PVCu Decking

PVCu decking is an increasingly prevalent option for providing outdoor seating areas in gardens. Because of the beauty of the wood effect, they can be very fashionable spaces which you can use year round with the addition of outside heating and illumination. PVCu decking is often 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 virtually any size or shape to complement any area. Curved designs or large areas linked by pathways can create an attractive effect. PVCu decking is fairly quick to install and causes little disruption, especially in comparison to other possibilities like patio or paving. It can even be installed over the top of an existing patio. It is necessary however to make certain 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 range of types of wood effect that can be used in PVCu decking. Normally decking is constructed from plastic. As plastic decking will need maintenance, which usually requires annual cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods have become popular for use in PVCu decking because they are more robust and require much less maintenance.
