Which option is more environmentally friendly: composite or natural wood finishes?

Natural wood finishes are biodegradable and can be sustainable if sourced responsibly, while composite finishes may incorporate recycled materials but can involve more complex manufacturing processes. It's essential to research the specific products for their environmental impact.

What are the main differences in durability between composite and natural wood finishes?

Composite finishes typically offer greater durability compared to natural wood finishes due to their resistance to rot, insects, and weathering. Natural wood, while aesthetically pleasing, requires more maintenance and is more susceptible to damage over time.

How often do I need to maintain natural wood finishes?

Natural wood finishes require periodic treatments and restoration to maintain their appearance and protect against the elements. This often includes re-staining or sealing every 1-3 years, depending on exposure to weather and wear.
