PVCu Decking

PVCu decking is an increasingly common choice for creating outdoor seating areas in gardens. Due to the beauty of the wood effect, they can be very beautiful spaces which can be used year round with the help of external heating and lighting. PVCu decking is typically fitted 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 virtually any size or shape to suit any area. Curved designs or large areas connected by pathways can produce a striking effect. PVCu decking is reasonably quick to install and causes little disruption, especially when compared to alternatives like patio or paving. It could even be installed over the top of an existing patio. It is important however to make sure that your PVCu decking is structurally sound and able to take the weight of any furniture or plants that you want to use on the decking. There is a choice of types of wood effect that can be used in PVCu decking. Generally decking is made of plastic. As plastic decking will demand maintenance, which commonly entails yearly cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods are becoming more popular for use in PVCu decking as they are stronger and require far less maintenance.
