Garden Decking

 

Timber decking has become an extremely popular hard surface over the last few years, and forms an attractive alternative to a traditional brick or paved patio. The easiest decking option to add to your garden is parquet decking, which can simply be laid on gravel and sand. A slatted deck is slightly more complex to build, but is well within the reach of any enthusiastic DIYer, and has the added benefit of being suitable for slightly sloping ground.

We have put together a number of handy 'how-to' guides to help you with your decking project, as well as some useful tips on keeping your completed deck in tip-top condition for years to come.
