Decking

Garden decking can transform outdoor spaces into inviting areas for relaxation and entertainment. To achieve a durable and aesthetically pleasing deck, it is essential to utilise proper installation techniques and maintain it effectively over time.

  1. Planning and Design:

    • We assess the area where the decking will be installed, considering factors such as sunlight exposure, view, and proximity to buildings or other structures.

    • Next, we create a design that includes dimensions, layout, and materials. It’s beneficial to sketch the design to visualise the final look.

  2. Selecting Materials:

    • Usually, the choice is between softwood and hardwood options. Softwoods (like treated pine) are cost-effective but may require more maintenance. Hardwoods (like teak or oak) are more durable but also more expensive.

    • Clients often consider composite decking, which blends wood and plastic for reduced maintenance and increased durability.

  3. Constructing a Frame:

    • We build a sturdy framework using pressure-treated timber ensuring it is correctly spaced to provide support.

  4. Finishing Touches:

    • We can add edging or decorative railings for safety - and style!

    • We can arrange LED lighting which can dramatically enhance the atmosphere of your decking, creating a warm and inviting space perfect for evening relaxation or entertaining guests.
