Wooden decking is an increasingly fashionable choice for providing outdoor seating areas in gardens. Due to the natural beauty of wood, they can be very beautiful areas which you can use year round with the help of external heating and lighting. Wooden decking is typically fitted in locations in front of patio or French doors where they can create a smooth transition between interior and exterior spaces. Wooden decking is available in virtually any size or shape to accommodate any area. Curved designs or large areas linked by pathways can produce a stunning effect. Wooden decking is reasonably quick to install and causes little disruption, particularly when compared to alternate options like patio or paving. It could even be installed over the top of a pre-existing patio. It is critical however to be sure that your wooden decking is structurally sound and capable of taking the weight of any furniture or plants that you would like to use on the decking. There is a selection of types of wood that can be used in wooden decking. Usually decking is made of hardwood, but there are softwoods available that fulfil the durability requirements. As hardwood decking will demand maintenance, which usually entails annual cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods have become popular for use in wooden decking as they are more robust and require much less maintenance.
The typical cost of Wooden decking is £1500. Costs can change based upon the materials and the firm hired. The upper price range can be as high as £1725. The material costs are commonly approximately £375

Armagh is the county town of County Armagh in Northern Ireland. It is the ecclesiastical capital of Ireland-- the seat of the Archbishops of Armagh, the Primates of All Ireland for both the Roman Catholic Church and the Church of Ireland. In the early period, the town and its neighbouring Navan Fort, Eamhain Mhacha, was among the famous royal capitals of pagan Gaelic Ireland. Despite being categorised as a medium-sized town, Armagh was bestowed city status in 1994 and Lord Mayoralty status in 2012, both by Queen Elizabeth II. As per the permanent resident population of 14,749 individuals recorded at the time of the 2011 Census, it is the least populated city in Northern Ireland and also the fourth smallest in the UK. Armagh has long been a centre of learning, and is often described as 'the city of saints and scholars'. The academic custom continued over the centuries, with the establishment of the Royal School in 1608 and the Armagh Observatory in 1790 as vivid signs of this well-known reputation. To deal with the problem of a decreasing city centre and to deal with the issues of local individuals, Armagh City and District Council chose to upgrade the surfaces and overall visual appeal of the primary shopping locations. It will restore the centre of Armagh, transforming it into a high-quality pedestrianised environment. In addition to new street layouts, the look of the city centre is intended to be complemented by updated lighting, paving, seating, bins and greenery. For all of your house renovations, make sure to work with trustworthy experts in Armagh to make certain of quality.

Properly installed wooden decking will not need a lot of maintenance. Most manufacturers recommend regularly brushing leaves and dirt off the deck, and a yearly cleaning and staining procedure. This will keep the wood in the best condition. Fluids and treatments are readily available from all DIY shops and stores.
If your deck isn’t going to be flat to the ground, it’s a good idea to have some kind of balustrade to avoid any tripping. If the gap between the deck and the ground is less than 600mm, use a 900mm balustrade. If it’s higher than 600mm, the balustrade should be 1100mm tall.
Usually, slipperiness is caused by algae or dirt on top of the deck or terrace. A full cleaning treatment should restore the natural grip of the wood or stone. If slipperiness is a persistent problem, consider installing grip mats in high traffic areas of the deck.
