In 1986, Bon Jovi released the album Slippery When Wet, giving the world karaoke classics like “Livin’ On a Prayer”, “Wanted Dead or Alive” and “You Give Love a Bad Name”.
Sadly, the term “slippery when wet” is far less fun and infinitely less awesome when applied to the world of decking surfaces.
Luckily, AlfrescoPlus has laid that fear to rest with composite decking that’ll leave you rocking and rolling whatever the weather.
Non-Slip Decking
Before we go any further, we want to be up front and honest here – there’s no such thing as 100% non-slip decking. No matter how much we’d love to say there is, slip-free decking just doesn’t exist and any company that promotes their products as such is setting you up for a fall…quite literally.
However, when it comes to damage limitation, our slip-resistant composite decking options are as good as it gets. Our quick drying decking boards are specifically designed to take in minimal moisture, painstakingly engineered to absorb less than 1.2%, ensuring our decking is as water-proof as possible.
In fact, after a spell of rain, your deck can be completely dry within 30 minutes. As such, our composite decking is the ideal all-weather surface for the British climate, while also making it the perfect flooring option for use around pools and hot tubs.
Why choose composite decking?
When it comes to water-resistant decking, there’s no contest between genuine wood and composite decking – it’s composite decking all the way. Genuine wood decking is extremely absorptive which makes them problematic when wet.
Worse still, the natural grooves in real wood decking act as a bona fide ice tray in cold weather. These grooves fill up with rain water, freeze and expand, turning your decking into a veritable home ice rink.
What’s more, jet washing – the most common and popular way to clean wood decking – actually opens up the grooves even further, making the boards even more susceptible to water absorption and more slippery by proxy.
