Top 10 Benefits of Composite Decking
1: Low Maintenance
Spend less time maintaining your deck and more time relaxing and entertaining on it!
Maintaining your composite decking is simple. Just clean it with soap and water, or a high pressure cleaner, and your deck will be as good as new.
2: Composite Decking Lasts Longer
Composite decking is extremely durable. It’s high density nature offers amazing resistance to impact and general wear. Built to survive the harshest of conditions, composite decking boards won’t warp or bend. They also come with long warranties that range from 10 to 30 years!
3: Composite Decking Offers Superior Weather Resistance
Melbourne serves up some pretty challenging weather conditions that your new deck is going to be exposed to. Extremes with both heat and rain can dramatically reduce the lifespan of natural timber decking.
Composite decks are suitable for temperatures ranging from-40°C to 60°C. They offer high UV resistance to maintain colour stability. So if you’re in Melbourne and considering composite decking for your project, you can rest assured that your new deck will look amazing for decades to come!
4: Composite Decks Look & Feel Like Natural Wood
In recent years we have seen an ever-growing range of composite decking choices. Now you can build a solid, low maintenance deck that looks just like natural timber, is perfectly in-keeping with the style of your home, but without any of the maintenance headaches!
5: Barefoot Friendly
Anti-clip and anti-cracking – high quality composite decking feels amazing underfoot. It’s soft, like a new pair of shoes, and free of nasty splinters!
6: Environmentally Sustainable
There’s been a great deal of controversy about the use of Merbau and other hard woods in building decks. On one hand, we love the look and feel of natural timber decking boards. But sustainability is becoming a greater concern for many of us.
In contrast, most composite decking boards are made primarily of recycled and waste materials. Like plastic, sawdust and reclaimed timber. Therefore, composite decking is a fantastic choice for the environmentally conscious.
7: Superior Stain Resistance
Unlike natural timber, composite decking is not porous and offers a high degree of stain, mould and mildew resistance. So with composite decking you won’t have to worry about red wine getting spilled on your lovely deck at your next BBQ!
8: Composite Decking Doesn’t Bleed
In choosing composite decking, you don’t need to be concerned about the boards bleeding onto other surfaces. Bleeding of timber decking boards is a natural process where the tannin’s leech from the timber. This bleeding can stain surrounding materials. Because composite decking doesn’t bleed, it’s an ideal choice if your new deck is close to rendered buildings, or lightly coloured pavers, for example.
9: Termite Resistance
With a high resistance to moisture and made from recycled materials, including plastic, composite decks offer greater protection from termites and other pests than natural timber.
10: Fast Installation
The team at Leisure Decking absolutely love working with wood. But it can take considerably longer to build decks from natural products. There is always going to be variations in natural timber. Consequently, it can be more time consuming to work with. In contrast – factory made and quality controlled composite decking is substantially faster to install. So we can have your composite deck built and ready to enjoy in a fraction of the time!
