Durable. Slip-resistant. Built to stand up to South Florida’s sun, salt, and splash.
As Broward and Palm Beach County’s waterfront deck specialists, Fort Decks & Outdoor builds with WearDeck to deliver strength you can rely on and comfort you can feel. This fiberglass-reinforced composite lumber handles Florida’s brutal sun, salt air, and high humidity without cracking, fading, or rotting. It’s the material we trust when building in environments where traditional decking materials break down.
Why Choose WearDeck
WearDeck outperforms wood and standard composites in every way that matters to homeowners near the water. Its unmatched strength, moisture resistance, and low-maintenance finish make it a practical long-term investment.
- 100% HDPE + Advantex Fiberglass Core for Unmatched Strength: WearDeck boards are made with high-density polyethylene and reinforced with Owens Corning’s Advantex fiberglass. This unique construction handles higher load capacities and provides long-term stability.
- Engineered for Ground Contact and Underwater Use: These boards are rated for installation in wet environments, including underwater. That makes them ideal for docks, piers, and any area with frequent moisture exposure.
- Lifetime Residential Warranty and 25-Year Commercial Protection: Homeowners get peace of mind with a warranty that covers fading, staining, and structural failure. Commercial projects also benefit from an industry-leading 25-year guarantee.
WearDeck Applications
WearDeck’s performance opens up a range of uses, from elegant backyard decks to hardworking commercial piers. Its clean, consistent look and structural stability make it a versatile building material for any outdoor space.
- Residential Decks: Great for lanais, pool surrounds, or rooftop terraces. Homeowners can enjoy a smooth, splinter-free surface without the maintenance headaches of traditional wood.
- Waterfront Docks & Piers: Built to withstand full submersion and daily water exposure. This marine-grade board holds up under constant wet conditions without losing structural integrity.
- Commercial & Municipal: WearDeck is trusted for boardwalks, marinas, restaurant patios, and high-traffic spaces. Its high load rating and long lifespan reduce the need for frequent repairs or replacements.
Built Tough for South Florida: Key Benefits of WearDeck Composite Decking
South Florida presents some of the harshest outdoor conditions, from unrelenting UV rays to high humidity and salt air. WearDeck is built to last in these environments, delivering long-term value and fewer maintenance headaches.
- Structural Strength: WearDeck boards are strong enough to span wider gaps without sagging or feeling soft underfoot. That extra strength gives you more design options, especially for raised decks, rooftop terraces, or anywhere you want a solid, stable surface.
- Extreme Durability: Mold, mildew, pests, and rot are no match for WearDeck’s dense composition and fiberglass core. Its UV protection prevents fading, even under constant sun exposure.
- Water-Resistant to the Core: WearDeck is rated for direct ground contact and full underwater use. It resists swelling, warping, and degradation, making it ideal for waterfront environments.
- Safe and Comfortable: Heat-reflective technology keeps the boards cooler underfoot, up to 30% cooler than traditional composites. The splinter-free, slip-resistant surface offers a safer and more comfortable experience for bare feet.
Built for the Elements in Broward and Palm Beach Counties
WearDeck is more than water-resistant: It’s made for South Florida’s unique mix of intense sun, salty air, and daily humidity. This is why we use it on everything from backyard decks to marine-grade docks.
- UV-Stable Finishes for Intense Sunshine: These boards resist fading, cracking, and brittleness caused by long-term sun exposure. They stay consistent in color and texture for years without refinishing.
- Handles Saltwater Submersion Without Rot or Swelling: Saltwater doesn’t break down the structure of WearDeck composite decking lumber like it does with traditional materials. That means less concern about soft spots, rot, or corrosion.
- Low Maintenance Lets You Enjoy the View: There’s no need for annual staining, sealing, or sanding. Just rinse with a hose or use light soap and water to keep it looking new.
