Wooden Decking in Inner Hebrides
Wooden decking is an increasingly fashionable option for creating outdoor seating areas in gardens. Because of the natural beauty of wood, they can be very beautiful spaces which you can use year round by using outside heating and light. Wooden decking is generally fitted in locations in front of patio or French doors where they can create a smooth transition between inside and outside spaces. Wooden decking can come in any size or shape to accommodate any area. Curved designs or large areas joined by pathways can create an impressive effect. Wooden decking is reasonably simple to install and causes minimal disruption, particularly in comparison to other possibilities like patio or paving. It could even be installed over the top of an existing patio. It is necessary however to make sure that your wooden decking is structurally sound and capable of taking the load of any furniture or plants that you would like to use on the decking. There is a collection 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 require maintenance, which usually includes annual cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods have become popular for use in wooden decking because they are stronger and require significantly less maintenance.
