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 beautiful spaces which you can use year round with the help of external heating and illumination. Wooden decking is usually fitted in locations in front of patio or French doors where they can create a seamless transition between inside and outside spaces. Wooden decking can come in virtually any size or shape to complement any area. Curved designs or large areas joined by pathways can create a striking effect. Wooden decking is reasonably simple to install and causes minimal disruption, especially when compared to alternatives like patio or paving. It could even be installed over the top of a pre-existing patio. It is necessary however to make certain 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 array of species of wood that can be used in wooden decking. Typically decking is made of hardwood, but there are softwoods available that fulfil the durability specifications. As hardwood decking will require maintenance, which commonly consists of yearly cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods are becoming popular for use in wooden decking because they are more robust and require significantly 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

Looe is a tiny seaside community, fishing port as well as civil parish in south-east Cornwall, England, with a population of 5,280 at the 2011 census. Looe is 20 miles (32 kilometres) west of Plymouth and 7 miles (11 km) south of Liskeard, divided in two by the River Looe, East Looe as well as West Looe being attached by a bridge. Looe developed as two separate towns each with MPs and its own mayor. The community centres around a small harbour and also along the steep-sided valley of the River Looe which flows between East and West Looe to the sea beside a sandy beach. Offshore to the west, opposite the stonier Hannafore Beach, lies Looe Island. Looe remains a fishing town, and kept numerous fish suppliers operating from the East Looe quayside up until the development of EU policies. With its fleet of small fishing boats returning their catches to port daily, Looe has a credibility for obtaining excellent fresh fish. The town is likewise a centre for shark angling, and also is residence to the Shark Angling Club of Great Britain. Nevertheless, Looe's main business today is tourism, with much of the community given over to resorts, bed and breakfast as well as vacation homes, in addition to a lot of bars, dining establishments and beach tools, ice cream and also Cornish pasty suppliers. Inland from Looe exist lots of outdoor camping and caravan websites, in addition to the famous Woolly Monkey Sanctuary. Other neighborhood tourist attractions include the coastlines, cruising, angling as well as diving, as well as incredible coastal strolls (particularly via Talland to Polperro). South East Cornwall boasts numerous stately homes, including Antony Residence, Cotehele, Mount Edgcumbe as well as Lanhydrock House, along with the Eden Project near St Austell which vacationers can access by road.

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.
