Composite Decking – the Right Choice for Homes in Peterborough

If you’re looking for an incredibly low maintenance, long-lasting, and waterproof material for your next deck or dock, you should consider using composite decking. With natural wood-grain textures, a variety of colour options, and a lifetime warranty, today’s composite decking materials outclass the plastic-like PVC decks of the past.

As your local source for deck plans and building materials, our staff have put together the following reasons why you should consider composite decking for your next project:

 

Decking that’s designed to last a lifetime.

The innovative manufacturing process of MoistureShield composite decking produces deck boards that are completely moisture resistant. Recycled plastic surrounds and bonds to wood fibers, making the boards 100% resistant to mold, mildew, and stains. With a straight-forward industry leading warranty against rot, decay, and termites, your deck might even outlast you!

Every single deck board is consistent and perfect.

There’s no need to waste time sorting through deck boards looking for splits, twists, cracks, or defects. Every single one of our MoistureShield composite decking boards are designed to meet the highest standards in consistency and quality. And as a moisture-resistant product, you won’t have to worry about warping problems after your deck is built.

Create the most relaxing and comfortable outdoor living space.

MoistureShield decking reduces heat absorption by up to 35% compared with other capped PVC or composite deck boards. Combined that with hidden fasteners, no chance of splinters, and a non-slip realistic wood-grain finish, and your feet will thank you for choosing composite over traditional lumber. With a variety of natural colour palettes, composite decking is the perfect building material for creating an inviting and relaxing dock!

It pays for itself with low maintenance costs and long-lasting durability.

While annual staining and power washing is needed for pressure-treated lumber, you can simply set it and forget it with composite decking. When you consider the time and money needed each year to prevent wooden decks from deteriorating, it’s worth investing in the long-lasting performance of composite decking. Composite decking won’t scratch or rot, and is designed to weather slightly to natural shades when exposed to UV rays over time.

With pressure-treated lumber prices increasing year over year, composite decking has quickly become one of the most popular and ideal building materials in our area. While most builders and DIYers see composite materials as being on the expensive side, new innovations have increased the amount of options that work perfect for a wide-range of budgets and styles.
