What is Composite decking?
Composite decking is a popular wood deck alternative, which is incredibly low maintenance and lasts even longer than traditional timber decking thanks to its durability and imperviousness to rot. As composite is derived from a combination of recycled plastic and wood fibres, the composite range also offers a wide variety of colours, styles and textures.

If you’re in the market for a deck in Perth that is low maintenance, composite decking could be the way to go.
As this type of decking doesn’t need to be stained, sealed, or sanded like traditional timber decks. Because of this, composite decks are often found to be cheaper than timber over their product life.
Composite Decking additionally has a very long life span, is durable, termite resistant, fire resistant, and is also moisture resistant.
