PVCu Decking

PVCu decking is an increasingly common option for providing outdoor seating areas in gardens. Due to the beauty of the wood effect, they can be very fashionable areas which you can use year round by adding outside heating and lighting. PVCu decking is often installed in locations in front of patio or French doors where they can create a smooth transition between interior and exterior spaces. PVCu decking can come in virtually any size or shape to fit any area. Curved designs or large areas connected by pathways can produce a striking effect. PVCu decking is relatively easy to install and causes minimal disruption, particularly when compared to alternatives like patio or paving. It can even be installed over the top of a pre-existing patio. It is essential however to make certain that your PVCu decking is structurally sound and able to take the load of any furniture or plants that you want to use on the decking. There is a variety of types of wood effect that can be used in PVCu decking. Generally decking is made of plastic. As plastic decking will need maintenance, which usually will involve yearly cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods are becoming more popular for use in PVCu decking because they are stronger and require far less maintenance.
