We prefer to build or re-face existing decks with composite decking. Made of a mix of waste wood or cellulose fiber and plastic, composite decking lasts much longer than pressure-treated wood while requiring far less maintenance. In addition, composite won't splinter or crack, so it's safer for pets and bare feet. Perhaps best of all, composites are eco-friendly. They do not contain the toxic chemicals often found in pressure-treated lumber. Fiberon composite is made from locally-sourced recycled plastic and lumber mill scraps, preventing tons of plastic from heading to the landfill.
We work with different brands, but MoistureShield and Sylvanix are our most recommended. These products are engineered to deliver more comfort, beauty and long-lasting protection. Our showroom representatives will explain to you the different product types and show you samples of the colors and textures.
After installing a composite deck and railing system, you should expect to lightly powerwash it every couple of years. That's it. No painting, sealing, or replacing rotted boards. The only drawback to composite decking is that it does get hotter than wood when it sits in the sun. So if your deck is exposed to full sun for many hours each day, we recommend choosing a light color for the flooring.
