The resins protect the wood from insect and moisture damage, while the wood protects the resin fro}m UV damage and adds stability. Additional protection from the sun will be gained by the later addition of a Deck Canopy or Awning. In the decking material decision maintenance is another key factor. Some homeowners may opt for pressure-treated Wood that they can stain to a colour of their liking and seal.
