BOARD TYPES
Composite, PVC, capped polymer, and mineral-based decking are not the same thing.
Composite decking usually blends recycled plastic with wood fiber, then protects the board with a durable cap. PVC decking is synthetic through the board and is often used for premium moisture resistance. Mineral-based boards from Deckorators use a different core that can be lighter and stiffer. The right choice depends on budget, heat, scratch expectations, color, warranty, and install details.
- Trex composite decking for broad brand recognition and proven value
- TimberTech AZEK PVC and composite options for premium looks and heat-conscious projects
- Deckorators mineral-based decking for traction, strength, and fire-rated options
- Fiberon PVC and composite lines for strong value and color variety

- Compare light vs dark boards for Utah heat and dust
- Plan fascia, stair boards, railing, and lighting while choosing the deck board
- Ask about lead times and compatible fastener systems
Local comparison advantage
