Composite Decking Design Overview:
- Two Tone Composite Raised Decking Installation
Our client wanted to breathe new life into their old patio, seeking an upgrade that would offer improved functionality, enhanced aesthetics and minimal maintenance.
We designed and installed a beautiful two-tone composite decking that not only extends the outdoor living space but also perfectly complements the surrounding environment.
The rich mocha and espresso composite deck blends seamlessly with the property, offering a stunning contrast while maintaining a harmonious connection with the natural landscape.
Taking a deeper look into this garden transformation...

Creating the idea for the deck
Given the raised nature of the house in relation to the garden, a raised deck was the clear solution here. The composite decking boards would create an amazing aesthetic that matches the surrounding landscape and property, and so we knew it would need a solid framework to match the 25-year guarantee of the boards.
We used UC4 pressure-treated wood for the joists (The most weather-resiliant timber available in the UK), and Millboard plas-pro recycled plastic posts for the in-ground posts.
This combination of materials creates a framework that we guarantee will stand strong for at least the next 15 years, or we'll come and repair it free of charge.
Premium Decking Boards
To align with the property's existing color palette and overall aesthetic, we opted for a two-tone composite decking design using mocha and espresso tones. The deep brown hues of the decking provide a warm, inviting atmosphere, making it an ideal space for both relaxation and entertainment.
These composite materials offer the added benefit of being low-maintenance and durable, ensuring the deck will look great and function beautifully for years to come.


The benefits of a raised decking design
The raised decking design allows for a seamless transition from the interior of the home to the lower-level garden. By elevating the deck, we created a smooth flow between the indoor and outdoor spaces, making it feel like a natural extension of the home. This approach is one of our favourite garden decking ideas, providing both practical access and enhanced visual appeal.
Why This Decking Design Stands Out: An Elevated Outdoor Living Experience
This project exemplifies how thoughtful composite decking designs can transform an outdoor space into a functional, aesthetically pleasing extension of the home. The raised decking seamlessly connects the property to the garden, while the two-tone composite decking in mocha and espresso adds a dynamic visual element that enhances the overall look.
The choice of composite decking was ideal for this client due to its durability, minimal maintenance, and resistance to weathering, rotting, and fading. This ensures that the deck will maintain its beauty without the need for constant upkeep, making it one of the most popular composite decking ideas for homeowners seeking both style and longevity.
By combining modern decking designs with practical features like the sleek balustrades, we created a cohesive, sophisticated look that elevates the entire outdoor space. Whether you're exploring composite deck designs for your garden, balcony, or patio, this project showcases how creative decking ideas can help you achieve a stunning, functional space that perfectly complements your home.
