Composite decking has become a highly sought-after choice for homeowners who want to build a deck. Its durability, longevity, and sustainability have gained popularity as an alternative to wood decking. If you’re considering adding a deck to your home, here are some benefits of using composite decking materials.
Durability and Longevity
Composite decks are highly durable, making them an ideal choice for homeowners who want a deck that can withstand the test of time. Unlike wooden decks prone to rotting, splitting, and cracking, composite decks are resistant to weather, moisture, scratching, and mold. This is due to their construction from high-quality materials, which strengthen and resist constant wear and tear. Properly maintained composite decks can last more than 20 years, longer than traditional wooden decks that last up to 15 years. This makes composite decks perfect for homes with families, pets, heavy traffic, and furniture.
Variety
If you’re fond of the classic look of wood decking but desire a more long-lasting option, composite decking provides an array of designs with wood grain patterns and genuine allure. Composite decks are available in multiple colors and finishes that will perfectly match the exterior of your house’s architecture, accompanied by a wide range of deck accessories like railings and gates. With composite decking, the appearance of your deck can be customized to endless possibilities.
Low-Maintenance
Maintaining composite decking is straightforward. Unlike other materials, it doesn’t require frequent cleaning, painting, staining, or sanding. Simply washing it with soap and water using a hose is enough to keep your composite deck in great shape.
Sustainability
There has been a rise in sustainable materials and building techniques. Composite decking offers the aesthetic benefits of wood without harming trees.
No Splinters
Composite decking offers a comfortable and safe outdoor experience where you can unwind and relax without the fear of getting splinters on your bare feet. It is an excellent alternative to wood decking, especially if you have kids or pets around.
