Composite Deck Contractor Want to have a new deck build? Over the past few decades, solid lumber has become increasingly scarce due to worldwide demand. One alternate option is composite wood decks that come in a wide variety of consumer-friendly options from recyclable PVC plastic to pure recycled acrylic composites that blend plastics with natural humps or fibers like bamboo.   With natural lumber supplies dwindling--especially for the types of lumber with natural resistance to decay and pests, such as redwood, cedar, and teak composite decking is becoming an increasingly popular choice for decks and other outdoor structures. One of the great benefits of composite decks is that they are quite durable and are made to look like wood. You get the best of both worlds through increased durability and pleasing visual aesthetics.
