The WeatherBest® Difference
From extravagant to simple, WeatherBest composite decking is the right choice, no matter how you imagine your deck. WeatherBest decking is easy to mistake for the real thing. All the look, feel, and beauty of natural wood, but with none of the maintenance. WeatherBest stays straight and true, never twisted or crooked. It cuts, drills and installs like wood, can go around radius curves and is resistant to warping, splitting and splintering.

WeatherBest composite decking is textured and embossed to look like real wood, but it offers a feature you won't find in any traditional wood product: Low maintenance. Any wood deck requires an ongoing investment, but with WeatherBest products, there's no staining, no sealing and no painting. WeatherBest decking and railing can be used to build a deck with style and strength you can enjoy for years.

Product Quality
Our products are made from a high quality composite that gives you the distinct look and feel of natural wood, with low maintenance. The WeatherBest decking is made from wood flour mixed with High Density Polyethylene plastic and additives which are extruded under high pressure and heat. Surfaces are then brushed or embossed onto boards for the natural look of wood. The special formulation includes zinc borates to protect against fungal decay. It also inhibits the growth of mold.

That means you can build your own backyard retreat with all of the qualities you love about traditional wood decks, but avoid the many of the hassles of having to maintain one.

WeatherBest® Composite Decking
comes ready-to-install with pre-grooved boards that accommodate hidden fasteners.

Many homeowners want an unobstructed look to their finished decking boards. So WeatherBest can be installed easily using the Phantom hidden fastening systems. The fasteners are inserted between WeatherBest deck boards, then screwed down to the joists below. Not only is the decking held in place horizontally by each individual board for added structural strength, the screws are invisible, snug to the substructure, hidden by the boards above them.

Two WeatherBest Decking Products
WeatherBest Premium Grain and Tropical Grain decking looks and feels like real wood, but with little of the maintenance. Discover wood-like natural colors and grain patterns in our Premium Grain line, while Tropical Grain brings the unique look of interior exotic, tropical hardwood floors to your decking outdoors.

WeatherBest Premium Grain Decking
Premium Grains For A Premium Look
WeatherBest Premium Grains offer you four composite decking wood-grain colors that each come alive in two ways, thanks to reversible boards. And because our decking materials resist cracking, splintering and decay, you'll never have to sand, stain or seal it.

Each eye-catching, Premium Grain color offers an authentic, wood-like look. Plus, each board is reversible to suit your particular deck design. On one side, our “rough sawn” process creates a natural wood grain texture and blends color with subtle grain patterns to complete the wood-like appearance. On the other side, we've designed a smooth, non-raised, straight-grain appearance that emphasizes and enlivens color for a smooth, refined look.

WeatherBest Premium Grain decking is available in .910” x 5.40” planks
in lengths of 12', 16' and 20'.

Whichever style you choose, WeatherBest Premium Grain decking complements your home with any one of our four beautiful shades: Western Redwood, Sandalwood, Driftwood Grey and Tuscan Walnut.

WeatherBest Tropical Grain Decking
Two Tropical Colors for a One-of-a-Kind Look
WeatherBest Tropical colors provide a hardwood-like surface to both sides of each board to mimic the exotic multi-chromatic surfaces found in rare tropical species. And there's nothing to sand, stain or seal.

Each nature inspired Tropical color brings the rich, hardwood look of exotic, tropical wood species, with enduring, better-than-wood beauty. Each color mimics the iridescent, multi-toned appearance of these special woods. But, you won't have to worry about the extensive upkeep common with these special woods. And, unlike natural wood, these boards won't go grey with time!

With WeatherBest, both sides of each Tropical plank present a smooth, uniform surface with a controlled pattern of varied tones to give each board a unique look. WeatherBest Tropical decking gives you head-turning results without the care required by temperamental natural hardwood.

WeatherBest Tropical Grain decking
is available in .918" x 5" planks.

WeatherBest Easy Deck Care
Install WeatherBest and you eliminate the worry, expense and headaches from caring for aging wood decks. With minimal maintenance, you can avoid wood's drawbacks and enjoy your deck year in, year out.

Just Rinse with a Hose.
A simple garden hose will wash away dirt build-up. And a stiff broom will remove most large debris.

Deal with stains promptly. Don't allow them to penetrate the surface or bake in the sun. To clean a grease or oil stain, use any common household-degreasing agent. To clean mold or mildew, use a deck cleaner containing sodium hypochlorite.

Space Boards
When installing WeatherBest composite decking, be sure the boards are properly gapped (3/16'' apart). This will allow water to drain from the deck surface. That will help prevent pooling water where mold and mildew can grow.
