Why Solid Ground Chooses Composite Decking Over Wood
Composite decking offers a combination of beauty, performance, and practicality that makes it a superior choice for outdoor living spaces. Solid Ground chooses composite materials for their long-term reliability and advanced features that enhance both form and function.
- Long-Term Savings: While composite decking has a higher upfront cost than wood, it saves money over time by eliminating the need for frequent repairs, staining, or sealing. Its durability means fewer replacements, making it a smart long-term investment.
- Advanced Moisture Resistance: Composite boards are engineered with protective caps and non-porous cores, preventing mold, mildew, and water damage. This makes them ideal for humid environments, poolside decks, and areas exposed to the elements.
- Superior Structural Stability: Paired with Solid Ground’s steel framing, composite decking resists warping, sagging, and shifting over time. It maintains its shape even in extreme weather conditions.
- Family-Friendly Safety Features: Composite decking offers slip-resistant surfaces and splinter-free finishes, making it safer for children and pets. Many brands also provide heat-resistant options for added comfort during summer months.
- Environmentally Conscious Choice: Many composite products, including Eva-Last and TimberTech, are made from recycled materials, reducing waste while delivering long-lasting performance.
