Foundations and structure.
Properly prepared foundations are the basis of every deck. For timber decking, the structure is most often supported by wooden posts set into the ground or on concrete blocks. It is important to ensure that the base is solid, so the deck can be used for many years. Composite decking often requires a slightly different approach. Using aluminium or galvanised steel profiles can significantly increase the stability of the structure.
Finishing.
Both timber and composite decking can be finished in various ways. Timber is most often treated with varnishes or oils, which protect it from moisture and UV radiation. Composite decking is often available in a range of colours and textures, making it possible to create a unique design that complements the surroundings.
Installation.
Decking installation also varies depending on the materials. Composite decking manufacturers often provide installation systems that make it easy and quick to assemble the components, as well as dismantle them later. This is an important consideration, especially for people planning possible maintenance work in the future.
