being told by several contractors that have used trex and timberline hidden fadtners that they really shouldnt be used on second story decks. i live in colorado so we get very hot sun and then bursts of very cold. Do i really need to screw in deckorators from the top?
There are many fasteners to choose from. Deckorators also has the hidden fastener system. If you want to go in the top, Deckorators also makes a fastener system with plugs to hide the screwhead. It's called the Pro Fastening Systems. Trex and Timbertech also have this fastener system. Just match the plugs to the color and style of the deck you are using within the same brand for the exact seamless match.
