Composite or Vinyl?
Choosing the right decking material for your home in Kamloops, BC, is a major factor in determining the longevity and durability of your decking. The most frequently used materials for decking in BC are composite and vinyl. Both of these materials are high quality and weather resistant but have nuances that will affect which product is better for your home. Let’s look deeper into composite and vinyl decking below.
Composite Decking
Composite decking is best used in homes whose backyards receive full sun for an extended period. Often, south-facing backyards fit this criteria. In addition to sun exposure, composite decking can closely mimic real wood. For homeowners looking for a deck that appears natural but without the short lifespan of wood decks, composite decking is a fine choice. This material is more durable than wood and requires very little maintenance. One or two power washes a year should be more than enough to keep your new deck in mint condition.
Vinyl Decking
If you are working with an unconventionally shaped backyard or are hoping for an unconventionally shaped deck, vinyl is the material best suited for the job. Vinyl will give your deck builders the ability to shape your deck to your liking without the limitations that come with other materials. This type is one of the most comfortable underfoot, and is another low maintenance option. One of the reasons that vinyl is the most popular is because of the plethora of colours and styles homeowners can choose from. Vinyl is adept at blending in and making a statement in your backyard, whichever suits your tastes.
When to Build
While the best time to start building a new deck is early fall, there are more factors to consider than simply the time of year. For instance, a new house without a deck may not suit homeowners who love to barbeque or throw backyard parties. Your home might be lacking a deck altogether, or perhaps the current deck is in severe disrepair. If your current deck is exhibiting signs of wood rot, warping, or something else, a new deck made from composite or vinyl may be the right call.
