Interested in composite decking? See its possibilities here!

Composite decks are one of the most trusted decking materials on the market. Composite is a great choice if you want a deck that looks like wood without the need for sanding, staining, and repairs. It’s resistant to rot, mold, insect damage, and more. Plus, it has good friction underfoot. We’ve got these composite decking design ideas to help you get started.

Composite Decking Design Ideas: Layout

Extension of the House

Your composite deck can be an extension of your house. Your back door can lead to an outdoor living space that is almost seamless from the house. If you have wide back doors, you can double extend your living space even more by opening them up onto the deck on nice days.

A Floating Retreat

Some composite decks are freestanding and sit in the middle or at the back of the backyard. It can be a floating retreat away from the house, giving you sanctuary. Add shelter, some outdoor furniture, and some plants, and you have a lovely composite deck.

A Cascading Outdoor Living Space

If you have a high elevation deck or a sloped yard, a tiered composite deck might be best for your property. Its multiple levels can be separate outdoor living spaces.

A Poolside Plateau

Do you need a pool deck? Why not try composite? This durable material made of wood fibers and plastic will withstand wet, hot days around the pool and is easy to clean.

A Covered Outdoor Living Space

Stay cool and comfortable with a pergola or pavilion over your deck. Pergolas have slatted roofs, and pavilions have solid roofs. You could also choose a large outdoor umbrella or a retractable awning.

Built-In Lighting

Built-in lighting allows you to spend time on your deck into the evening. You can also time the lighting to come on in the evening automatically so there is always visibility.

Built-In Seating

Built-in seating on decks can look like built-in benches or sunken seating areas. It can be more creative than you think!

An Outdoor Kitchen

There’s nothing like eating meals cooked on the grill. If having an outdoor kitchen is your backyard goal, composite decking is a great surface on which to build one.

Incorporated Landscaping

Plants make everything manmade feel more lively. If you love plants, incorporate them into your deck with built-in planters, pots, or garden beds.
