Composite Decking vs Timber Decking

Composite Decking Advantages
- Lower maintenance
- No regular staining required
- Better moisture resistance
- Reduced fading and cracking
- Longer-lasting appearance
Timber Decking Advantages
- Natural timber feel
- Traditional appearance
- Can be re-sanded and refinished
Many customers choose composite decking for its durability and reduced maintenance requirements.

Our composite decking boards are designed for Australian conditions and offer:

This makes composite decking a practical choice for outdoor entertaining areas throughout Melbourne.

Unlike timber decking, composite boards do not require regular oiling, sealing, or staining.
