4 Reasons Why Savvy Homeowners Build With Composite Decking Materials


Top 4 Reasons Savvy Homeowners Choose Composite Decking Materials Select composite decking living areas make a wonderful addition to your home. It increases the value such that typically you can get back 80% or more of your original investment in added home value. Besides that decks just give you an extra living space outdoors that is a great place to relax with friends and family.

I can remember a lot good times I will cherish spending time with my family on my aunt's deck in the country. They lived close to my grandfather who had a small lake in his backyard. We would fish in the afternoon and always catch a lot of catfish. Those were fun times. It would not have been the same on the inside or in the grass.

Decking made from composite materials is a blend of recycled plastics from things such as milk jugs and shampoo bottles and wood flour ground up from old doors and other discarded wood. You many want to know if a plastic decking materials is better than a traditional wooden deck.

The following are benefits of a composite deck.

1. Extremely environmentally friendly - Not only are these decks made out of old recycled milk jugs and other plastic bottles, they also prevent trees from being harvested. Since they do not require staining or painting they completely eliminate the need for all the energy consumed in the manufacture and transportation of paints and stains. The actual materials and the process used to manufacture the materials does not use any toxic substances or chemicals.

2. Increased longevity - Decks can be a very beautiful. These decks maintain their beauty for longer without much less maintenance. Fiberon is scratch and fade resistant and has the industries first 20 year warranty.

3. Color retention - This decking does not staining, painting or any chemicals. Once more, certain brands are fade resistant to UV rays.

4. Timber and wood decks normally require a lot more maintenance. A well know home advice column wrote about how you should inspect the deck, make repairs which included saying if rot is less than 1/2 of an inch deep the entire board would not need replacing, ensure against future rot, clean discoloration which included instructions for an acid-wash, and finally to seal and finish the deck. The last step involved sprinkling the deck with water to ensure the water beaded up instead of soaking into the wood. If water does soak into the wood then the deck has to be sealed a second time. A composite plastic deck only needs to be washed with a little soap and water 2 or 3 times a year to prevent mold buildup. Spill something and it will wipe right off as cleanly as cleaning glass.

Composite material decks do cost more than wood decks, but in the long run you may actually save money. Quality composite decking such as the one Fibeon manufactures last longer. You also save extensive labor and supply costs involved in the upkeep of wooden decks.

The final thing I can say about high grade composite decking is actually minor but very important. Since they do not splinter they are actually safer than wooden decks. You can safely trust your child to climb on a composite deck.
