Wooden decking is an increasingly prevalent choice for providing outdoor seating areas in gardens. Because of the natural beauty of wood, they can be very fashionable spaces that can be used year round by adding outside heating and illumination. Wooden decking is commonly installed in locations in front of patio or French doors where they can create a smooth transition between inside and outside spaces. Wooden decking can come in virtually any size or shape to accommodate any area. Curved designs or large areas joined by pathways can create an attractive effect. Wooden decking is reasonably easy to install and causes little disruption, particularly when compared to alternatives like patio or paving. It could even be installed over the top of an existing patio. It is crucial however to be certain that your wooden decking is structurally sound and capable of taking the load of any furniture or plants that you want to use on the decking. There is a choice of varieties of wood that can be used in wooden decking. Usually decking is made of hardwood, but there are softwoods available that fulfil the durability specifications. As hardwood decking will require maintenance, which generally requires annual cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods have become popular for use in wooden decking because they are more robust and require far less maintenance.
The typical cost of Wooden decking is £1500. Costs can change based upon the materials and the firm hired. The upper price range can be as high as £1725. The material costs are commonly approximately £375

Didcot is a railway town and civil parish in the county of Oxfordshire. Although it is a parish, it has the standing of a town, being administered by the Didcot Town Council. The town was a part of Berkshire prior to its shift to Oxfordshire in 1974, due to a boundary modification stipulated in the 1972 Local Government Act, and it became a part of the newly-formed South Oxfordshire region. Having an area of 3.27 square miles and a population total of 25 140, it comprises the largest town in the brand-new district. Didcot has been designated as one of three major progression regions in Oxfordshire, due to such developments as the 'Ladygrove' starting in the late 1980s. The 'Ladygrove' has included building work in the north and east of Didcot's railway line on marshland since the late 1980s, and the development is on task to double the amount of residences in the town. It is predicted that the town will continue to grow as a result of the decision of a planning enquiry in 2006 that the building and construction of a 3200 home project to the west of the town will begin after the conclusion of the 'Ladygrove' development. Didcot is frequently recognised for its power station, railway and train junction. The town was of strategic importance to military logistics through World War One and World War Two because of Didcot's junction of the routes to London, Bristol, Oxford and to Southampton through the Didcot, Newbury and Southampton Railway (DN&S). In 2015, Didcot ended up being the very first existing town identified as a Garden Town, which is a status that offers backing to support eco friendly and environmentally-friendly town development for 15 years.

If your deck isn’t going to be flat to the ground, it’s a good idea to have some kind of balustrade to avoid any tripping. If the gap between the deck and the ground is less than 600mm, use a 900mm balustrade. If it’s higher than 600mm, the balustrade should be 1100mm tall.
Properly installed wooden decking will not need a lot of maintenance. Most manufacturers recommend regularly brushing leaves and dirt off the deck, and a yearly cleaning and staining procedure. This will keep the wood in the best condition. Fluids and treatments are readily available from all DIY shops and stores.
