Three Styles of Composite Porch Decking


Adding a porch or deck increases the functionality and value of any home. They offer the ability to entertain numerous guests at once, which may not have been an available option beforehand. However, constructing the porch or deck may seem like a daunting task to many people. Yet, composite porch decking makes construction easy and quick. There are several styles to choose from, each offering its own unique style and pizazz that would pair well with many different types of homes.

Capricorn is one of the most popular styles. It was inspired by the tropical getaways that many people can only dream of experiencing. It resembles real wood and can come in a variety of rich brown colors to make any homeowner happy with their decision. While some people may think that real wood would be a better investment, this composite is much more durable. It is naturally water resistant, which means homeowners do not have to worry about the possibility of rotting (which is an ever present factor with a wooden deck). Overall, it stands up to the test of time much better.

The marine style is great for someone who has a house or vacation home on the waterfront. It is designed to resemble the docks and boardwalks along the ocean. It can be built around the house to serve as a porch, or it can be made into a pathway leading to the water, which cuts down on getting covered in sand. The unique finish is slip and water-resistant. This not only protects the integrity of the structure, but also the safety of those who walk on it because wet, slippery feet can sometimes make a disastrous combination.

Both of these predecessors stemmed from the Intrepid design. It is the original composite porch decking. It has a reversible design, so if someone ever tires of their porch or deck it can be switched over with a little hard work. On one side is a smooth and solid finish. On the flip side is a textured surface that resembles real wood. Both make for a durable deck that will last many years. Like the marine style, it is slip resistant to help protect others as they walk along it. Since they are wood free, they are splinter free, allowing everyone to walk in their bare feet without any type of worry.

Homeowners always seem to have an endless list of improvements they want to make to their homes. The addition of a deck or porch will always be one of the first on the list for many. Every homeowner seems to have the need to allow their home to reach its full potential. Composite porch decking is a fun and unique way to fulfill this need. They are not only an addition to a home; they are an investment in a home. A porch or deck will increase the value of a home and allow homeowners the freedom to entertain family and friends (which is the greatest benefit of them all).
