After 30 years of wear and tear, Karin Yaw’s old deck had become unsafe and unsightly. “The old deck was a disaster,” Karin recalls. “The wood was splintering and falling apart. I didn’t even feel safe walking on it."
Looking for a long-term solution, Karin knew composite decking was the way to go: low maintenance, high durability, and built to last far beyond wood. But finding a product that looked as good as it performed proved challenging—until she discovered Deckorators.
“I was shocked at how plastic other samples looked,” she says. “But when I saw Deckorators, I immediately loved it. It has the warmth and beauty of natural wood and gorgeous color variation. It looks real to me.”
Karin also appreciated that Deckorators deck boards are lighter in weight and designed with comfort in mind. “I learned it’s heat-resistant, which was a big concern,” she explains. “We have small dogs and grandkids, and I’m barefoot outside all the time. I’m not worried about splinters or hot surfaces.”
Now, her deck seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor living. “It’s like the outside is part of the inside—another room of the house,” Karin says. “Our neighbors can’t wait to get on it, and we know we’ll enjoy it with friends and family for years to come.”
Karin’s new deck is more than an upgrade; it’s the heart of her home’s outdoor space. With Deckorators, she gained the beauty she envisioned and the performance she needed—proof that the right decking can transform not just a backyard, but the way you live in it.
