Why Auburn Homeowners Choose PVC Decking
Cellular PVC decking (AZEK, TimberTech Azek, Versatex) is 100% synthetic — no wood fiber, no organic material for mold to colonize. In high-moisture environments like Mercer Island, Dash Point, and Lake Washington waterfront properties, PVC outperforms composite's 30-year warranty with a 50-year realistic lifespan and zero surface mold risk.
Pacific Northwest humidity, morning mist, and waterfront environments create conditions where composite's wood-fiber core can absorb moisture over time, leading to surface mold in lower-grade lines. PVC eliminates this variable entirely. It's not right for every site, but for waterfront properties, shaded low-drainage lots, and high-spec projects where material longevity is the priority, PVC is the correct answer.
