Why Are Composite Decks Gaining Popularity?
Learn more about composite decks and the benefits they can offer your home.
Composite decking materials have evolved greatly over time. Choosing the ideal decking can be very difficult with a plethora of brands, styles, and material options available for selection. Modern composite decking materials claim to surpass natural wood’s quality, longevity, and durability. But does it live up to its claims?
First-generation composite decking used to be made up of plastics and wood fibers without proper sealing. This made it susceptible to easy fading and erosion. After that came three-sided capping composite decking materials, which guaranteed proper shielding against erosion and moisture. Even though the boards got more durable, this technique made the boards look unrealistic. The last and most final decking solution to come from Timbertech was TimberTech® AZEK® capped polymer decking, which features zero wood from core to cap.
Continual scientific material innovations have enabled the company to craft a composite material that can surpass the qualities of other brands and even wood itself. This material helps save your decking from the effects of rain and sunshine.
How Do I Choose the Best Composite Decking for My Home?
The easiest way to discern which composite decking would work best for you is to look at the factors you would prioritize for your decking.
- Performance
Depending on your area’s weather conditions and the usage you require, you can opt for different TimberTech decking options. TimberTech offers highly durable composite decking materials that are resistant to moisture and composed of highly enhanced polymers. This ensures that your decking looks beautiful with rich colors, and you don’t have to pay for regular maintenance or repair services.
- Maintenance
Decks are a place to enjoy with your friends and family rather than a place you must spend ages to make it look decent. Low maintenance decking materials can ensure that you can clean your deck with just a few simple steps. There are no requirements for sanding or staining your composite deck. The most cleaning your deck will ever require is a good scrub and a thorough wash with your garden hose.
- Costs
Most people tend to overlook the long-term cost-effectiveness of composite decking materials. The upfront cost is not the only price you should consider when selecting a good decking material for your home. Long-term costs incurred by wooden decking materials for staining, repairs, and maintenance can add up to a lot over time. Composite decking is far more low-maintenance and cost-effective in the long run.
- Colors
Composite decking also offers a wide range of customizability. No matter what kind of grain, color, or size of decking you require, TimberTech composite decking is available in various finishes and qualities. TimberTech offers different color options inspired by real natural wood coloring and patterns. The most amazing benefit of composite decking colors is that they do not fade or look bad over time. Composite decking maintains its fantastic hues and natural coloring for many years to come.
