Deck Surface Replacement with Deckorators® Summit Decking in Bethlehem, PA
This deck surface replacement project in Bethlehem, PA focused on upgrading both the appearance and performance of an existing outdoor space using premium Deckorators® Summit decking and aluminum railing systems. The homeowner wanted a modern, durable solution that would stand up to Pennsylvania’s seasonal weather while delivering a clean, high-end look.
Project Overview
The existing deck structure was sound, making it an ideal candidate for a surface replacement rather than a full rebuild. By upgrading the decking, fascia, stair components, and railings, we were able to completely transform the space while maximizing the value of the existing framework.
The homeowner selected Deckorators® Summit decking as their upgrade, known for its enhanced traction, durability, and low-maintenance performance.
Decking & Design Details
- Deck Surface:
- The main deck surface was finished in Cliffside, a versatile color that provides a natural, modern aesthetic while complementing the home’s exterior.
- Picture Frame & Stair Treads:
- To add contrast and definition, a single-board picture frame and stair treads were installed in Khaya. This framing detail creates a polished, intentional border that elevates the overall design.
- Fascia & Stair Risers:
- Matching Cliffside fascia and stair risers were installed to create a seamless, cohesive look while protecting exposed edges from moisture and wear.
Railing System & Safety Features
For safety and style, the deck was finished with a black aluminum railing system, offering a clean, modern appearance without obstructing views.
- Railings: Black aluminum rapid rail system
- Posts: 2.5” black aluminum railing posts (36”)
- Benefits: Rust-resistant, low-maintenance, and code-compliant
The slim profile of the aluminum railing complements the decking while providing long-term durability and minimal upkeep.
Lighting & Accessories
To enhance nighttime visibility and usability, the deck was upgraded with integrated LED lighting:
- LED stair riser lights for improved safety
- LED lighting transformer for reliable, low-voltage operation
These lighting features add both function and ambiance, making the deck safer and more inviting after sunset.
