Composite Decking Lancashire | Revitalise & Upgrade Your Property

With over 60% of the local housing market consisting of terraced red-brick properties, choosing the right colour contrast is essential. To modernise older brickwork across towns like Preston, Blackburn, and Burnley, we recommend pairing your masonry with cool, contemporary light greys.

Alternatively, if you want to bring warmth to your outdoor living area, rich earthy tones like Teak composite decking and Chocolate seamlessly bridge the gap between traditional home interiors and the natural garden environment.

Flexible Board Lengths

Lancashire’s mill-town terraces in Burnley, Blackburn, Accrington and Preston were built with a back alley, so the boards go in through the back gate, and a 3.6m composite board fits the typical terrace garden with one cut; our guide to how to install composite decking covers the fitting sequence. The driver drops kerbside, gets the van as close to the gate as is safe, and if someone is there to give a hand he will help carry the boards into the back garden. Out on the Fylde, where the bungalows and semis of Lytham, Thornton and Poulton sit on wide plots, 4m composite decking cross the garden in one piece and halve the number of joins. 2.4m boards suit the stepped decks on the valley sides above Rawtenstall and Colne, where every tier is a different length.

Accessories for Maximum Drainage

The North West is no stranger to heavy rain blowing in from the coast. To manage surface water effectively, we strongly advise using our plastic decking fasteners. These clips automatically create a slightly wider expansion gap between your boards, facilitating rapid water drainage during severe downpours.

Provide Your Project with the Right Support

A long-lasting decking installation starts with a solid foundation. While standard C16 timber is sufficient for flat, sheltered patios, Lancashire’s damp climate often calls for a more robust solution. C24 treated timber joists provide the necessary strength for elevated decks or sloped gardens, reducing the need for excessive structural posts. For the ultimate defense against ground moisture and rot, upgrading to our composite joists guarantees a frame that lasts just as long as your composite boards.

Give Your Project Some Lancashire Love

Finish your garden project flawlessly by concealing any exposed sub-frames. Frame your decking with our dedicated edge trims, or opt for our seamless bullnose boards to create a smooth, premium perimeter. For a highly modern focal point, try installing a dark Anthracite or Black composite boards to act as a border around a lighter grey deck.
