It’s low-maintenance
If you’re worried about maintaining your deck, composite decking is the material for you. These decks will only need regular cleaning a couple of times a year, or immediate cleaning whenever spills or accidents occur. A wood deck will require periodic staining or painting to keep it looking great. Plus, wood decks might need board replacements should part of the deck start to rot.
