Wood was the traditional choice for decking in the past. So, you may be surprised to hear that it’s not the best choice for your Gladstone, Michigan home today.
Though wood looks appealing, it can be a hassle to take care of, and is susceptible to damage from pests and inclement weather. Thankfully, modern homeowners now have two other options for decking materials:
Living in Gladstone, you know that outdoor pests are all over the place! Bees in particular can cause a huge problem during the warmer months, burrowing into your deck and building nests. There’s no quicker way to ruin the mood at a backyard barbecue than by stumbling upon a wasp nest. Thankfully, pests and bugs can’t easily burrow into composite and vinyl deck boards as they can with wood deck boards.
As a Gladstone, Michigan homeowner, you’re also used to rough weather conditions, too. Unlike wood, composite decking and vinyl decking resist warping, expanding and contracting. You can rest assured that temperature fluctuations, humidity and precipitation will not damage or degrade your deck! Your deck will also be easy to maintain. Composite and vinyl decking only need an occasional cleaning with soap and water.
We proudly offer TimberTech Composite Decking and CertainTeed Vinyl Decking, as well as Superior Aluminum Products for all your aluminum column and railing needs. Come visit us to explore all of your decking options, and before you know it, you’ll be enjoying your deck!
