Composite decking is a low maintenance and durable solution which can give your garden a contemporary look and feel. Composite boards are typically made from a mix of recycled materials such as wood fibres and plastics, which is a great for eco-friendly projects and the process ensures that the boards are resistant to rot and warping too. It offers value for money and is our most popular style.

There aren’t many disadvantages to using composite decking however, it is the more expensive solution as the engineered composite offers increased durability and creates a solution which doesn’t succumb to weather and rot.

Composite decking is highly durable, lasting 15-20 years, if not longer. Unlike wood alternatives, composite solutions have reduced water absorption and are more resistant to rot, ensuring your decking stays safe and looking great for longer than wood alternatives.

Unlike wood, composite decking doesn’t need to be sealed or painted and generally has a longer life with minimal maintenance. Occasionally cleaning your decking with soap and water to remove build up of muck and grime, will help extend its life and keep it looking new.

Composite decking seems initially more expensive than wooden solutions, but whilst the cost may be higher upfront, it’s offset by the time you save and lower maintenance costs over its life.

Composite decking has a low water absorption rate meaning it is highly slip resistant. Regularly cleaning your deck will ensure it stays non-slip.

Wood decking is a classic and cost effective solution. Natural wood grain looks beautiful and using wood gives you huge flexibility in how your decking can be finished from sealant, to stain and paint.

Wooden decking requires regular maintenance and resealing in order to extend its life, keep it safe and looking great.

Wooden decking typically has a life span of around 10-15 years.  This can vary though depending on how much use your decking gets throughout the year as well as how regularly maintenance is carried out.

Wooden decking requires ongoing maintenance to retain its look and extend its life. Your deck should be resealed and re-stained if required every 1-3 years depending on how often it’s used and how exposed it is to the sun and elements.

Wooden decking is a more cost effective solution upfront when compared to composite decking, but you will need to consider the cost of regular maintenance that your wood deck will need to extend its life.
