Composite Decks
Composite decks are built with composite wood. Composite wood (aka engineered wood) is made from real wood fibers combined with plastic to make it stronger and more durable. This means composite wood decks have a lower chance of molding, warping or rotting like decks built with natural wood.
Composite wood cost: $55 - $100 per square foot installed
While wood decks need repairs within 10-30 years, composite decks can last 5 decades before needing maintenance. So, despite being more expensive up front, composite decks will pay for themselves with savings on maintenance.
Composite Deck Construction
Building a deck is a common DIY project, but composite deck construction has unique technical requirements and a higher initial cost, so it is best to hire a professional.
Framing for a composite deck is not the same as a wooden deck. The plastic material in composite wood needs strict support to avoid warping in the hot sun. Doing so incorrectly can be a very costly mistake.
Wood Deck Construction
Lumber decks are made of natural wood. One advantage of a regular lumber deck is the look, smell and feel of wood, which synthetic materials cannot replicate.
Wood deck costs: $20 - $55 per square foot installed (depending on the specific wood type)
Another advantage of real lumber decks is lower heat absorption than other materials, so the surface of your deck will stay cool for longer. Lumber also tends to be cheaper than composite wood and other deck materials.
