There was a time when wood decks were unchallenged. There just wasn’t an alternative that made sense and, as a result, most decks you saw on the market were made of wood. These days, though, there are plenty of options on the market when it comes to what materials you may want to use. One such option is composite decking. Composite decks are designed with durability and maintenance in mind, leaving you without all of the typical hassles that are associated with using wood as a decking material. 

Durability

Composite decks are made with durability as high-priority as it can be. The material is able to resist fading, staining, scratching, and even mold. You also don’t have to worry about things like rotting or warping. It’s also a big deal for anyone who has ever had a negative experience with insects and a wood deck, thanks to the fact that composite decking is insect-proof. Lastly, it’s also splinter-free, which can make it a safer option for anyone who has children or kids around their deck that could get injured if you were to use typical wood.          

Maintenance

No need to worry about sanding, painting, or staining when it comes to using a composite material for your deck! Composite decks just require regular cleaning with soap and water once you realize things are starting to get a bit grimy, which is fairly easy as far as deck maintenance goes. That said, composite decks typically come with stain and fade warranties, so even if there were a problem, you would be certain to get your deck back up in perfect condition as quickly as possible.

Aesthetics

Composite decks are known for their high-quality wood grain patterns that can look just as good as the real deal. With composite, however, you can get saturated colors and all the bells and whistles that make for a natural look. There is a huge range of color options as well, from deep earthy tones to more intense reds, as well as more subdued grey options if you’re not trying to make a statement. Whatever you’re looking for, there’s a chance that composite decking is the right option for you.
