Composite decking is primarily used for outdoor areas such as patios, balconies, gardens, pool decks, and walkways. It is ideal for high-moisture, sun-exposed environments.
Composite decking is relatively easy to install. Most products feature interlocking systems or snap-lock designs, allowing for quick and straightforward installation without the need for nails or glue. Compared to traditional wood decking, composite decking installation is faster and simpler.
The typical lifespan of composite decking ranges from 15 to 30 years, depending on the material quality, environmental conditions, and maintenance. With proper care, composite decking can retain its aesthetic appeal and performance for many years.
