The Art of Composite Decking: What You Need to Know Before Installation

October 5, 2023

At Baird Construction, we believe that decking is more than just an extension of your home; it's an art. A well-designed deck breathes life into your outdoor space, becoming a focal point for gatherings, a sanctuary for relaxation, or even a place for creativity. One of our specialties at Baird Construction is composite decking—a popular choice among homeowners that combines beauty, durability, and low maintenance.


What is Composite Decking?


Composite decking is an innovative outdoor flooring solution that is made from a blend of recycled plastic and wood fibres. This unique combination takes the best of both materials: the aesthetics and natural feel of wood, and the resistance and longevity of plastic.


Why Choose Composite Decking?


1. Durability

With Canadian weather being as unpredictable as it is, composite decking is a trusted ally. It resists fading, staining, scratching, and mold—offering a worry-free solution that will look great year after year. Plus, it won't warp, rot or crack like traditional wood, ensuring the safety and longevity of your deck.


2. Low Maintenance

Imagine a summer without the need for sanding, staining, or sealing your deck. Sounds dreamy, doesn't it? With composite decking, all you need is a bit of soapy water to keep it looking brand-new all season long.


3. Variety of Styles

Composite decking comes in a wide variety of colours, textures, and styles. Whether you prefer a sleek, contemporary design, or a more rustic, traditional feel—there is a composite deck material to match your unique style.
