Wooden decking is an increasingly fashionable choice for providing outdoor seating areas in gardens. Because of the natural beauty of wood, they can be very elegant spaces which can be used year round by adding outside heating and illumination. Wooden decking is usually installed in locations in front of patio or French doors where they can create a seamless transition between interior and exterior spaces. Wooden decking can come in virtually any size or shape to match any area. Curved designs or large areas linked by pathways can create an impressive effect. Wooden decking is reasonably simple to install and causes little disruption, especially when compared to alternate options like patio or paving. It could even be installed over the top of an existing patio. It is vital however to make certain that your wooden decking is structurally sound and capable of taking the weight of any furniture or plants that you want to use on the decking. There is a collection of species of wood that can be used in wooden decking. Usually decking is constructed from hardwood, but there are softwoods available that fulfil the durability requirements. As hardwood decking will demand maintenance, which typically includes annual cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods have become more 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

Etchingham (population 806) is a village as well as civil parish in the Rother district of East Sussex in southerly England. The village lies approximately 15 miles (24 kilometres) southeast of Royal Tunbridge Wells in Kent as well as 13 miles (21 kilometres) northwest of Hastings, on the A265, half a mile west of its junction with the A21. Etchingham railway station gets on the Hastings Line to London Charing Cross as well as Cannon Street. Etchingham was an estate a long time prior to the Norman occupation of 1066; after this time the manor was taken control of by the Normans. In 1166 it was entrusted to the de Achyngham (Etchingham) family, who were well-known landowners of the moment. The Etchingham family members documents document that William was so delighted with his right-hand man that he gave him the land currently referred to as Etchingham. The moated manor house, long since destroyed, stood at the point now inhabited by the London to Hastings train line. A few of the stone from the estate was possibly made use of in the building of the terminal structures. There is one legend that a wonderful bell lay at the bottom of the moat bordering the church and estate, and that it would certainly never be seen up until 6 yoke of white oxen were brought to drag it up. Centuries have gone by, the moat is long gone and no bell has actually emerged. The 14th-century church was originally constructed within the grounds of the estate; proof of the moat can still be seen.

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.
