Decking

Decking are one of the best ways to create an amazing outdoor space to relax or entertain in your garden.

Having a well-designed deck is a way to connect the indoor and outdoor space of your home. Whether your garden is, a country garden, small garden in town or compact terrace, you’ll want to get the most from your garden decking, so let us help you transform it into a practical and stylish spot for entertaining, dining, or simply just relaxing.

There are many options when it comes to decking structures. We’re going to run through the three most popular ones:

Raised Decking

Raised deck is a great way to make the most of the space that can otherwise go unused such as slopes and uneven areas, creating a level space for entertaining, eating al fresco, or just sitting out and enjoying the sunshine.

Levelling Sloping Gardens

Decking on multiple levels is the first choice for most people but can cost a large sum to have to privilege. This style of decking has the ability to completely transform a garden into a perfect place to host, entertain or relax on a summer day. A brilliant idea for this decking is to have different purposed for different levels; perhaps comfortable seating on one level and a barbeque or hot tub on another. If you are planning on having the latter of those items make sure your decking is supported well enough to carry the heavyweight.

Ground level Decking

The most common level of decking is, of course, ground level as it is the least complex to build and least expensive. That doesn’t mean it isn’t a great addition to your garden and a different way to go for garden entertaining as opposed to a patio

This type of installation is the most common type that we carry out.

Decking Features

Complete your deck with these decking features:

Lighting your deck

Lighting can add a real ‘wow’ factor to your structure & is especially useful if you plan on using your new decking during evenings.

•  Floor Lights,  many retailers offer lights which can be built into the decking boards themselves.
• Post Lights,  available in a variety of styles. Solar-powered lights are also practical & eco-friendly – avoiding the need to wire-up your decking.
• Wall Lights,  these are lights which are built into the wall above your decking & are often triggered by movement sensors.

”lighting is highly recommended for visual appeal and can also help to make your home and garden a much safer place”

Handrails

Decking handrails (also commonly known as balustrades) are useful for both aesthetic & practical purposes. For children & the elderly (who may be unstable underfoot) they are essential for safety on any high structures.

Seating

Decks are excellent for entertaining guests.  However, they will all need somewhere to sit! Most people will utilise portable chairs and tables which can look great – but for those who want to add something special to their structure; built-in seating can look fantastic & is incredibly practical.
