Veranda Decking Introduces Reversible Composite Boards

April 2005 – Veranda decking introduces reversible composite decking boards that feature the beauty of wood or the clean look of a textured finish. Veranda decking gives homeowners a best value with less of the maintenance issues associated with wood decks. Available in three rich colors: slate grey, buff cedar and cascade redwood, Veranda’s reversible composite decking will be available at The Home Depot in June 2005.

Veranda decking is the perfect choice for homeowners who want to stop the spring ritual of scraping, sealing and staining their wood decks. Veranda offers consumers a reasonably priced composite decking that is attractive, requires little upkeep and is easy to install. Reversible boards offer the homeowner two looks – roughsawn texture for a uniform look or an embossed pattern for a wood grain appearance.

Composite decking boards incur an additional expense at the time of purchase, but eliminate not only the costs associated with yearly staining or protective coating and the need to annually replace rotting or splitting boards, but also an entire weekend lost to preparing a deck for the Summer. According to Ed Repak, director of Construction & Drafting with Archadeck, the nation’s largest deck builder, “A deck built with low-maintenance decking materials typically costs 30 to 50 percent more than treated wood. However, due to the fact that you never have to seal or stain a low-maintenance deck, you usually recoup the cost within about five years.”

The only task necessary to keep Veranda looking great, is to power wash it as often as deemed necessary.

Veranda is composed of wood fiber and high-density polypropylene plastic. The composition of Veranda materials ensure its sustainability; the plastic shields the wood from insects and moisture damage, while the wood fiber protects the plastic from UV damage while adding stability. Veranda requires no special tools for installation and offers color coordinating trapeze screws to ease the building process.

Veranda also offers fencing, lattice and railing solutions to match their decking products. Veranda’s vinyl fencing, lattice and railing solutions come in a variety of colors and designs to meet the style needs of any backyard while eliminating the common chore of staining or painting required of similar wood products.

Veranda retails exclusively at The Home Depot for less than $2.00 per lineal foot decking and is backed by a 15 year limited warranty. For more information consumers can log onto www.verandainfo.com.
