say goodbye to your average wood deck
When it comes to planning your dream deck, choosing the right decking material is a crucial decision. While traditional wood has long been a popular choice, it’s no longer the only option available. Many homeowners automatically think of pressure-treated lumber for their decks, especially for the framing. However, if you haven’t explored engineered materials, you’re missing out on numerous advantages that wood simply can’t offer.
If you desire to expand your outdoor living space without the burden of frequent maintenance, composite decking is the clear winner. With a wide range of colors and styles, composite decking offers endless aesthetic choices to seamlessly blend with any outdoor setting. Modern technology has enhanced the appearance of composite materials, providing a real wood look that continues to advance and surpass the limitations of natural wood.
Upgrade your deck with composite decking and enjoy the benefits of durability, low maintenance, and stunning visual appeal. Say goodbye to the time-consuming tasks of sanding, staining, and sealing, and say hello to a beautiful deck that will stand the test of time. Explore the world of composite decking options to bring your dream deck to life.

the benefits of composite decking in calgary
safe and secure
Composite decking, unlike regular decking, prevents Weathering, Warping, Splintering, or Fading. A composite deck is slip-resistant and splinter-free; due to the innovative fitting, no nails, screws are outside facing the deck, which can hurt your feet. It is entirely barefoot friendly.
durability
Traditional decking, no doubts, looks fascinating, but it is easily weathered. Hard rain, storms, blistering heat, and other unexpected weather changes can make the deck fade and wrap. The composite deck never requires much maintenance, as it is highly resistant to mold, rain, heat, scratching, and staining. It lasts much more longer and is suitable for any environmental changes. As it is resistant to heat and rainstorms, so you need not worry about it cracking. An average wooden deck lasts for 15-20 years, but composite decks are durable enough to last over 30 years.
texture/design
Composite decking matches the look of exotic hardwood and traditional wood timber. It comes in various colors, with different designs and styles, which makes your outdoor living space much more appealing. Calgary decking is relatively more color stable, the initial color lightening as the product weathers look amazing, which usually occurs in the first few months. Without the use of screws and nails, the deck has a smooth and clear surface, giving it an elegant modern feel.
HOW COMPOSITE DECKING CAN FIT INTO YOUR OUTDOOR LIVING SPACE
The heart of your house is your living area, and the heart of your outdoor living room is decking. Outdoor living space deserves to be the best and designed perfectly. It’s the first impression of your house where everyone prefers to spend their time, sit and relax. Composite decking can perfectly fit into your outdoor living space. Calgary deck is a fantastic option because it requires low maintenance, has an attractive appearance, and it is durable. You can extend your outdoor living space with a raised deck or balcony without even disturbing your garden. Such areas tend to offer spectacular views of the area; you can sit, plan some Bar B Q, and many more. It’s beneficial for people who are thinking of expanding their outdoor living area. With composite decking, you can make a converted seating area and a garden room where you can sit and enjoy in your meantime. It’s a beautiful method with a smooth texture with low maintenance, and high durability. You can also add a pool or hot tub and many more.
low maintenance, high enjoyment
One of the most significant benefits that come with composite decking is that it does away with the burden of constant upkeep. If you use wood decks, they need to be re-stained, sanded regularly and power washed to maintain their appearance and beauty. But Composite decking doesn’t require much effort, sanding, or re-staining. Even if you occasionally ash or restrain it, its colors never fade away or get dull. In addition to that, wood decks also require anti-pesticides and metals in the treating process, preventing pests. But it is harmful to children and animals across. In competitor to that, the Composite deck doesn’t require these harmful additives as it is naturally resistant to mold, decay, insects, and all.

composite deck construction
Composite deck construction is a popular choice for Calgary homeowners looking to add an outdoor living space to their property. Composite decking materials are made of a combination of recycled plastics and wood fibers, providing a durable and low-maintenance option.
The construction process begins with designing the layout and selecting the materials. The decking boards are cut to the desired length and installed onto a frame made of treated lumber. The frame is typically supported by footings that are dug and concrete poured into the ground.
Once the frame is complete, the decking boards are secured to the frame using screws or hidden fasteners. Additional features, such as railing systems, stairs, and lighting, can be added to complete the look and functionality of the deck.
Composite decks require minimal maintenance, but periodic cleaning is recommended to keep the surface looking its best. With proper construction and maintenance, a composite deck can provide many years of enjoyment for homeowners.

calgary composite decking: wood alternative
Composite decking is an alternative to wood decking, made up of plastic, wood fibers, and other bonding agents. In the early 1990s, Wood-plastic composites were introduced in the market for decking purposes, and sooner they started growing popular because of their long life and robustness. Composite decking is made from a combination of all recycled plastic, hardwood waste. All these are mixed with pigments, inhibitors, borate preservatives, and then heated to transform into board-shaped lengths, which are then cooled.

A composite deck with an inlay design can add a sophisticated and custom look to your outdoor space. Here’s a few reasons why
- Visual Appeal: Inlay designs involve using composite deck boards of different colors or orientations to create patterns or designs within the decking. This can range from simple geometric patterns to more intricate designs, like compass, deck knots or sunbursts.
- Color Contrasts: By combining different colors of composite decking, you can create striking visual contrasts. For instance, a dark-colored inlay in a lighter deck or vice versa can create an eye-catching feature.
- Board Orientation:Changing the orientation of the boards can create interesting patterns. For example, a standard deck might have boards running lengthwise, but an inlay design might include a section where boards are laid diagonally or in a herringbone pattern.
- Bordering: Inlay designs often include a border around the deck or around the inlay itself, which helps define the area and can make the design pop. This border can be a different color or the same color in a different orientation.
- Customization: The beauty of inlay designs is that they can be customized to suit your personal style and the overall aesthetic of your home and landscape. From simple to elaborate, the design can be tailored to your preferences.
Recessed Deck Lights:
Recessed deck lights, seamlessly installed flush with the decking, provide a sophisticated and understated illumination of the deck surface. These lights cast a gentle, ambient glow, enhancing the deck’s aesthetic appeal while improving safety by clearly defining walkways and edges. Their elegant design ensures they complement the deck without being visually intrusive.
Stair Lights:
Installing stair lights on or beside deck stairs significantly enhances visibility and safety. These lights guide the way, reducing the risk of trips and falls, especially in low-light conditions. They also add a charming aesthetic element, subtly highlighting the stairway and contributing to the overall ambiance of the deck area.
Post Cap Lights:
Post cap lights, perched elegantly atop deck posts, serve a dual purpose. They illuminate the deck’s perimeter, enhancing safety and visibility, while also adding a decorative touch. Their strategic placement not only lights up the boundaries of the deck but also accentuates its architectural features, creating a warm and inviting ambiance
