Build a Better Deck with Composite Materials
If you’re planning to add a new deck or replace an old one, composite decking is a smart alternative to traditional wood. Composite materials are designed to last longer, require less maintenance, and hold up well in all types of weather. At Simpson Decks & Construction, we focus exclusively on one of the best types of composite decking available, PVC. It’s durable, low-maintenance, and ideal for homeowners who want a clean, long-lasting deck without the hassle of sealing, staining, or repairing wood year after year.
What Is Composite Decking and Why Simpson Decks Uses PVC
Composite decking refers to materials made from a blend of synthetic and recycled components, often combining wood fibers and plastics. While there are different types of composite decking, Simpson Decks & Construction builds exclusively with PVC, a high-performance material made entirely from plastic.
PVC decking does not absorb moisture, will not rot, and resists fading, mold, and insects. Compared to wood-based composites, PVC is lighter, more water-resistant, and often more durable over time. Our team will help you choose the right PVC product, color, and layout for your space, and handle the full installation from framing to final board. The result is a finished deck built for everyday use and long-term value.
Benefits of PVC Decking
If you’re looking for a composite deck that stays looking good without constant work, PVC offers excellent value and durability. PVC stands out as one of the most reliable options for long-term performance. Here’s why more homeowners are choosing PVC:
No need for sanding, staining, or sealing. Just rinse with water and mild soap.
PVC does not absorb water, so it won’t swell, warp, or grow mold.
PVC decking can last 30 years or more with minimal upkeep.
Smooth surfaces with slip-resistant textures make it a safe choice for families.
PVC boards maintain their color and finish better than wood-based products.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does Simpson only use PVC for composite decks?
We’ve found that PVC offers the best long-term performance. It doesn’t absorb water, doesn’t splinter, and stands up better to weather than other composite options.
How long does PVC decking last?
PVC decks typically last 30 years or more. Many products come with manufacturer warranties for that full time frame.
Is PVC more expensive than wood or other composites?
Yes, PVC usually costs more upfront. However, it saves money in the long run due to lower maintenance and longer lifespan.
Does PVC decking get hot in the sun?
Like most decking materials, PVC can heat up. Lighter colors and good airflow underneath the deck can help reduce surface temperature.
Can I install PVC decking myself?
You can, but proper installation is important to avoid spacing or structural issues. Simpson Decks ensures the deck is level, safe, and built to last.
Is there a variety of color options?
Yes. PVC decking comes in a wide range of colors and wood-look finishes. We’ll help you choose one that fits your home.
How do I keep my PVC deck clean?
A simple rinse with a garden hose and mild soap is usually enough. Avoid harsh chemicals or power washing.
