Get The Most Out Of Your Deck

More and more, outdoor living is no longer considered a luxury, but a way of life for homeowners across the country. Families are spending more time at home enjoying the freedom of relaxing and entertaining on their backyard deck. However, with today’s hectic lifestyles, homeowners are often pressed to find the time needed to properly maintain their decks.

Homeowners are also creating outdoor living spaces that have year-round appeal. That means paying close attention to choosing decking materials that withstand the most demanding climate conditions. But with the variety of options now available, it can be a challenge to determine which decking materials will stand the test of time and add long-term value.

Following are some considerations to keep in mind when choosing materials for making your deck a long-lasting and inviting extension of your home.

Materials
The choice of decking material is an important first factor in the overall look, quality and amount of maintenance required to keep your deck looking great year after year. While wood remains the prevalent material for decks, composite decking, made of recycled wood fiber and recycled plastic, is rapidly gaining in popularity.

Homeowners’ desire for low-maintenance materials is the primary reason for increased use of composite decking. With homeowners having less time for home upkeep, composite decking is an appealing choice as it does not require sealing and staining. Composite decking, such as Weyerhaeuser ChoiceDek decking, offers many other benefits in addition to easy maintenance. It resists insect attacks and the effects of weather and decay. Composite decking is also resistant to splintering, so it’s easy on bare feet. Homeowners get the combined benefits of an attractive, authentic appearance with low maintenance.

What’s more, composite decking is now available in more color options, including colors that have the look of tropical hardwoods. So homeowners can create bold, innovative multi-tone decks in a wide range of colors.
