What are Wood Decks?
Wood decks are outdoor structures built using natural lumber, offering a classic and timeless aesthetic. Popular wood options include:
Pressure-Treated Lumber(PT): Affordable, durable, and treated to resist decay, moisture, and insects, making it ideal for outdoor use.
Cedar: Cedar is known for its natural oils and beautiful grain, and cedar adds an upscale touch but requires careful consideration due to its higher cost and susceptibility to rot over time.
Both options have their pros and cons, and our team will guide you in choosing the best materials for your outdoor space.
