Which Timber Decking Option Is Right For You?
How to choose the right type of timber for your deck building project
Hardwood Decking
Hardwood decking offers exceptional durability, stunning natural aesthetics, and a long lifespan, making it ideal for those seeking a premium, long-lasting solution with minimal maintenance. There are a wide variety of natural colours and grains to choose from. Being a premium quality product, it is slightly more expensive than the other timber decking options we offer, but we think it's worth every penny.

Softwood Decking
Softwood decking is the most affordable and versatile timber decking option, offering a natural, rustic look that enhances any outdoor space. We professionally treat and seal our softwood decks to protect against rot, decay, and insect damage. Many people stain or paint their softwood decking, providing the ability to easily and affordably customise its colour to match your outdoor space.

Step 1) Request a No-Obligation Quote
Reach out to our team to determine if we're the right match for your project. You can call us, fill out our straightforward form, or even send us a message on WhatsApp.
Step 2) In-Person Consultation
If it looks like we can assist with your project, a team member will personally visit your property to take measurements, discuss design ideas, and present various timber, hardwood and softwood decking samples for you to explore. This is where your project starts to come to life!
Step 3) Itemised Quotation
Once you're satisfied with the vision we've developed for your project, we'll provide a free itemised quotation. This will give you a detailed breakdown of all aspects of your timber decking project, ensuring there are no hidden costs or unexpected surprises.
Step 4) Digital 3D design
Our team of professional architects will create a detailed 3D digital model of your new timber, hardwood or softwood decking project. This allows you to refine and perfect the design to match your exact vision before any construction begins.
Step 5) Preparation work begins!
We'll clear the designated area and prepare it to support the frame of your new decking, taking care to avoid underground cables and pipes while accounting for any drains or manholes in the final design. This stage also marks the delivery of all necessary materials to your property.
Step 6) Framing
We'll construct a robust timber framework using the most weather-resistant materials available in the UK. Deck tape, wood treatment and various membranes are used to further increase the durability of the framework. This ensures your new composite deck will have a solid foundation that lasts for years to come.
Step 7) Additional Extras
We'll install any optional features such as lighting, built-in seating, or balustrade to enhance the design and functionality of your new deck.
Step 8) Decking Board Installation
We'll install your new wooden decking boards using proprietary methods to ensure all screws are hidden from sight, providing a seamless and polished finish.
Step 9) Staining & Sealing
We'll apply a finishing layer of staining and sealant to give your timber deck an extra lustrous look and provide additional protection for the next 1-2 years before needing to be re-sealed or re-stained.
Step 10) Final Quality Checks
Our experts will conduct a comprehensive quality inspection of the entire project, ensuring every detail meets our high standards. Only after this thorough check will we hand it over to you, ready for you to enjoy for many years to come.
