What Makes Armadillo Composite Decking Different
When homeowners compare decking materials, the main questions usually revolve around maintenance, appearance, and how the deck will perform over time.
Armadillo composite decking is often chosen by homeowners who want a durable deck surface that requires less upkeep than natural wood.
Low-Maintenance Deck Surface
One of the main reasons homeowners choose composite decking is the reduced maintenance. Unlike wood decks, composite boards do not need regular staining or sealing. Most homeowners simply wash the surface occasionally to keep the deck looking its best.
Consistent Appearance Over Time
Composite decking helps maintain a uniform look across the entire deck surface. Instead of the natural variation found in lumber, the boards keep a consistent color and texture, which helps the deck maintain a finished appearance year after year.
Performs Well in Outdoor Conditions
Outdoor decks in Oregon & Washington experience regular moisture and seasonal weather changes. Composite decking is often selected because it handles those conditions well and avoids many of the issues that can affect natural wood decks.
Natural Wood-Inspired Look
Many homeowners choose Armadillo decking because it offers the visual character of wood while providing the convenience of a composite surface. The result is a deck that feels natural while requiring less ongoing upkeep.
Rick’s installs composite decks with careful attention to framing layout, spacing, and board alignment so the finished deck integrates naturally with the home and surrounding landscape.
Armadillo Composite Deck Design Considerations
Composite decks can be designed in many ways depending on how the outdoor space will be used. By looking at how the space will be used, Rick’s helps homeowners plan a deck layout that fits naturally with the home and surrounding yard.
Ground-Level Composite Deck
Ground-level decks sit close to the surrounding yard and often create a comfortable outdoor space for seating, grilling, or relaxing with family and friends.
Elevated Composite Deck Layout
On properties where the yard slopes away from the house, an elevated deck can create a level outdoor platform while maintaining access to the yard below.
Deck Size and Outdoor Living Areas
Composite decks can be sized to support a range of activities. Some homeowners prefer a simple seating area, while others design larger layouts that include dining areas or gathering spaces.
