Why you’ll want composite decking for your next project:

Wanting to build a new deck or porch? Choosing the right materials is key to getting the most from your outdoor living space. That’s why composite decking is becoming a top choice for homeowners across the region.

1. Built to Handle Mountain Weather

Western North Carolina sees it all: hot, humid summers, afternoon thunderstorms, and occasional snow in winter. Composite decking is engineered to withstand it all. Unlike traditional wood, it won’t crack, warp, or splinter after a few seasons of temperature swings and moisture.

2. Low Maintenance, High Reward

Forget the annual cycle of staining, sealing, and sanding. Composite decking keeps its color and finish with minimal upkeep. A simple wash is usually all it takes to keep your deck looking sharp, so you can spend more time relaxing and less time maintaining.

3. Naturally Resistant to Mold and Mildew

The mountain air may be fresh, but the humidity can still lead to mold and mildew buildup; especially in shady, forested areas. Composite decking resists moisture better than wood, making it ideal for our damp and tree-covered terrain.

4. Safe and Comfortable Underfoot

Composite materials stay cooler than some wood types and won’t splinter, making them great for bare feet, kids, and pets. Many options also feature slip-resistant textures; a major plus during summer rain storms or snowy winters.

5. A Look That Lasts

Today’s composite decking mimics the natural beauty of wood with rich grain patterns and color options, but without fading or greying over time. Whether you want a rustic mountain look or a modern, clean finish, there’s a composite style to match your vision.
