Can Custom Deck Builders Make Your Deck from Any Material?

When it is about deck materials, nowadays there are a lot of different options that you can choose from- wood, plastic, composite, and even aluminum. Depending on your needs, your budget, and the appearance that you want to give to your home, your custom deck builder can advise you regarding the best material to fit your wishes. 

Let’s find out the two most popular materials used nowadays: 

Wood 

Wood materials such as redwood, cedar, and hardwood are the most common choices when someone chooses a wooden deck. Even if the wood is one of the first materials used in the past to build decks and it is still very popular, you should note that this material requires constant maintenance as it naturally fades to gray color and, depending on the type of wood, the resistance to rot or splinter can differ, so it is highly recommended to clean and re-stain every 2 years at least. Some hardwood needs to be oiled 1-2 times per year to pervert fading into gray. 

Composite 

A good alternative to wood in terms of aspect (as it looks like natural wood) and maintenance costs. Opposite to the wood, this combination of blend plastic and waste wood fibers material, is scratch and rot resistant, does not get gray over time, so it does not require painting or staining, and the maintenance is minimum: just wash the desk. Compared to wood, it is less stiff; however, if you choose a good quality manufacturer brand like Trex, this material can resist for up to 25 years.
