PVCu Decking

PVCu decking is an increasingly fashionable option for providing outdoor seating areas in gardens. Because of the beauty of the wood effect, they can be very fashionable spaces that can be used year round with the addition of additional heating and lighting. PVCu decking is generally installed in locations in front of patio or French doors where they can create a smooth transition between interior and exterior spaces. PVCu decking is available in any size or shape to match any area. Curved designs or large areas connected by pathways can create a striking effect. PVCu decking is reasonably easy to install and causes little 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 essential however to make certain that your PVCu decking is structurally sound and capable of taking the load of any furniture or plants that you want to use on the decking. There is a choice of varieties of wood effect that can be used in PVCu decking. Normally decking is made of plastic. As plastic decking will need maintenance, which typically involves annual cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods are becoming more popular for use in PVCu decking as they are stronger and require significantly less maintenance.
