Here is a run down on the different types of decks available for your Denver Deck.
Wood Deck in Denver
There are several benefits that you receive when you decide to go with a wood deck.
It is a lot easier to work with wood for your decking material, when compared to a composite or stone deck. You can cut wood into any shape you want, where other materials (particularly stone) are more difficult to do so.
In some situations, a wood deck in Colorado can save you money. Depending on the brand and quality you pick, composite and stone decks can get very expensive.
The main negative to a wood deck is the required maintenance. In order to ensure your deck lasts as long as possible, and looks its best, a yearly stain is suggested. This will cost you some money as well as some time
Composite Deck in Denver
There are several reasons why many people choose to have Denver Outdoors build them a Composite Deck in Denver, rather than going with the traditional wood deck or a stone deck.
The most obvious reason is the low maintenance involved after the initial build. If you chose a high quality brand, the composite deck will maintain its color for years without the need to paint, seal or stain. This will ultimately save you time and money.
There are a few disadvantages to composite decks. For one, they are usually more expensive than a wood deck. Though composite is just used for the actual decking (the part of the deck you see), the cost can sometimes be double what you would pay for the same amount of wood decking. A composite deck is also at more of a risk in regards to damage. If you scratch the deck with your grill or a piece of outdoor furniture, the scratch is going nowhere since its on plastic.
Stone Decks in Colorado are starting to become more and more popular recently. There are many reasons for this recent shift.
For one, the maintenance after the initial deck building process is minimal to none. There's obviously no reason to stain, paint or seal a stone deck.
Aesthetically, its hard to beat the looks of a Stone Deck in Denver.
The two main disadvantages to a stone deck are:
1) Price - A stone deck, though reasonably affordable is still more expensive than most wood or composite decks.
2) Limited Angles - A natural stone deck is hard to manipulate into sharp angles and tight corners, as the deck is made up of actual stones. There is some give, but not nearly as much as there is with composite or wood decks.
