Hi Bill--

They are laminated solid western red cedar. We use a marine adhesive that is entirely waterproof, so these are old school boat building techniques. There are a couple of different methods, stacked and blocked and it really depends on what we need to achieve which one is more practical. We are starting to do laminations here in the shop for private clients these days.

How did you curve the cedar? The curved steps look amazing!

Thanks for the kindness-- The decking is pre-finished Western Red Cedar. These days we are sourcing Kiln Dried Red Cedar, which doesn't have to be air dried before applying finish. If the stain is applied properly, it will last many years before needing to be redone. Drop by our site to learn more. (Articles, Exterior Stain).

Absolutely beautiful deck! Great design too, I love the curves, railing treatment and like the incorporated stone patio/landing. What material was used for the decking?

Rick-- Coming from you that means even more... Yeah, I wish it was my deck too!
