Timber - the ideal decking material
Timber is ideal for outdoor decking: it has inherent warmth and beauty which complements its surroundings; it's a versatile construction material which can be easily re-worked; and it is sustainable and recyclable, making it great for the environment.
Timber also works well alongside other landscaping materials and offers scope and design flexibility. It allows you to create unique outdoor spaces – ideal for both private and public areas.
Decking is frequently used as an entrance to the home or garden patio, helping to connect outdoor and indoor living spaces. Decking is a particularly good solution for sloping sites – providing an easy and effective transition between differing levels. It’s also great for transforming a quiet corner of the garden into a haven, on rooftops or boardwalks and is the perfect partner to pool or spa side – adding slip resistance measures if required.
