RainGuard by Battlefield Services
Build the deck above. Protect the space below.
For new elevated decks and major rebuilds, RainGuard manages water above the joists so the lower area can stay drier and be planned for outdoor living. Written warranty options range from 35 to 50 years, depending on the approved system and proposal.
What to Know
This deck was built to improve the space above and protect the space below
A 10x20 deck can create a strong outdoor living platform, but this project needed more than a finished surface. The RainGuard system was included so rain would not simply pass through the deck boards onto the floor below. That changes the value of the whole build because both levels of the space become easier to use.
Lower area protection
RainGuard helps direct water away from the lower floor area instead of letting every storm drain through the deck.
Coordinated structure
Framing, drainage, stairs, and railing layout have to work together so the finished project feels intentional.
Project Fit & Execution
Why the RainGuard system matters on a raised deck
When a deck sits above another floor or usable lower area, rain protection becomes part of the project value. Without a dry-space system, water passes through the deck surface and limits what can happen below. On this build, the RainGuard system was planned with the Trex Pebble Beach surface so the upper deck and lower protected area work together. That means the estimate conversation has to cover more than square footage. Framing, slope, water movement, drainage path, railing layout, stairs, and the finished surface all need to be coordinated before the build starts.
How We Work
How a Trex Pebble Beach deck with RainGuard comes together
Review the upper and lower use
Start with the 10x20 footprint, door location, lower floor area, stairs, railing needs, and how rain should be managed.
Coordinate decking and dry protection
Plan the Trex Pebble Beach boards, framing, drainage slope, and RainGuard system before finish details are locked in.
Build for both levels
Complete the deck surface, railings, stairs, and under-deck protection so the top and lower area feel like one planned project.
Budget and Scope
Deck resurfacing and new construction are different scopes with different planning ranges.
Resurfacing can preserve a suitable existing structure, while a new deck includes the footings, posts, beams, joists, connections, and other structural work beneath the walking surface. Final pricing still depends on demolition, framing condition, stairs, railings, access, finish selections, and connected construction.
ZIP required for range
Pressure-treated resurfacing
This assumes that some or most of the existing structure is suitable for reuse. Demolition, selective framing repairs, stairs, railings, and trim can increase the scope.
ZIP required for range
Trex / composite resurfacing
Pricing depends on framing condition, selective repairs, decking line, fascia, stairs, railings, trim, and optional frame-protection work.
ZIP required for range
New pressure-treated deck
New construction includes the structural system, so footings, posts, beams, joists, ledger conditions, height, access, stairs, and railings affect the final cost.
ZIP required for range
New Trex / composite deck
Trex product line, hidden fasteners, picture framing, fascia, railings, stairs, lighting, trim, height, and structural complexity shape the final price. Premium scopes can exceed this range.
RainGuard / dry-space systems
Under-deck drainage is priced separately according to deck size, framing layout, drainage design, finish level, and how the space below the deck will be used.
These are planning ranges, not a final proposal. Not sure whether the frame can stay? Battlefield Services can evaluate accessible framing and needed repairs before pricing a full rebuild.

FAQs
Questions homeowners ask before starting a Trex deck with dry-space protection
What is included in a 10x20 Trex Pebble Beach deck estimate?
A real estimate should account for the deck footprint, height, framing, stairs, railing style, Trex Pebble Beach decking, trim details, access, demolition if needed, and whether a RainGuard or similar dry-space system is part of the scope.
Why add RainGuard under a deck?
RainGuard helps protect the area below the deck by managing water that would otherwise pass through the deck boards. It is useful when the lower floor, patio, storage, or outdoor living area needs rain protection.
Is Trex Pebble Beach a good choice for a lower-maintenance deck?
Trex Pebble Beach gives homeowners a lighter composite decking option with a cleaner upkeep story than traditional wood. The right choice still depends on the house, trim, railing selection, budget, and how the deck will be used.
