Wooden decking is an increasingly popular option for providing outdoor seating areas in gardens. Due to the natural beauty of wood, they can be very beautiful spaces which you can use year round with the addition of outside heating and light. Wooden decking is commonly fitted 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 any size or shape to fit any area. Curved designs or large areas connected by pathways can produce an attractive effect. Wooden decking is relatively easy to install and causes minimal disruption, especially when compared to other possibilities like patio or paving. It could even be installed over the top of a pre-existing patio. It is important however to make sure that your wooden decking is structurally sound and able to take the weight of any furniture or plants that you would like to use on the decking. There is a collection of varieties of wood that can be used in wooden decking. Usually decking is made of hardwood, but there are softwoods available that fulfil the durability specifications. As hardwood decking will demand maintenance, which usually involves yearly cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods have become popular for use in wooden decking as they are stronger 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

Lewes is the county town of the administrative county of East Sussex in England. It is a civil parish and it is the centre of the Lewes local government district. According to the 2001 Census, it has a population of around 15988 and an area of 4.4 square miles. Generally, the town has been identified as a bridging point and a market town, and it is mainly considered as a communications and tourist-oriented town in the present day thanks to the countless historical monuments. The historic pattern of the streets continues to exist, including a significant range of mediaeval structure plots and oak framed homes, such as The Fifteenth Century Bookshop located on the High Street. The service industries are the biggest companies to a considerable level, with over 60 per cent of the population employed in that sector in 2001. That being said, the town continues to be celebrated as one of England's finest manufacturers of ale, with beers, wines and spirits continuing to be distributed from Lewes under the 'Harveys' name ever since 1794. An occasion with particular significance for the town is the Lewes Bonfire celebrations occurring on Fifth November, Guy Fawkes Night. Not only does this remember the date of the uncovering of the Gunpowder Plot in 1605, the date is also important for the town as a commemoration for the 17 Protestant martyrs burnt at the stake for their faith amid the Marian Persecutions. The contentious celebration which comprises the burning of an effigy of Pope Paul V, the pope during the time of the martyrdoms, are the most significant and most popular bonfire night celebrations in England. For all of your home upgrades, make sure to make use of credible professionals in Lewes 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.
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.
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.
