Types of Decking Flooring

When it comes to decking flooring, there are several types to choose from, each with its own unique features and benefits. Wood decking is a popular choice known for its natural beauty and warmth. Options like cedar, redwood, and tropical hardwoods offer durability and resistance to decay. They can be stained or left to age naturally, giving your deck a timeless look. Composite decking is a blend of wood fibres and recycled plastic. It offers the appearance of wood without the maintenance. Composite decking is resistant to fading, staining, and rot, making it a low-maintenance option that withstands the elements. PVC decking is made from 100% synthetic materials, providing exceptional durability and resistance to moisture, mould, and insects. PVC decking requires minimal maintenance, as it doesn't require staining or sealing. It comes in a variety of colours and styles to suit your preferences.

Advantages of Decking Flooring

Enhanced Aesthetics: Decking flooring adds beauty and elegance to any outdoor area. With a wide range of materials, colours, and styles available, you can create a customised deck that complements your home and personal style.

Increased Outdoor Living Space: A deck provides an additional area for relaxation, entertainment, and gatherings. It expands your usable living space, allowing you to enjoy the outdoors comfortably.

Durability: Decking materials such as composite, PVC, and certain types of wood are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, UV rays, and heavy foot traffic. They are resistant to rot, decay, and insect damage, ensuring the longevity of your deck.

Low Maintenance: Unlike traditional wood decks that require regular staining and sealing, many decking materials are low maintenance. They resist staining, fading, and warping, saving you time and effort in upkeep.

Safety: Decking flooring can be designed with safety features such as non-slip surfaces and sturdy railings, providing a secure environment for family members and guests.
