Hello,
I am currently building a house and would like some guidance on material to be used for the flooring of a sala and potentially exterior walkways. The flooring will be exposed to the weather and must tolerate rain as well as heat.
While good wood would be a good solution, wood such as teak is very expensive as I have found out. So, I started looking at alternatives and have found a few.
- From HomePro - they offer a fake wood plastic product that looks like wood and they claim can be used outdoors without any issues.
- From SCG - they offer the SCG deck system - I think is a fiber cement plank that also looks like wood and they also claim can be used outdoors.
- and then there are companies that offer wood such as treated pine etc which are more expensive.
For cost reasons, I am looking more at either the HomePro or SCG solutions.
Would appreciate guidance from anyone that may have used either of these products and can advise me on what the best product would be ? Or alternatively, suggest any other alternatives.
Thank you in advance for your help.
