Frequently Asked Questions
How long does composite decking last? High-quality composite decking typically lasts between 20 and 30 years with minimal maintenance. It is designed to resist rot, warping, and fading better than traditional timber decking.
Do you provide free quotes and site visits? Yes, we offer free, no-obligation quotes. We can visit your property, take measurements, discuss your ideas, and recommend the most suitable decking options.
Is composite decking slippery when wet? Most modern composite decking boards are slip-resistant, making them safer than many timber alternatives, especially in wet conditions. This makes them ideal for family gardens and outdoor seating areas.
How long does installation take? Most composite decking installations are completed within 1 to 3 days, depending on the size of the area, ground preparation, and design requirements.
Does composite decking require much maintenance? No. Composite decking is low maintenance and does not need sanding, staining, or painting. Occasional cleaning with water and mild detergent is usually enough to keep it looking good.
Can composite decking be installed on uneven ground? Yes. We prepare a solid sub-frame and base to ensure your decking is level, stable, and long-lasting, even on uneven or sloped ground.
Will composite decking fade over time? Quality composite boards are UV-stabilised and designed to resist fading. Some minor colour change may occur in the first few months, after which the colour remains stable.
Is composite decking environmentally friendly? Many composite decking products are made using recycled plastics and wood fibres, making them a more environmentally friendly option than some traditional materials.
Do you remove old decking or waste materials? Yes, we can remove and dispose of old decking and waste materials as part of the project. This can be included in your quotation if required.
