If you are renovating your deck or building a new one, you may want to consider composite decking instead of natural wood decking. Some people prefer the look of natural wood decking, but composite decking can be beautiful and many color options are available. Here are a few other reasons you may want to consider composite decking.
Another reason to choose composite decking is that besides washing it semi-annually, composite decking is almost maintenance-free. For the entire composite decking life, you will never need to sand, stain, or paint. Also, composite decking can last about thirty years, if not longer. Natural wood decking requires maintenance and it will not last nearly as long. Another reason is that composite decking is stain-resistant and UV resistant. This means that the composite decking will not fade or lighten up as much as natural wood decking. Natural wood decking is also not stain-resistant. Composite decking also stands up better to harsh weather than natural wood.
These are just a few reasons why you may want to consider composite decking for your deck. Even though composite decking can be more expensive, it may be worth it in the long run.
