TIMBERTECH DECKING
vs.
WOOD
The beauty of wood without the maintenance
TimberTech ADVANCED PVC and Composite Decking offers many benefits wood can’t.
- TimberTech boards have long-lasting durability – unlike wood, they won’t rot, peel, split, crack, or host destructive insects
- Our boards maintain their beauty with very little maintenance, while wood will naturally fade and decay without regular upkeep
- High-performance TimberTech decks have a longer lifetime than wood decks, and lower lifetime maintenance costs since they never need treating, sanding, staining, painting, or frequent sealing for protection like a wood deck
- TimberTech decks save you time and money in the long run when compared to wood, plus they’re protected by our industry-leading warranties
- Unlike wood, our boards never splinter, so they’re safer for children, pets, and bare feet
- Our decking offers the best selection of the most realistic-looking wood species, colours, and textures, that might be difficult to find in a lumberyard
- With every board made of 60% to 85% recycled materials (depending on the collection), TimberTech decking is a sustainable choice (and doesn’t contribute to deforestation or harvesting of tropical hardwoods)
- TimberTech ADVANCED PVC boards offer Class A Flame Spread Rating, WUI compliance, or both, making them a better choice for fire zones than some naturally flammable woods

- Our material scientists engineered the highly durable material to achieve our most realistic wood looks while eliminating the plastic appearance associated with some competitors’ PVC deck boards

- Like most early generation PVC boards, ADVANCED PVC boards offer Class A Flame Spread Rating, WUI compliance, or both, making them a better choice for fire zones than most competitors’ composite boards
