PVCu Decking

PVCu decking is an increasingly prevalent option for providing outdoor seating areas in gardens. Due to the beauty of the wood effect, they can be very fashionable spaces that can be used year round by installing additional heating and illumination. PVCu decking is commonly installed in locations in front of patio or French doors where they can create a smooth transition between inside and outside spaces. PVCu decking is available in any size or shape to accommodate any area. Curved designs or large areas linked by pathways can produce a striking effect. PVCu decking is relatively quick to install and causes little disruption, especially in comparison to alternate options like patio or paving. It can even be installed over the top of an 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 would like to use on the decking. There is a choice of varieties of wood effect that can be used in PVCu decking. Often decking is made of plastic. As plastic decking will demand maintenance, which usually consists of annual cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods have become popular for use in PVCu decking because they are more robust and require significantly less maintenance.
