When it comes to decking, both timber and composite have strengths. Both are robust and sturdy, and they each serve as stylish focal points for any outdoor space. And no one knows that better than the team at Savoy Timber!
However, in a game of longevity, composite decking is likely to come out on top. It may be slightly more pricey, but the extra years you’ll get out of it will more than make it worth your while!
As beautiful as a timber deck is, like all wood, it will eventually need replacing due to age and weathering. Still, you’ll get at least a good decade, if not more, out of it if it’s well-maintained and treated like our wooden decking is here at Savoy Timber. But if you’re looking for an ultra-long-term solution that’s incredibly low maintenance, the composite may just be the perfect decking choice.
Still, though, nothing is entirely indestructible, and with the UK’s unpredictable weather – sweltering summers and freezing winters – just how weather-resistant is composite decking? Let’s find out!
If you’re unfamiliar with composite decking, it’s been around for a few years now as an alternative to timber decking. It’s designed to be incredibly durable and low-maintenance due to the fact that it’s manufactured from a blend of both authentic wood fibres and recycled plastic, replicating the look of traditional wood while having an extra layer of sturdiness.
So, just how weather resistant is composite decking? Well, as it turns out – very! Thanks to the plastic included in composite decking boards, they retain their structural integrity extremely well, resisting moisture from wet weather, UV rays from the sun, and temperature fluctuations from summer to winter without warping, cracking, or splintering!
Another benefit that really sways people is how low-maintenance composite decking is. Unlike timber, which needs yearly TLC to keep it looking stunning, composite requires very little maintenance outside of the occasional cleaning, so there’s no need to stain, paint, or seal a composite deck. So, if you prefer a set-and-forget solution when it comes to your outdoor structures or you simply don’t have the time to tend to a timber deck, composite will be an excellent addition to your garden!
