Composite decking is a low maintenance alternative to wooden decks. These types of decks have a much longer lifespan than the usual wood decks; composite material is made from recycled wood fibers and recycled plastic. Composite decking is considered one of the most durable types of decks available today.

Unlike wooden decks, with composite decks you won’t have to stain, sand, seal, or do board replacement. Another advantage to composite decking is that you won’t have to worry about mold growing and insects gnawing composite like wood decks. Since there is no real wood with composite decking, you won’t have to worry about getting splinters either!

There is also minimal fading to composite decks and the only care that would really need to be done with a composite deck is a quick wash with soap and water.

Trex is an eco-friendly manufacturer that provides durable and easy maintenance composite material. Azek is another company that offers capped wood composite that is also easy to maintain and mold resistance. Most manufacturers offer either a 25-year or lifetime warranty on their composite products.
