Composite Decking
Durable, hardwearing and long-lasting, our composite decking comes with a 10-year warranty to assure you that our products are worth the investment. It’s easy to install once you have laid your composite joists, so you can save your budget on hiring a fitter and opt for a DIY project instead. Just take a look at our Composite Decking Installation Guide for all the details on how to lay composite decking. In comparison to its real-wood counterpart, composite decking can withstand interchangeable weather conditions in terms of expanding and contracting boards, slip resistance and waterproof material properties.
Pair your purchase with some composite decking accessories to aid you throughout the installation process. Our inverted joist provides a sturdy frame for your composite decking to stand on. Our starter clips are essential to form the initial attachment between the decking board and the joist frame. We supply both metal and plastic T-clips/joining clips to suit individual tastes. So, if you are looking for a wider gap between boards, choose plastic clips, if you are looking for a smaller gap, choose metal clips.

Composite decking is a synthetic material, usually made from recycled wood fibres and plastic. These are heated together with bonding agents and tints and pressed into shape. The embossed surface finish is designed to replicate the appearance and texture of real wood, to which composite decking acts as a modern alternative for.
Composite decking has taken the world by storm, offering a strong, durable, weather resistant, climate resistant and anti-slip decking alternative to wood. With a 10year warranty, you are sure to get the most out of our composite decking and keep your garden looking stylish and modern.
One of the main selling points for choosing composite decking over wooden decking is the low maintenance and minimal upkeep that it requires. With just hot soapy water and a cloth, you can wipe down the decking in a matter of minutes and finish off with a quick sweep. No sealing, staining, sanding or treating, composite decking proves to be cost effective.

Artificial Grass is made up of synthetic materials, most prominently polyethylene which makes up the blades of the grass. Polypropylene is usually sourced to make the thatch layer of artificial grass, which acts as a supportive, cushioning layer. Both of these materials are dyed accordingly and coated with UV protective solvent and fixed to the backing. Artificial Grass backing is usually made from latex with drainage hole sections to allow for water absorption. Acting as a direct, modern alternative to natural grass, an artificial lawn replicates all the desirable features minus the down-sides.
Many people are now opting for an artificial lawn over real grass. It is low maintenance, pet-safe, long-lasting, environmentally friendly, pollen free and offers all the features and material properties of real grass without the upkeep and hassle. By choosing artificial turf, you are choosing a fresh and pristine lawn all year round. When choosing artificial grass, you are guaranteed to save time and money without compromising on appearances or quality.
