Timber decking adds an extremely useful and attractive feature to your house and garden and is available in a variety of designs and styles allowing unlimited versatility while giving years of enjoyment for your family and friends while adding value to your property.
Decks are a great option for businesses like pubs, clubs, hotels and restaurants that want to create an attractive space for their customers to enjoy alfresco dining, offering endless design opportunities to expand your outdoor living areas without the cost and drama of an additional room.
The Australian climate can be harsh and for a functional outdoor living area that can be enjoyed all year round, wooden decks are the ideal solution as they absorb far less heat than masonry alternatives making it much cooler to walk on.
One of the major advantages is that because timber decking is built on a frame it can be built on practically any terrain so the landscape of you property is virtually irrelevant. Build a pool surrounding, pergola or take advantage of wasted space and construct a deck in place of a sloping garden, giving your family a flat area on which to play, relax and entertain.
For a distinctive look and extra character external balustrades can really make a difference to your deck. Consider options ranging from modern stainless steel wire balustrading, glass or a classic decorative panel.
Whether you require a complex multi level deck or a simpler one-level design, it is important to create the right style to compliment the character of the property. Selecting the right decking material is probably the most important decision you need to make, because the material will determine the look of the deck, the cost, the amount of maintenance required and the life of the deck.
Ensure that you end up with a quality product that is perfect solution for alfresco dining, entertaining friends or just a relaxing space to soak up the beauty of your back yard for years to come.
