PVCu Decking

PVCu decking is an increasingly fashionable choice for providing outdoor seating areas in gardens. Because of the beauty of the wood effect, they can be very beautiful areas which can be used year round by adding additional heating and illumination. PVCu decking is often fitted in locations in front of patio or French doors where they can create a smooth transition between inside and outside spaces. PVCu decking can come in virtually any size or shape to fit any area. Curved designs or large areas joined by pathways can create a stunning effect. PVCu decking is fairly simple 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 critical however to make sure that your PVCu decking is structurally sound and able to take the load of any furniture or plants that you would like to use on the decking. There is a range of types of wood effect that can be used in PVCu decking. Usually decking is made of plastic. As plastic decking will need maintenance, which generally will involve yearly cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods are becoming popular for use in PVCu decking as they are more robust and require significantly less maintenance.
