Composite Decks Vancouver

Vancouver Composite Decks

Composite is a material made up of a combination of synthetic materials (e.g., recycled plastics, binding agent) and small amount of wood fibers to create a wooden look. Though it can't replicate the exact wooden look, composites are still a top choice for many people given their durability. Below are the pros and cons:

Pros of Composite Decks

• Weather and Stain Resistant

Composites are stain and scratch resistant, it will also not rot, splinter, or warp like natural wood

• Low Maintenance

Composite decks don't require regular sanding, painting, or resurfacing unlike other materials. They also come with UV resistance properties to prevent fading, making it last longer for the owners

• Eco-friendly

Composites are made of 100% recycled materials, so they don't contribute to deforestation, don't require regular staining as well which releases harsh toxins into the environment

Cons of Wooden Decks

• Higher Initial Investment

One of the drawbacks of composite deck is its higher initial cost. It is not the cheapest material available, but in the long run the benefits will outweigh the cost

• Permanent Colors

One of its strength (can't fade easily) is also one of its cons. When you're bored and want to consider changing the color of your composite deck, the color can't be easily changed since composites are permanently colored to prevent fading and reduce maintenance
