Traditional wood has time and time again been the material of choice for homeowners. People love the aesthetic and smell real wood provides. The upfront cost is also the less expensive option compared to composite decking. However, composite wood material has seen a drastic improvement over the years. Technology has improved production quality and has made the composite material look nearly identical to wood. They are extremely durable and unlike wood, you don’t have to worry about rotting, mold, or insects. This makes it the perfect material for homeowners looking for low-maintenance options.
Wood material, on the other hand, has problems such as splinters, warping, and cracking due to moisture and general wear and tear from the outdoors. If the deck isn’t well maintained with stains, sealers, or paint, the wood will deteriorate over time. It may be a great low-cost alternative from the start, but be aware that over the years, you will have to maintain the wood deck yearly to increase its lifespan. As you plan your project, you may need see that the material negatives outweigh the pros of its inexpensive upfront cost.
Composite decking’s pro list scale well above the traditional wood deck. It features stain, insect, rot, warp, splintering, stain, and fade/UV resistance, and its average lifespan is up to 50 years. The main disadvantage to composite decking is the upfront cost. Compared to natural wood’s $15-$25 per square foot, composite material costs between $30-45.
