Decking compilation by Kevin Baumann of Landscaping.ie
Decking is a very versatile feature in garden design. It allows you to go the same level as DPC, allowing for a seamless connection between house and garden.
It is warmer than paving both on the eye and underfoot.
It's great for creating height with limited filling required.
There are unfortunately downsides, including: Limited life, Regular maintenance, Gets slippy
Decking provides a great solution for achieving height, say against a house, treehouse, viewing platforms to achieve views, and so on
