Deck boards are the most visible and most important pieces of decking materials. Let's examine the difference between a good choice of deck boards or a bad one: |
Eco Friendly Deck Boards
| Good Deck Boards | Bad Deck Boards | Why? |
| A safe deck | A deck you can fall through | Cheap deck boards are infamous for "fall through" flaws! |
| A thing of beauty | An ugly unnatural thing that clashes with your house and the landscape | Even you are 100% logic based, having a deck that's attractive vs ugly helps the resale value of your home. |
| A smooth deck | "Cupped" and "Crowned" bent deck boards | Cupping and crowning deck boards are slightly curled on the edges making our deck unsightly and difficult to walk on. |
| Less to no splinters | Splinters guaranteed | Splinters suck, what more can one say? Treated wood, plastic or PVC splinters are actually harmful! |
| Respect Mother Nature | Spreading harmful chemicals on your children, your yard and the community. | No one wants to poison the earth. They just don't know how to avoid it. |
| Resist insects | Provide a feast for wood eating insect right next to your house. | Some deck materials are naturally resistant to wood eating insects. |
| Resists fungus | Provide food for mildew and mold | Ewww. Not really dangerous, but still. |
| Lasts a long time | Have to be replaced every few years. | No one likes replacing their deck boards do they? |
