Deck Materials
The right deck material ensures it withstands a humid and hot climate while matching the look you want and budget. We specialize in wood and composite decking, each offering distinct advantages.
Wood Decking
Wood decking, typically pressure-treated pine or cedar, brings a classic, natural look to your home. It’s versatile, allowing staining or painting to match your style, but requires regular maintenance to prevent weathering in a humid climate. Wood is ideal for homeowners seeking affordability and timeless appeal.
- Affordable option with a warm, natural aesthetic.
- Customizable with stains or paints for unique designs.
- Locally sourced options support sustainability.
- Perfect for traditional or rustic home styles.
Composite Decking
Composite decking, made from recycled wood fibers and plastics, offers a modern, low-maintenance alternative. It resists rot, insects, and fading, making it perfect for tough climates. Available in various colors and textures, it mimics wood’s look without the upkeep. Popular composite brands we use are Trex, Timbertech, Fiberon, Deckorators, and MoistureShield.
- Low-maintenance, no staining or sealing needed.
- Highly durable against humidity, rot, and insects.
- Wide range of colors and wood-like textures.
- Eco-friendly with recycled materials.
