Azek decking is one of the favourite decking choices among customers in Ontario. Known as ‘Timbertech Azek’, Azek’s industry-leading decking is made from 100% premium capped polymer.
For a decking masterpiece on a budget, Azek Harvest Collection is the way to go. It has a traditional cathedral wood grain pattern mimicking flat-cut boards of timber, and a monochromatic, solid colour palette which gives a painted wood appearance. Available colours are Slate Grey, Brownstone, and Kona.
Known as the ‘designer series’, Azek TimberTech Vintage is the top-of-the-range collection. Its boards merge sophisticated capped polymer technology with multi-colour blending, subtle highlights and lowlights, and a wire-brushed, low-gloss finish for that authentic wood appearance. Five muted, natural colours make up the Vintage line-up: Coastline, Weathered Teak, Dark Hickory, English Walnut, and Mahogany.
Arbor is Azek’s mid-range collection. Its boards combine cathedral wood grain and straight wood grain patterns, mirroring the varied textures found in nature. Arbor decking is available in several natural colours which are moderately blended to create a realistic wood-tone finish. These include Brazilian Walnut, Morado, Island Oak, Autumn Chestnut, Silver Oak, Hazelwood, and Mountain Redwood.
Azek decking does not wrap. It is a 100% plastic product and you can install wider boards and they will not wrap. It also does not absorb any moisture. Azek will expand and contract with temperature changes, but other than that you can expect this material to be very stable in the outdoor environment.
Yes, Azek contracts with temperature changes. When installing Azek decking in the winter – allow some gaps to allow the material to expand lengthwise. No need to worry about leaving gaps between the deck boards (width-wise) and not need to worry about leaving any gaps when installing on a hot summer day.
Yes, you can power wash Azek, but make sure you are not setting the powerwasher on a high pressure setting or holding it too close to the boards. The plastic decking is pretty soft and you do not want to damage it with high pressure. If possible test your power washer on a small Azek decking offcut before washing the entire deck to determine the optimal pressure.
Azek costs more than composite decking because it is made with 100% PVC and does not contain wood fibers. The materials that go into manufacturing the Azek boards are more expensive to begin with. Azek is a publicly traded company so if you look at their financials you will see that they are investing heavily into their product. While composite decking is made with cheaper materials, for most clients and outdoor environments the performance of composite decking will be satisfactory and the extra cost of Azek decking not worth it. The main advantage of using the more expensive PVC materials in the composition of a deck board is that Azek does not heat up as much in the sun.
Scratches can be removed from Azek decking by holding a heat gun and “melting” the deck board around the scratch. Start from a distance and move the heat gun closer to the deck board until the scratch is gone. Some big scratches cannot be removed with this method. Azek decking also should not be sanded to remove the scratches.

Delta Decks did a beautiful job on our backyard deck and patio. Our old deck was in dire need of a rebuild and refresh. Elgi was great in getting the project started and Dimitri and his team were amazing to work with throughout the project. They were extremely customer focused and detail oriented, even suggesting improvements that we had not considered. I would highly recommend this company.

Delta Decks replaced my very worn old wood deck with a mineral based/pvc ‘Deckorators’ product, color ‘Costa’. Finding a taupe color was a challenge but this came close to the rest of the wood decks I still have and I did not like the grays of most other products. They did an excellent job.

I am very satisfied with the improvements that Delta Decks made to my 12 year old deck. From my first contact with Elgi, the project manager ,to the final clean up of the jobsite I could not ask for better treatment. All my pre job questions were thoroughly answered and the advice given improved the final look of my deck. The 3 man job crew was terrific. Each of them was very professional and very conscientious. They made me feel that they wanted me to be very satisfied with their work. They answered any questions I had and they did a very good job of cleaning up before they left. A job well done.

This review has been a long time coming. We had Elgi and team come in on September 2021 and after some talks about designs and materials we ended up going with a Fiberon deck. His crew was polite, neat and worked very quickly. The deck looks beautiful and the lighting on the stairs really compliments the design. Thanks so much Elgi & team, It was a pleasure working with you!
