MCM Outdoor Living is leading a backyard revolution across Texas as more homeowners opt for low-maintenance, high-performance materials. The Frisco-based contractor reports that composite deck installation now accounts for roughly 60% of its builds, echoing a statewide trend fueled by a 69.2% increase in search interest for “composite deck installation” over the past year.

“Five years ago, composite decks were a rarity,” says Cody McKinley, founder of MCM Outdoor Living. “Now they’re the first thing people ask about when considering custom deck installation. It’s about getting more life out of your investment.”

Texas homeowners know the wear and tear wood decks endure, fading, warping, and mold are all too common. Composite decking addresses these problems head-on with materials that resist heat, moisture, and UV damage. Clients now request hybrid builds using composite surfaces, wood framing, and metal railings. Many are asking for textured, wood-like finishes that retain their appearance for years without the need for sanding or staining. Aluminum and powder-coated steel railings are also becoming standard, offering sleek aesthetics and low upkeep.

“What we’re seeing is a shift toward decks that are meant to be lived on, not worked on,” McKinley explains. “Families want something they can use year-round without the burden of upkeep.”

Though custom deck installation often carries a higher upfront cost than traditional wood options, McKinley emphasizes its financial advantages over time. Without the need for sealing, staining, or routine structural repairs, long-term costs are significantly reduced. The investment pays off in convenience and reliability. For homeowners, this means fewer headaches and more time spent actually enjoying their outdoor space. McKinley notes that it’s an upfront decision that simplifies everything later, eliminating peeling stains, splinters, and springtime repairs in favor of a deck that consistently performs.

As one of the region’s top outdoor living specialists, MCM Outdoor Living is not just observing this trend, it’s helping shape it. By offering custom solutions, the company is setting the bar for Texas decks. McKinley adds that with each project, the company helps homeowners think long-term and design spaces that reflect how they live and relax outdoors.
