Composite Decking and local data in Puyallup
Composite's main tradeoff is surface heat, and in Puyallup sees about 3 days a year at 90°F or above. Color can be chosen mostly on looks, though full-sun decks still run cooler in lighter tones.
About 110 wet days and 58 freeze-thaw days a year make moisture-resistant capped boards a practical advantage over unsealed wood.
With 67% detached homes, many projects in Puyallup re-deck an existing frame, so joist spacing must be checked against the board's span rating first.
