We would like to let everyone know that we are working on plans for the Northeast Deck for a Soldier® project. The National D4S committee has approved the Minnesota application and passed it onto the local members, who have met with the applicant and approved the project as well. We are now starting to request material and labor pledges for both projects. Please click here to become enlisted and then fill out the pledge form. We thank you all for your support!
We would like to invite anyone interested to join us for a Deck for a Soldier® meeting at NADRA booth #552 at DeckExpo in Nashville. This meeting will take place on Thursday, 10/26/17 at 1:30 pm. If there is a large attendance, we can move to the NADRA VIP suite. Please show your support and stop by.

Why Wood?
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.

dasso.XTR announces the launch of its new 7″ RainClad Siding System. Similar to the 6″ RainClad Siding System, the 7″ siding carries the same profile with exception that it is wider. The wider profile provides a nicer “expensive look” to the house. It also requires less fasteners per square feet, which reduces fastener cost (which are expensive).
