.
Choosing the right Trex
We select decking for the site, the sun exposure, the layout and the finish you want. Pinnacle Decking installs Trex Signature, Trex Transcend Lineage, Trex Select and Trex PVC (Trex Refuge). The Trex Select colors we install are Malted Barley, Millstone and Whiskey Barrel. Compare physical samples in the light where the deck will sit; the Trex lines we install are laid out on one page. All decking can become hot in direct sun, and color and weather affect surface temperature. We talk through those tradeoffs during design.
Foundations designed for your property
Foundation conditions vary from property to property. Soil, drainage, slope, rock, frost requirements and the loads of the deck all inform the design. We specify engineered helical pile foundations where the site and design support their use. Rock or unexpected ground conditions go back to the engineer to confirm the right solution.

Review and permits in Tuxedo Park
Most deck projects require a building permit and sealed structural drawings, and the village may require design review of exterior work. Lakefront and steep-slope conditions can add requirements. We confirm what applies to your property, prepare what the review needs, and handle the submission. Engineering and permits are part of the build, never a separate line item.

Frequently asked
Can you build on a steep, rocky lot in Tuxedo Park?
Yes. The structure is engineered for the height and the lateral load, and the foundation follows the engineered plan. Rock goes back to the engineer to confirm the right solution.
Do you handle design review?
We design the deck to suit your home and prepare what the village review process requires for your property. That work is part of the build.
Which Trex line works on an exposed site?
It depends on the deck. We install Trex Signature, Trex Transcend Lineage, Trex Select and Trex PVC (Trex Refuge), and we choose with you from physical samples based on sun exposure, layout and how you use the deck. All decking can become hot in direct sun.
Are engineering and permits included?
Yes. Engineering and permits are part of the build, never a separate line item. We confirm what your property requires before construction starts.
