PVCu Decking

PVCu decking is an increasingly popular option for providing outdoor seating areas in gardens. Because of the beauty of the wood effect, they can be very beautiful spaces that can be used year round by installing external heating and light. PVCu decking is commonly fitted in locations in front of patio or French doors where they can create a seamless transition between inside and outside spaces. PVCu decking can come in virtually any size or shape to suit any area. Curved designs or large areas connected by pathways can create a striking effect. PVCu decking is reasonably quick to install and causes minimal disruption, especially in comparison to alternatives like patio or paving. It can even be installed over the top of a pre-existing patio. It is important however to make certain that your PVCu decking is structurally sound and able to take the weight of any furniture or plants that you would like to use on the decking. There is a choice of types of wood effect that can be used in PVCu decking. Often decking is constructed from plastic. As plastic decking will require maintenance, which typically includes annual cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods have become popular for use in PVCu decking as they are stronger and require significantly less maintenance.
