Frequently Asked Questions About Composite Decks
Are composite decks safe in Wisconsin's winter weather?
Yes. Composite decking is designed to resist moisture, cracking, and warping during Wisconsin’s freeze-thaw cycles. We recommend using a plastic shovel for snow removal and non-corrosive ice melt for added traction in icy conditions.
Can composite decks fade over time?
TimberTech composite decking features UV-resistant color technology that protects against fading, even under direct sunlight. Your deck will retain its vibrant appearance for years with minimal color change.
Can I customize the color and style of my composite deck?
Absolutely! GM Home Improvements offers a wide range of TimberTech composite decking colors, board patterns, railing styles, and lighting options. Every deck is custom-designed to complement your home’s exterior and your personal style.
Do composite decks get hot in the sun?
Composite decking can become warm under direct sunlight, similar to wood, but lighter colors tend to stay cooler. TimberTech’s advanced surface technology helps reflect heat, keeping your deck comfortable even on summer days.
Do composite decks require a lot of maintenance?
Not at all! A simple cleaning with soap, water, and a soft brush a few times per year is all it takes. No sanding, staining, or sealing—just easy upkeep and long-lasting beauty.
Do you handle deck design and permitting?
Yes! GM Home Improvements offers full-service deck design, permitting, and installation. We handle all local building codes and ensure your new deck meets or exceeds Southeastern Wisconsin requirements.
How long do composite decks last?
High-quality composite decks, like those built with TimberTech materials, can last 25–50 years with minimal maintenance. Unlike wood, they won’t rot, warp, or crack—making them ideal for Wisconsin’s changing seasons.
Is composite decking more expensive than wood?
The upfront cost of composite decking is slightly higher than pressure-treated wood, but it quickly pays off in the long run. You’ll save hundreds each year on maintenance, repairs, and refinishing, making composite decks a smart long-term investment.
What’s the difference between composite decking and wood decking?
Composite decking is made from a blend of recycled wood fibers and plastics, providing the natural look of wood with added durability and low maintenance. It doesn’t require annual staining or sealing, and it’s resistant to insects, mold, and fading—unlike traditional wood.
