Practically indestructible decking

Like other fiber cement products like siding and trim, PlyCem's CemDeck decking boards are fireproof and impervious to rot and insects. Composed largely of Portland cement and cellulose from recycled cardboard, they're also highly resistant to weather, impact and mold.

CemDeck deck boards are 12 ft. long and currently available in cedar-grained brown. There are two types of planks for two types of fastening options: a slotted edge version to receive hidden fasteners and a rounded edge for exposed deck screws.
Expect to pay about $2.70 per linear foot. Matching fascia is also available for stair risers and finishing off deck rim joists.

CemDeck is a brand new material, so it won't be widely available for a while. But if you're interested in using fiber cement decking down the road, maybe even later this year, check it out at architecturalproducts.com/plycem.
