What Makes Composite decks Unique?

Composite decks stand apart due to their construction mainly from recycled materials, overlaid with a PVC cap sheet. This cap sheet gives the boards a realistic wood grain finish and is available in various colors, allowing homeowners to tailor their outdoor spaces to their unique styles. But perhaps most compelling is the promise of “zero maintenance,” a term frequently associated with these decks. Unlike wood, composite materials resist deterioration from sunlight and water, thanks to advanced manufacturing processes that ensure long-lasting beauty and functionality. The manufacturer’s color and fading warranty further guarantees that these decks retain their vibrance and allure throughout their lifespan.

  • Long-lasting Durability: Composite decks boast an impressive 25-year warranty, ensuring longevity that wood decks simply cannot match. Where wood might crack, warp, or fade under harsh weather conditions, composite maintains its form and color, providing an attractive outdoor environment year after year.

  • Low Maintenance: The maintenance demands of composite decks are minimal. To rid surfaces of dirt and grime from everyday use or after a social gathering, a simple wash with a hose suffices. There’s no need for staining, sealing, or power washing, which are often necessary with wood decks. This low-maintenance appeal is a significant factor driving the popularity of composite decks among homeowners, who appreciate the ease and convenience they offer.

  • Environmental Considerations: As they incorporate recycled materials, composite decks align with the increased consumer interest in environmentally friendly products. This sustainability edge is crucial for modern homeowners who prioritize eco-conscious living.

  • Cost Considerations: While the initial investment for composite decking is higher—around three times the cost of wood per board—this investment pays off in the long run. Wood decks require regular maintenance and eventual replacement, potentially within ten years due to decay and damage. Composite decks eliminate these additional costs, often proving more economical over their lifetime.

  • Stable and Secure Flooring: Safety is another aspect where composite decks have the upper hand. These decks are fastened with clips, ensuring stability regardless of the weather. Unlike wood, which contracts and expands causing boards to come loose, composite remains securely in place, maintaining a safe and even surface.

  • Temperature Tolerance: A common concern about composite materials is their heat retention. While they are made of materials that can heat up, technological advances have addressed this issue. With the inclusion of cooler color options and technological enhancements to reduce heat, composite decks do not become excessively hot, making them safe and comfortable for children and pets even under direct sunlight.
