Vancouver Wooden Decks

Wood is the original and traditional material used for decks; it still stays popular until today even though it's facing strong competition from other materials such as composite and vinyl.
 
Hardwood floors also have a natural warmth and feel, and some types of woods can be very cost effective decking materials. If you're planning to build wooden decks, consider the pros and cons below.

Pros of Wooden Decks

• Authentic and Natural

Wooden decks have that mother nature allure that just can't be replicated by composite and vinyl. Though composite can look like wood, lower quality versions have that artificial plastic look to it

• Keeps Cool

Even during the hottest days, wood decks stay relatively comfortable and cool, while synthetic materials can become uncomfortably hot

• Cost Effective

Some types of wood can be cheaper than its composite counterpart, let us know what type you want and let's chat further!

Cons of Wooden Decks

• High Maintenance

All wooden decks require periodic maintenance to prevent rot, fading, and discoloration. Compared to composite, wood naturally demands far greater attention and care from homeowners, including staining every years to maintain its appearance

• Impacted by Weather

Weathering can cause discoloration, warping, and cracking, all of which increases the maintenance cost of wooden decks
