Deckorators new composite porch flooring is made with Eovations technology, which the company says creates a fiber-like core that is impervious to moisture (it’s the same manufacturing process used to make Deckorators Vault decking). The 3 1/8-inch-by-7/8-inch boards are available with both square-edged and tongue-and-groove profiles, and in three paint-like colors: chicory and macadamia (as shown in the photo), and in kettle (gray). The T&G boards come in 10-foot, 12-foot, and 16-foot lengths, while the square-edged decking is only available in 12-foot lengths. Deckorators has a comprehensive 25-year warranty that covers ground and water contact.

Deckorators has also added a 4-inch (3 1/2-inch-wide actual) option to its Vista line of wood-composite decking. The narrower decking could also be used for porch flooring, as well as in combination with standard 6-inch- wide boards to create alternative looks for breaker boards and picture-framed borders. Vista decking is available with both square and slotted edges (for hidden fasteners), in lengths up to 20 feet, and in three colors with the look of tropical hardwoods (ironwood, driftwood, and sandalwood).
