Choosing the Right Decking Board

When selecting decking boards, consider the following factors:

• Aesthetic Preference: Decide whether you prefer the look of natural wood or composite materials.
• Maintenance Requirements: Composite boards like Trex require less maintenance compared to natural wood options.
• Budget: Consider the initial investment versus long-term maintenance costs.
• Usage: High-traffic areas may require more durable options like the heavy-duty boards or Trex Transcend.
• Installation: Choose between square-edge or grooved-edge boards based on your installation preference and skill level.

 Benefits of 4.8 m Boards

• Fewer joins, smoother finish – Extended lengths minimise butt joints for a more professional look.
• Low-maintenance options – Composite boards resist fading, warping, and rot, while treated timber offers natural character and weather protection.
• Cost-efficient installation – Less cutting and fewer fixings save both labour time and materials.
• Design flexibility – Ideal for picture-frame borders, continuous runs, and contemporary wide-open deck designs.

Applications

• Residential patios & garden decks – Perfect for larger outdoor living spaces.
• Balconies & roof terraces – When paired with a suitable sub-frame and drainage.
• Commercial leisure areas – Cafés, restaurants, or event spaces needing durable, attractive surfaces.
• Steps, walkways & pool surrounds – Long boards reduce seams in high-traffic zones.

Installation Tips

• Plan the layout first to minimise off-cuts and ensure even spacing.
• Use hidden fasteners on grooved composite boards for a seamless finish.
• Maintain a slight slope (about 2 mm per metre) away from the house for drainage.
• Leave expansion gaps (per manufacturer guidance) between board ends and around perimeter walls.
• Seal cut ends of timber with end-grain preservative to extend life.
