Composite Decking and local data in Bucks County

About 78 wet days and 85 freeze-thaw days a year make moisture-resistant capped boards a practical advantage over unsealed wood.
With 66% detached homes, many projects in Bucks County's covered ZIP codes re-deck an existing frame, so joist spacing must be checked against the board's span rating first.
