Why Should You Consider Decking?

Here at Heads Apart Building and Maintenance, we provide a range of garden services , including decking installation. We have over 10 years of experience and have a team of highly dedicated tradesmen who specialises in various fields.
Having a garden deck installed can improve and modernise your space in many ways. It may look like a major project, but with the help of a professional service, you can transform your space into something spectacular. There are lots of reasons why people choose decking to improve their garden.
Aesthetic Appeal Wood is rustic and is a thing of natural beauty. It comes in all shapes, sizes and colours, and you can choose the best type to suit your garden and blend into your existing design. Co-ordinating your decking with your overall exterior design creates a natural and appealing look. It is a comfortable surface for walking and sitting on, as well as its ability to make you feel more at one with nature with its appearance. You can also add decorations such as birds feeders, plant pots or solar lights to create a relaxing atmosphere for when you sit out in the summer evenings or when you’re entertaining friends and family.
Utilises Space Timber decking can be a great way to make the most of your garden space. It is highly flexible and can create a beautiful feature in your garden. Decking can be built around garden ponds, water features and more, and provide you with a way to improve your garden at a lower cost. If your garden slopes, decking provides a solution. Elevated or split level decks are a brilliant way to create a level ground in your garden and make it look truly unique.
You can add additional features to your deck to ensure your guests and family are always entertained and have more space to relax or play games. With a deck, you can really get creative.
Less Maintenance It can be very difficult to keep on top of things when you run a busy lifestyle, and one of the great things about timber is that it is very low maintenance. A deck only needs a quick mop or vacuum every so often, with good quality products to keep it looking fresh. We recommend polishing your deck twice a year to keep it protected from UV rays which may cause damage.
On top of this, certain hardwoods naturally resist harsh weather conditions and bugs, which means that your decking is guaranteed to last for a long period of time. Many types of softwood are treated with chemicals in order to prevent rotting and termites.
Attracts Future Buyers Decking is an affordable way to increase your home’s value by up to 10% . Although you may not necessarily be thinking about selling up at the moment, it is something to consider if you do. A well-designed deck will attract buyers, especially if they are looking for very little garden maintenance. Decks provide a clean outdoor space for entertainment, and this will appeal to buyers with families.
