Decking can offer many advantages over hard landscaping. In addition to the obvious aesthetic potential for a natural product in the garden, decking is a very cost-effective solution to extending your home outdoors. It also provides a simple and easy to install solution for changes in level, with minimal wet construction and site excavation and can be easily modified or extended at a later date.
There are not many additions to the home or garden that can match a wood decking area for its usefulness, natural beauty and overall shear enjoyment. Timber decking offers outdoor living space for dining, entertaining or simply relaxing with your favourite book or drink. They also provide children with an excellent and safe area to play. Abbey Timber supplies a large range of timber decking, bearers, joists, posts, rafters, beams and balustrading. We also carry a range of hardware and timber finishes to protect and enhance the character of your new timber deck.
If you are handy and have a bit of time on your hands we can help design your deck making it easier to construct it your self. We also have a number of sub-contractor based customers who can give you a quote to do the labour side of the project.
