When it comes time to replace or upgrade the benches on your pontoon boat, at first glance, many of the options on the market may seem similar.
At Canada Pontoon, the majority of the benches we sell and install are DeckMate benches—and that's no coincidence.
Here's why these benches clearly stand out from more traditional options.
Designed to last
Generally speaking, one of the biggest problems with pontoon benches is what you can't see: the internal wooden structure.
Over time, moisture, splashes, and temperature variations almost always cause the wood to swell, warp, rot, and promote mold growth.
DeckMate seats, on the other hand, are designed with an all-plastic structure. This means:
• No wood.
• No risk of rot.
• Significantly greater durability.
This is a huge advantage for a pontoon that is constantly exposed to a humid environment.
A warranty that speaks for itself
DeckMate offers a 6-year warranty, which is well above what you'll find on many standard benches on the market.
This warranty is a testament to:
• The quality of the materials;
• The strength of the structure;
• The manufacturer's confidence.
For pontoon boat owners, it also means peace of mind: you're investing in a product that's built to last for many seasons.
Less maintenance, more enjoyment
Thanks to their wood-free design, DeckMate benches are more resistant to moisture, less prone to mold, and retain their shape longer.
The result?
• Fewer repairs.
• Fewer premature replacements.
• More time to enjoy your pontoon boat.
An ideal solution for most pontoons
At Canada Pontoon, DeckMate benches are our top choice for pontoons, precisely because they are better suited to the realities of this type of boat.
Custom upholstery, on the other hand, is used more for other types of boats, where the structure and use differ.
For pontoon boats, DeckMate offers an excellent balance between durability, comfort, aesthetics, and longevity.
A thoughtful choice, supported by our team
Choosing the right benches isn't just about the product—it's also about the support.
At Canada Pontoon, we take the time to:
• Understand the current condition of your pontoon boat;
• Discuss how you use it (family, parties, relaxation, fishing, etc.);
• Guide you toward the most suitable solution.
Whether you want to delegate everything to our team or be involved in certain steps, we adapt to your project.
In summary
DeckMate benches stand out for:
• A 100% plastic structure (no wood)
• Superior durability
• A 6-year warranty
• Less long-term maintenance
• A choice perfectly suited to pontoons
If you're considering replacing the benches on your pontoon, it's an investment that's worth getting right the first time.
