Composite Decking and local data in Franklin
Composite's main tradeoff is surface heat, and in Franklin sees about 45 days a year at 90°F or above. Lighter colors and heat-mitigating board lines are worth comparing.
About 85 wet days and 76 freeze-thaw days a year make moisture-resistant capped boards a practical advantage over unsealed wood.
With 68% detached homes, many projects in Franklin re-deck an existing frame, so joist spacing must be checked against the board's span rating first.
