Are you keen for an upgrade? Let’s jump right in!

The Benefits of Composite Decking

Composite decking offers a range of benefits that make it an exceptional choice for any outdoor space. With minimal maintenance required, resistance to stains and fading, unmatched durability and longevity, and eco-friendly qualities, composite decking is the perfect solution for those seeking a cost-effective alternative to timber decking.

Minimal Maintenance

We love to save time. That’s why we chose composite decking. It is easy to clean and needs very little care. No more painting, staining or oiling your deck every year! Just a simple wash now and then keeps it looking new.

This gives you more time to relax on your deck instead of working on it. Our decks are also free of splinters – safe for bare feet and pets!

Resistant to Stains and Fading

Composite decking has extraordinary power. It does not get stained or fade quickly. This is because of the plastic cap on it. The plastic keeps the colour fresh for long, even when left out in harsh sun, rain or snow.

Not having stains makes cleaning easy, too. Use soapy water to wash off dirt and grime from your deck boards. We also ensure that all our composite timber decking products resist staining and fading to give you years of beauty.

Unmatched Durability and Longevity

Perth decking boards are built to last. We use recycled bamboo fibres in our boards, making them super tough. They stay strong even in harsh weather, unlike traditional timber decking.

Another plus—you won’t find any splinters in your feet! Our decking resists fading, too. So, it will look great long after you install it. This combination of strength and lasting beauty makes composite decking ideal for many homes and outdoor spaces.

Eco-Friendly Solution

We make our wood plastic composite deck by blending used bamboo fibres and HDPE plastic. We give a new life to these tossed-out materials. Our way helps lessen plastic waste on this earth. We save trees because we do not use wood to make our decking boards.

You can walk with pride on your eco-friendly deck, knowing you chose an option that is kind to your feet and our world!

Actual Cost of Timber vs Composite Decking

One of the main concerns of consumers when choosing decking materials is the cost. But when comparing timber and composite decking, looking at more than just the initial purchase price is essential. We also need to consider the maintenance costs and the material’s longevity.

	Timber Decking	Composite Decking
Initial Cost	Usually cheaper to purchase initially.	It may be more expensive upfront due to the cost of recycled materials.
Maintenance Costs	Regular painting, staining, or oiling is required to add to the overall cost.	Minimal maintenance is needed, making it more cost-effective in the long run.
Longevity	It depends on the quality of the timber and maintenance, but it may wear down and require replacement sooner.	It is known for its unmatched durability and resistance to stains, fading, and splinters, increasing lifespan.
Eco-Friendly	Production of timber decking can have a significant environmental impact.	It uses recycled materials like bamboo fibres and HDPE plastic, making it a sustainable alternative.

It’s clear that while the initial cost of composite decking may be higher, its benefits in terms of minimal maintenance, longer lifespan, and eco-friendliness make it a cost-effective solution in the long run.
