Are you in the process of building a new deck or renovating an old one? You may be deciding if you should go with natural wood decking or composite decking. Even though composite decking can be more expensive, here are a few benefits of composite decking.
The first benefit is that composite decking can last up to thirty years if not more. Natural wood does not last nearly as long. Also, you will never need to sand, paint, or stain your composite decking as long as it lasts. So composite decking is almost maintenance-free, besides washing it semi-annually. Another benefit is that most composite decking is stain-resistant and it holds up in harsh weather. Natural wood is not stain-resistant and it does not hold up well in harsh weather. Most composite decking is also UV resistant, so it will not lighten up or fade as much as natural wood.
A deck with composite decking can be just as beautiful as a natural wood deck and there are also many colors to choose from. Not to mention you may want to choose composite decking for the fact that it is almost maintenance-free. So these are just a few benefits you may want to consider when deciding between natural wood and composite decking.
