Frequently Asked Questions

The most common wood used for building decks is pressure-treated lumber, usually made from pine. It’s popular because it’s affordable, widely available, and treated with chemicals to resist rot, insects, and decay. This makes it a practical choice for homeowners who want a durable deck without spending too much. While it may not have the rich appearance of hardwoods, it can be stained or painted to match your style. Other common wood choices include cedar and redwood, which are naturally resistant to weather and insects and have a more attractive appearance, though they cost more than pressure-treated pine.

Ipe wood (pronounced “ee-pay”) is one of the most weather-resistant woods available for decking. It’s a dense tropical hardwood that naturally resists moisture, rot, and insects—even in tough climates. Teak, mahogany, and redwood also have strong weather-resistant properties and are often used in high-end decks. For a more affordable but still weather-resistant option, cedar is a good choice. It contains natural oils that help protect it from moisture and pests. No matter which wood you choose, sealing and regular maintenance will help extend its life, especially in areas with heavy rain, snow, or sun.

The most budget-friendly material for decks is pressure-treated wood. It typically costs less than other materials, making it a great option for those who want a good-looking deck without breaking the bank. While it requires regular maintenance, like staining or sealing every year or two, it can still last many years if properly cared for. Other low-cost options include basic concrete patios or gravel surfaces, though these are not traditional wood decks. Composite decking is more expensive upfront but saves money over time with less maintenance.

The longest-lasting decks are typically made from composite materials, aluminum, or certain hardwoods like Ipe. Composite decking, made from a mix of plastic and wood fibers, can last 25 to 30 years or more with minimal maintenance. Aluminum decks can last even longer and are highly resistant to rust, moisture, and damage. Among natural wood options, Ipe can last up to 40 years with proper care due to its density and resistance to weather. While pressure-treated wood is more affordable, it usually lasts about 10 to 15 years, depending on how well it’s maintained.

Yes, it’s a good idea to seal your wood deck once a year, especially if you live in an area with harsh weather. Sealing protects the wood from moisture, sunlight, and temperature changes, which can cause cracking, warping, and fading over time. Regular sealing also helps prevent mold, mildew, and wood rot. Some higher-end sealers last longer than one year, so you might be able to seal every 2–3 years, depending on the product and the climate. Make sure the deck is clean and dry before sealing, and use a high-quality wood sealer for the best results.

You can make your deck look more expensive without spending a lot by using a few smart and creative ideas. First, stain or paint the wood in a nice, deep color to make it look clean and polished. Even a fresh coat can make a big difference. Adding simple features like built-in benches, planter boxes, or outdoor lighting can also make the space look more stylish and well-designed.

You can also upgrade the look with details like decorative railings, a pergola, or a privacy screen, which give your deck a more custom feel. Using cozy outdoor furniture, colorful pillows, a rug, and maybe a few plants or lanterns can make it feel warm and welcoming. If you have a little more to spend, things like composite decking, hidden screws, or lights under the deck can give your space a modern, high-end look. It’s all about the little touches that bring everything together and make the space feel special.
