Default Deck lumber recommendations

Boy, I'd sure consider the composite. Maintenance free, particularly if you
don't want to finish it every few years.


I pressure wash my composite deck once a year, which brings it back to
looking brand new. The framing is ground contact rated treated wood,
even though it sits on concrete, and the fasteners are stainless steel.
Replacing a deck once was enough. This one is going to last longer than
I will.
