Composite decking or Patio paver?!?!

When it comes to creating an outdoor living space, there are a variety of materials to choose from, including composite decking and patio pavers. Both options have their advantages and disadvantages, but in this blog, we will focus on the benefits of composite decking and why it might be the right choice for your project.
  1. Durability: One of the primary advantages of composite decking is its durability. Unlike traditional wood decking, composite decking is made from a combination of wood fibers and plastic materials, which makes it resistant to rot, insects, and other outdoor elements. Additionally, composite decking won't splinter or crack over time, which makes it a safer and more comfortable option for bare feet.
  2. Low Maintenance: Composite decking requires minimal maintenance compared to other decking materials, like wood or stone. Composite decking is resistant to staining and fading, which means you won't have to worry about sanding, sealing, or staining your deck every year. Additionally, composite decking can be cleaned easily with soap and water, which makes it a low-maintenance option for busy homeowners.
  3. Aesthetics: Composite decking comes in a variety of colors and finishes, which means you can find a style that matches your aesthetic preferences. Additionally, composite decking can be designed to mimic the look and texture of traditional wood decking without the maintenance requirements. This makes it a popular option for homeowners who want the look of wood decking without the upkeep.
  4. Eco-Friendly: Composite decking is made from recycled materials, which makes it a more eco-friendly option than traditional wood decking. Additionally, because composite decking lasts longer than wood decking, it reduces the need for replacement materials and contributes to a more sustainable building practice.
  5. Safety: Composite decking is slip-resistant, which makes it a safer option for outdoor living spaces. Unlike traditional wood decking, composite decking won't become slick when wet, which reduces the risk of slips and falls.
In conclusion, composite decking is a durable, low-maintenance, aesthetically pleasing, eco-friendly, and safe option for outdoor living spaces. While patio pavers have their own set of advantages, composite decking offers a variety of benefits that make it an excellent choice for homeowners looking to create a beautiful and functional outdoor space.

    With a background in fitness, I am 100% NOT a deck nerd and likely have no business writing any sort of decking related blog. However, after five years as the "behind-the-scenes responder" to emails, texts, DM's & PM's requesting Martins' decking expertise and then figuring out how to unravel his technical response to reply to queries in layman/woman terms, I figured I'd add a blog to the website to, hopefully, save visitors hours of online research and help with their decking/pergola/gazebo decisions.
