MATERIALS
Decking Materials We Use
Some of the materials we have used on homes throughout the Syosset & Plainview, NY area:
Natural Wood
These decks are extremely dense, durable, and on the higher side of the price range. They do repel insects and prevent decay, lasting about 25 years.
Composite
This is becoming an increasingly popular choice amongst homes in the East Meadow, NY area due to its low maintenance and middle-of-the-road price point. Composite decks last around 25 years.
Pressure-Treated Wood
This is the most common decking choice due to its affordability, easy installation, strength, and comfort. However, you will need to provide annual maintenance to have it last roughly 15 years.
Plastic
Made from environmentally-safe plastic, this option is maintenance-free outside of a cleaning occasionally. They are a bit more durable than composite decking but lack the look and feel of real wood. Most manufacturers offer 50-year warranties while the decks typically last about 30 years.
MAINTENANCE
Deck Maintenance Checklist
Check for rot & decay
Look over your deck thoroughly. Are there any obvious signs of rot? You can use a screwdriver and attempt to poke through the wood (you should not be able to).
Check the integrity of stairs, railings, & fasteners
Are the railings wobbly? The stairs a bit loose? You do not want to leave these issues unattended.
Clean thoroughly
Regular sweepings can keep debris from piling up and creating more issues. A good power washing once a year is always recommended.
Stain & seal
For wood decks specifically, this includes sanding, staining & sealing. It is crucial for prevention of rot & decay, while offering water-resistance.
