We have it as decking. Installed in 2013. ZERO maintenance since installation. Sure it gets hot - we just make sure we aren't running around on it barefoot.
I'd suggest a pergola anyways, with some hops growing up over it, 'cause that shit's cool.
You haven't been to our land of scorched earth... It's barren back there. I can't keep anything alive, despite trying. The native, low water garden I planted 2 weekends ago is already taking off. That's how fucking inhospitable it is - the desert/high plains plants are taking off like weeds.
Hey wanna do this dumb race with me on Sunday? I'll let you win: https://www.trisignup.com/Race/MA/DoverSherborn/DoverSherbornBoostersTriathlon
I live in that land of scorched earth. We get full afternoon sun on our deck. I, too, have considered adding a pergola to make it more afternoon habitable.
I'd still recommend the fake decking if you have zero interest in deck maintenance, though. Pick a lighter color.
Afternoon? Hahaha. Our sun starts at 10am and doesn't stop until sundown. The panels on the back and south side of the house are defined as 0% impeded. I've been to your hood. You have trees. We just have death of anything not native. And even that's questionable.I live in that land of scorched earth. We get full afternoon sun on our deck.

But yes, pergola is on the list of things. But way down there. Because they're expensive.
We put up a motorized awning. It has been surprisingly useful. Is your deck on the south side of the house?
South-Southwest. You know, the good side.We put up a motorized awning. It has been surprisingly useful. Is your deck on the south side of the house?
This is the way.
My $35k from when me moved in tell me otherwise. I might remount the decking using the hidden clips at some point) vs screws, as they keep popping out due to heat expansion. But this fucker will be here when the grandkids show up.Stoney needs a new deck
Neighbors are putting in mahogany decking for this reason. Well, that and apparently it's cheaper than Trex.I live in that land of scorched earth. We get full afternoon sun on our deck. I, too, have considered adding a pergola to make it more afternoon habitable.

Fuck contractors in general.

I've got a half marathon but good luck in your race!! Looks like a cool event. The bike looks like a rolly course. The run looks tough. You got this. Looking good. Almost there.
It does melt off real fast.Yeesh.
I bet it's really nice fall/winter/spring, though, innit?
What would happen if you just stopped showing up? Would they notice? Would you still get a check every two weeks?
WFH. I think my weekly effort is worth about 4-5hrs of my startup-hours in the past.
Probably already a thread in PAWN, but protests in Iran are getting wild! Sounds like more than a couple people have had enough of the regime's shit.

And to think it's gotten so much better over the years too!
If I ever decide to work for someone else again, I'll just tell them up front that i suffer from very infrequent tourettes.
list "swears like a sailor" under skills in your resume/CV. fight the system.
That was a given at Institutional level. I just told a buddy who still works at BBG and he just started laughing his ass off.
I used to be fairly skillful at turning it on or off according to audience, not sure that I can really still do that.
I'm pretty good with clients. PD being the exception, because they're generally worse than me. Internally it's hard, as I tend to be more relaxed.
