Wooden Decking in Strathcarron
Wooden decking is an increasingly common option 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 by using additional 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 linked by pathways can produce a striking effect. Wooden decking is relatively quick to install and causes little disruption, especially when compared to alternatives like patio or paving. It can even be installed over the top of an existing patio. It is important however to be certain 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 array of varieties of wood that can be used in wooden decking. Often decking is constructed from hardwood, but there are softwoods available that fulfil the durability specifications. As hardwood decking will demand maintenance, which usually will involve 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 much less maintenance.
