Am renovating our dock and am considering different decking materials. Would appreciate any recommendations based on users experience after a couple of yrs.of ware. We are considering natural treated wood, composite, and exotic. I've had experience with wood, and understand the maintenance issues. Have researched composite and exotic wood(ipe, tiger wood, etc)and have a very general understanding of the cost/benefits. From what I've read, composite can have long term issues with decomposition, mildew and staining; however, I can find owners who swear by its maintenance features. I would appreciate any advice/recommendations from the practical experience of other Lake Martin owners. Thank you
