Composite and Wood Decks Built for Kansas City Weather
At Safe Harbor Exteriors, we build decks that can handle everything the Midwest climate throws their way. We offer two types of decking options, each with its own appeal and advantages:
Composite Deck Installation
Composite decking is an increasingly popular choice for Kansas City homeowners who want the beauty of wood without the ongoing upkeep. Made from a blend of recycled wood fibers and durable polymers, composite decks from TimberTech and Fiberon offer a wide range of colors, textures, and finishes that mimic natural wood.
These materials resist fading, splintering, and warping, even under the intense sun or heavy rain common in the region. With composite decking, you’ll enjoy a stunning, low-maintenance outdoor space that’s built to look great for decades.
Wood Deck Installation
For homeowners who love the timeless warmth and character of real wood, our wood deck installations are an excellent choice. Natural wood brings a classic beauty that never goes out of style. It can be stained in a wide variety of shades to match your home’s look and refreshed over time if you’d like a new color or finish.
Our team uses high-quality wood materials to create decks that blend seamlessly with Kansas City’s outdoor landscapes, offering an authentic and inviting atmosphere.
Low-Maintenance Composite Decking from Top-Rated Brands
Composite decking captures all the beauty of traditional wood decking without the high-maintenance upkeep and deterioration from the elements.
Safe Harbor Exteriors offers several top-rated brands of composite decking. Since we think pushy salespeople are the worst, we strive to give you a no-pressure sales experience and answer all your questions, so you can make the right decision for your home and budget.
Fiberon
Fiberon® decking delivers the warmth and beauty of natural wood with enduring performance and minimal upkeep. Choose from collections like Concordia™, Sanctuary®, and Promenade to achieve the perfect blend of style, durability, and value—from 25-year warranties on entry-level composite to lifetime structural and 50-year fade & stain guarantees on top-tier PVC and Concordia lines. Backed by sustainable manufacturing and reliable installation support, Fiberon stands behind its products for decades.
TimberTech Decking
TimberTech® uses industry-leading technology to create composite decking with enduring beauty and realistic grain patterns, colors, and finishes that perfectly mimic natural wood.
TimberTech offers three unique decking lines—TimberTech Azek®, TimberTech Pro®, and TimberTech Edge®—so you can find the perfect blend of beauty, durability, and value for your deck.

What Type of Deck Is Right for Your Kansas City Home?
Choosing between wood and composite decking can be tricky, especially when both materials offer unique benefits. The right choice depends on your home, your lifestyle, and how you plan to use your outdoor space.
Broadly speaking, composite decking might be the better fit if:
You want a low-maintenance deck that doesn’t require yearly staining or sealing.
You prefer consistent color and texture that stays uniform over time.
You’re looking for long-term durability that resists fading, cracking, and rot.
You’d like a modern look with a variety of design options.
You want a deck that performs well in Kansas City’s variable weather.
You’d rather spend weekends relaxing, not maintaining your deck.
On the other hand, wood decking might be the better choice for your home if:
You love the natural look and feel of real wood grain.
You want the freedom to change the color of your deck every few years with a new stain.
You’re looking for a cost-effective option for your initial installation.
You prefer a material that’s easy to repair or refinish if it gets scratched or worn.
You value authenticity and tradition, especially for historic or craftsman-style homes.
You enjoy a hands-on approach to home maintenance and seasonal upkeep.
If you’re still not sure which material is right for your project, don’t worry - our team is happy to help. We’ll walk you through your options, explain what to expect from each material, and help you choose the one that best fits your goals, budget, and design vision.

Reviews
We talked to multiple companies while deciding who to use for the exterior of our home. Safe Harbor was transparent, fast, and offered James Hardie siding compared to all the other companies only offering vinyl. Safe Harbor was much more affordable than many of the other companies, who just wanted as much money as possible. We are extremely happy with our siding, soffit, fascia, flashing, gutters, windows and the guarantee that comes with their work. If there was any more work to be performed, without a doubt, we would chose safe Harbor again.
Safe Harbor installed James Hardie siding, soffits, and gutters. The install was meticulous and our home was left cleaner than when the company showed up. The level of detail in the install was beyond expectation! We are so pleased with the quality of the work and the professionalism of the install team!
