You can get the book in the big box, but not the decking!

We're pleased to see CorrectDeck CX prominently featured on the cover of Steve Cory's new book 'Deck Designs'! (The lower picture on the cover is CorrectDeck CX in cedar). Starting on page 88, several decks built by Clemens Jellema of Fine Decks, Inc (primarily working in the Baltimore/Annapolis area) are featured, and three of them are built with CorrectDeck CX!

You can find this book in almost any big box store, but you can't find CorrectDeck CX in the big box store! Check out our dealer locator to find a local pro retailer.

Got my LEEP AP!

Whew! I was nervous. It's a two hour test and right down to the wire I was sweating it. During the test, you can mark questions that you're not sure of and go back to them (design flow rate for a water closet, anyone? Percent of site that must be recovered using native and adapted plants in order to obtain SSc5.2 Protect and Restore Habitat?). I was still in that process when I ran out of time. A little icon comes up on the screen that says YOU ARE OUT OF TIME. But then it just sits there and waits for you to push OK. You can take as much time as you like to sit there, out of time...
But I ended up crushing it, with 191 out of 200 points (about 90% right, it's graded on a curve). Still thinking there were a couple more I should have gotten but it's pass/fail and nobody cares what your score was...
