Garden decking can add value and beauty to your home. Here
are the different types of decking that you can use for your garden deck:
Ø Timber Decking
The most popular and traditional material
used for garden decking is wood. It tends to be our first port of call when it
comes to decking. The common types of wood used for timber decking are oak, ipe, teak and iroko. Timber is durable and aesthetically
pleasing.
Use oil, paint, preservatives or stain to
prolong the life span of your timber deck. Oil is said to be the best option
since it enhances the natural beauty of the timber and it protects the wood
from the many elements.
Ø Composite Decking
Composite is a great alternative to wood
but it is not a natural product. Composite is made up of wood fibre and plastic
that is combined to create a plank. It doesn’t expand or contract with changes
in moisture and temperature. That means it will not easily crack, warp or split
compared to solid wood.
Ø PVC Decking
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) is one of the most
produced plastics in the world. It is a versatile product that is known for its
strength and adaptability. People choose PVC decking because it is low
maintenance.
Ø Aluminium Decking
Aluminium decking is the cutting edge decking
option because it is maintenance-free. Also, it is well suited to a cutting
edge decking project. It is a relatively new addition to the UK decking
options. However, aluminium decking is not that easy to incorporate into a
classic decking project.
Above all the options, most people consider wood to be the best
material for decking. Timber is easy to maintain, eco-friendly and highly
durable. Therefore, a timber deck will definitely add value to your home.
