WoodSolutions is your ultimate guide for all things timber decking.
You don’t have to sacrifice beauty and functionality when choosing sustainable decking. Natural timber decks blend seamlessly with the surrounding environment, making them a practical and stunning addition to any home. As an external structure that carries loads of traffic, you want a deck with high structural performance that holds its own while coping with the elements and everyday wear and tear. Timber decking is available in seasoned and unseasoned wood, in a wide range of species, sizes and grades. The natural appeal and strength of timber make it a practical choice for your outdoor decking.
Start with advice on choosing the correct species of timber for your deck and consider the climate it needs to withstand with WoodSolutions’ species comparison tools. Then head over to the installation guides for in-depth directions on how to properly build and install your deck.
With proper care and maintenance, your deck can host sunset gazing, backyard barbecues and time spent entertaining all year round. You can treat timber decking to endure wet conditions. Suitable ventilation is a must to allow for quick drying and a longer life for your deck. Your deck will need reapplication of finishes and paints regularly, but proper care and maintenance mean that it will be required less often.
