Typical warranties only cover replacing the damaged wood, leaving you holding the bill for the rest of the repair.
The Cox Premium Warranty plan protects you against those costs; labor and fasteners, which can often be much more than the wood itself.

Wood products are everywhere. And it’s no wonder. Wood is, after all, nature’s sustainable building block that comes from an abundant natural resource easily and quickly replenished. It has excellent workability in all aspects of construction and, when preserved and used properly, can be designed to create outdoor living spaces that bring the inside out.

With the desire for outdoor living continuing to lead trends for both new and remodeled homes, there’s no better time to be selling decking products. But along with overall demand, what’s also keeping deck fastener manufacturers on their toes is the extensive variety of materials, from exotic woods to composites. Thankfully, there’s a screw or fastener for nearly every material, application, and climate — and therefore no excuse to not have beautiful decks that stand the test of time.

For decades, “outdoor decorating” meant arranging a few nice chairs and a table near a barbecue grill, then adding an umbrella to block the summer sun. But as patios and decks have morphed into “outdoor living rooms,” the bar has risen for outdoor style and comfort.
“HGTV Design Star” judge Vern Yip says he knew we’d reached a new level of outdoor decorating this year when he discovered a fully upholstered, tufted, Chesterfield-style sofa designed for outdoor use.

One of the most desirable home amenities is a spacious outdoor living space. If you’ve nabbed a pad with a blooming backyard you’ve probably spent your fair share of weekend afternoons getting your garden in tiptop shape. It makes sense that most homeowners put great thought into their plant selection and tend to spend less time on the “hardscape” — the nonplant parts of the landscape.
