What Are the Best Materials for a Deck in Texas?
The Texas weather and climate can affect many outdoor building materials. Extreme heat, humidity, rain, storms, and pests and animals can all cause certain materials to degrade. We’ll help you choose the best materials for your deck based on your aesthetic preferences, existing architecture, deck design, and budget. Some of the materials we recommend for building a deck are:
- AZEK® Advanced PVC Decking – AZEC PVC decking is premium decking material made from 100% cellular polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It offers superior resistance to moisture, rot, stains, and fading. It is also more comfortable than natural wood as it has a cool surface temperature even in the sun and doesn’t splinter or crack. Available in a range of colors and designs, it is a durable, low-maintenance, and eco-friendly alternative to natural wood.
- TREX and Timbertech Composite Decking – Both TREX and Timbertech utilize composite materials to build an eco-friendly, durable deck. They are affordable, lightweight, and highly versatile. They are also available in a wide range of styles, colors, and designs, some of which mimic the appearance of natural hardwood. While composite decking is more expensive than natural wood, it will last longer and doesn’t require the same care and maintenance. It is naturally resistant to pests and moisture, and can be treated with UV inhibitors to resist heat gain and fading.
- Wooden Decking – Natural wood decks are beautiful. Wood is an affordable, attractive option for custom decks. Treated hardwoods are resistant to decay, moisture, and insects. However, they require regular sanding, staining or re-painting, and treating. Pressure-treated lumber is more budget-friendly than hardwood, but it must be treated to resist decay and pests. In Texas, there is always the risk of warping, cracking, and decay from the intense heat, humidity, and sun.
Choosing Deck Railing Options
Deck railings enhance the safety, comfort, and accessibility of your deck. They also allow us to overcome issues like sloped yards or build multi-story or second-story decks. We offer a wide range of elegant and long-lasting deck railing choices:
- AFCO Aluminum Railing
- Cable Railing
- Wooden Railing
- Iron Railing
- Composite Railing
