Do You Want to Transform Your Existing Garden into the Garden of Your Dreams?

One of the easiest ways to transform your garden into an area the whole family can enjoy is to have decking installed.

Garden decking is perfect for lounging around on warm summer nights with family and friends.

You could also enjoy Alfresco dining instead of being cooked up in the house.

If your garden is uneven or sloped, having a part of it decked would give you a level surface for a barbecue and garden furniture.

Garden decking isn’t an expense; it’s an investment because it will only add value to your home.

 

Decking Options

There are several different types of decking available.

You can choose between hardwood, softwood, composite or millboard.

You also have to have to choose a colour, shape and style of finish.

If you are unsure about which type of decking you should choose, we are more than happy to offer advice and guidance.

We can walk you through the entire process and provide you with information on maintaining your newly decked area.

Once the installation is complete, we can apply a finish of your choice, such as varnish, a coloured stain or decking oil.

 

How do You Plan to use Your New Garden Decking?

The first question that needs answering is how you plan on using your decked area?

Would you like to use the area for sunbathing and relaxation?

If sunbathing on your new decking is a priority, you will need to take the sun’s position into account.

You will want to maximise the amount of sun exposure onto your new decked area.

If alfresco dining is something you’re passionate about, it would make sense to have easy access to the kitchen.

If you plan to use the decked area as a play area for children, safety is crucial.

It is highly advisable to have a nonslip surface and railings to minimise children’s chances of hurting themselves.

The planning phase of having garden decking installed is the most important.

You will need to consider ease of access, shade, sunlight, safety, positioning, drainage and maintenance.

 

Types of Garden Decking Materials

Hardwood: Although decking is available in several different types of materials, wood is the most popular by far. As with anything in life, you get what you pay for. Hardwood decking looks far superior to any other type of decking and lasts much longer, but it is also the most expensive.

Softwood: A cheaper alternative to hardwood decking is softwood decking. Softwood decking looks great after installation, but it requires a little more maintenance and won’t last as long as hardwood.

Millboard: this type of decking is made from a wood alternative. It looks just like wood, but it has a much longer shelf life and requires less maintenance.

Composite: Composite decking is made of plastic and wood shavings. It has a long life expectancy and requires very little maintenance. However, on close inspection, you can see it is made of plastic.

 

Garden Decking Design Ideas

You are only limited by your imagination when it comes to garden decking design ideas.

You can choose the size and the angles that the planks are laid.

This gives you virtually unlimited options with your creativity.

If you have trees in your garden, we can install decking around the trees.

If you would like sections cut out for planting, we can easily do that for you.

If safety is one of your primary concerns, we can build railings around your decked area.

If you would like your decking to be raised higher than the ground level, we can build easy access steps.

Multilevel decking might be of interest to you if you have a sloped garden.

You can take advantage of the multiple landscaping services we offer such as fencing, artificial grass, paving, garden walls, rockeries or even a pond!

Whatever ideas you have in mind, we can help you bring them to reality.

 

Garden Decking Maintenance

Maintenance for decking is relatively minimal.

Garden decking maintenance involves using a pressure washer to clean off the algae and moss.

Once the decked area has been cleaned with a pressure washer, it will need sanding and re-varnishing or oiling.

Before oiling or varnishing, it’s always a good idea to check if any of the screws need tightening to prevent them from squeaking.
