Yorkshire Wooden Decking
For certain, we are Yorkshire’s premier wooden decking design and construction company, offering traditional or bespoke schemes. Wooden decking falls into three categories, detailed below.
Softwood Decking
Quality softwood decking is a cost-effective way of creating real useable spaces within any garden scheme. Wooden decking lends itself to uses where more traditional, stone-based surfaces are either not desired or not possible, for example, raised platforms and balconies or alongside water features to give a floating feel. Wooden decking is perfect for creating that 'inside-outside' feeling when installed alongside a patio or bi-folding doors next to your property. Similarly, it can be used in any garden area to provide a usable focal point. All our softwood decking is kiln-dried before visiting the treatment tank, where it receives pressure treatment for external use. The supporting timber framework is always structurally graded timber (c16 or better), which is also pressure-treated for external use. We only use screws as a fixing method for our decking. Nails = Squeaks!
Hardwood decking is used in all the same applications as softwood. It offers a more decorative, high-end finish and feel. Hardwood decking is available in a wide range of timber species. We regularly work with Ipe, Iroko and Yellow Balau, all renowned for their striking appearance. We are also happy to work with any other species of timber our clients require, including oak. All our hardwood decks are carefully installed with visible stainless steel or hidden fixings. As with our softwood decking, the pressure-treated supporting timber frame is formed using only structurally graded timber. Our clients who want a dark and rich finish to their deck will likely choose one of the hardwood options.
