Wooden decking is an increasingly popular choice for providing outdoor seating areas in gardens. Because of the natural beauty of wood, they can be very elegant spaces which you can use year round by installing additional heating and lighting. Wooden decking is commonly fitted in locations in front of patio or French doors where they can create a seamless transition between inside and outside spaces. Wooden decking is available in any size or shape to suit any area. Curved designs or large areas connected by pathways can create an impressive effect. Wooden decking is fairly easy to install and causes minimal disruption, particularly when compared to alternatives like patio or paving. It could even be installed over the top of an existing patio. It is crucial however to be certain that your wooden decking is structurally sound and able to take the load of any furniture or plants that you want to use on the decking. There is a range of species of wood that can be used in wooden decking. Typically decking is constructed from hardwood, but there are softwoods available that fulfil the durability requirements. As hardwood decking will demand maintenance, which typically consists of yearly cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods are becoming more popular for use in wooden decking because they are more robust and require far 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

East Cowes is a town and also civil parish to the north of the Isle of Wight, on the eastern bank of the River Medina alongside its neighbour on the west bank, Cowes. The two towns are linked by the Cowes Drifting Bridge, a chain ferryboat operated by the Isle of Wight Council. East Cowes is the site of Norris Castle, and Osborne House, the previous summer residence of Queen Victoria and also Prince Albert. The Prince had a major impact on the architecture of the location, for example on the structure of St Mildred's Church in close-by Whippingham, which includes distinct turrets mimicing those discovered on a German castle.

Yes, although you should make sure that the terrace or decking is able to support the weight of a hot tub. Usually, you will need to have a structural survey carried out on the area. Seek the advise of a hot tub retailer or installer about the logistics of installing one at your property.
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.
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.
