Build your whole deck around our light oak boards here. The calculator walks you through each part, from subframe and joists to clips, starter clips, fascia and edging trims. Enter your length and width in metres and skip any step for parts you already have. Customers who like the rustic, mixed-tone grain of light oak often order samples of our walnut boards as well, which give the same character in a dark brown. You’ll see both as you work through the full project calculator, so check which end of the brown range suits your garden before you commit.

Expert Advice for Light Oak Composite Decking
Want to know more? Our in-house expert, Allan, gives his take on our Light Oak Composite Decking, and we’ve selected some of our best guides to help you decide if this is the right choice for you.
A Word from Our Expert, Allan Jeffrey BSc. Eng. (Hons), Composite Materials Specialist, Environmentalist, and CEO of Ultra Decking:
Our original composite decking lines were all about perfecting the blend of quality and affordability. But we didn’t stop there. We listened to our customers as they asked the next logical question: ‘How can we get even closer to the authentic look of real, weathered timber?’
Our answer was to stop thinking in single colours. For our Mixed Light Oak, we developed a process to blend lighter and darker shades of light brown throughout a single board. This, combined with our unique wood grain texture, creates a level of depth and natural inconsistency that you just can’t get with a standard board. It’s the perfect choice for a truly authentic, high-end look without any of the maintenance.

Light Oak Decking Board Specifications
Check the Light Oak Decking board’s dimensions below before you measure up, so steps, borders and any features in your design work out exactly. If you’re working the boards out by hand rather than with our calculator, An expert tip is: allow for the gap between boards: a 148 mm board needs a 3 mm side gap, so count each board as 148 + 3 mm across.

FAQ About Our Light Oak Boards
1 Will the light oak colour of the decking fade over time?
Yes, as with all composite materials, you can expect around 15–20% colour softening over the first 6–12 months. This is natural, and the board then settles into a stable, long-lasting shade.
2 Can I install this light oak decking myself?
Yes. With a grooved edge for hidden fasteners, installation is straightforward and mess-free. No special tools are required; our installation guide walks through each step.
3 Are these light oak composite decking boards safe for pets and children?
Yes. The boards are splinter-free and slip-resistant, making them a safe choice for families, including four-legged members.
4 Can I use this light oak decking near a pool or hot tub?
Yes. The slip resistance and water tolerance make it well suited to wet areas, and it won’t warp or rot like timber.
5 How many light oak boards will I need?
Use the quick calculator on this page: enter your deck’s length and width for a board count, and tick the 5% cutting margin to cover trimming and cuts. Each 3.6m board covers roughly 0.533 m²; if you’re working it out by hand, this board is 148mm wide, so count each one as 151mm across with its 3mm gap.
6 Is the light oak colour consistent across every board?
No, and that’s deliberate. Each board is blended to replicate the natural tonal variation of oak, so no two boards are identical and the deck has the character of real timber.
7 Should I order a sample first?
Yes. We work hard to present colours accurately online, but screen settings vary, so order a free sample to see the mixed-tone grain up close and hold it against the rest of your garden.
