The wood is saturated with the fiberglass mixture and allowed to cure, creating a more durable surface. Fiberglass can easily take any shape using heat or pressure and finds its application in many industries. You can use fiberglass as a replacement for wood in any area where you need firm support: decks, patios, gazebos, and more. Fiberglass comes in various colors designed specifically for outdoor use. If you want a long-lasting deck without needing to replace it, fiberglass may be the perfect solution for your needs. Fiberglass is resistant to splitting and cracking. It also has better resistance to moisture, which means it won't rot or warp over time. Fiberglass decks are also easy to install, but it is paramount that you take the time to do it correctly through a fiberglass deck installer.
