5 Reasons to Buy PVCu Decking
1. Non-Slip
If you have walked on timber decking in the rain, chances are you know how hazardous it can be when wet, as the wooden surface can quickly become slippery. Many timber decking owners get around this problem by fixing mesh fencing across the surface of the decking and although this can give you something to grip on, it ruins the appearance of the decking. Instead, why not go for PVCu decking, as it is completely non-slip even in heavy rain but be careful during freezing temperatures, as slippery ice can still form on the surface.
2. Low Maintenance
One of the most arduous tasks of maintaining timber decking is to keep it properly painted, stained or sealed throughout the year. This is not only time consuming but also costly and it’s only practical in the warmer months of the year. So why not leave all these worries behind, as PVCu decking comes in a colour of your choice and requires absolutely no staining, sealing or painting, so you won’t have to worry about maintaining it.
3. Stain & Scratch Resistant
If you drag an item like a lawn chair or barbeque across PVCu decking without thinking or accidentally spill a glass of wine or knock over a can of oil onto the surface don’t worry, as PVCu decking is also stain and scratch resistant. We understand that home life can be full of surprises, which is why our decking is engineered to be tough and durable, able to resist whatever is thrown at it.
4. Weatherproof
The good old British weather can also be full of surprises, with rain one minute and sunshine the next, so you will be pleased to hear that our decking is completely weatherproof too. Whether it’s torrential rain, freezing sleet, thick snow or sizzling sunshine, you can rest assured that your new decking will be left unscathed by the elements.
5. Doesn’t Warp Like Timber
When timber decking warps it can be really, really annoying and most importantly it can be quite unsafe, as warping could potentially create a trip hazard. PVCu doesn’t warp at all and stays in exactly the same shape it was installed in. Even during a dramatic change in temperature, you won’t have to worry about warping occurring.
