Will the slate grey colour fade over time?

Yes, as with all composite decking, you can expect up to 20% fading in the first few months due to UV exposure. This natural weathering process results in a soft, more natural tone, producing a a lighter dark grey appearance.

Is the slate grey grooved decking slippery when wet?

Not at all. The grooved surface offers excellent slip resistance, especially when you use the narrow-groove side, making it safe in all weather conditions.

Can I install slate grey grooved composite decking myself?

Absolutely. Our decking boards are lightweight and grooved for use with a hidden fastener system so there’s no need for visible screws or professional help.

Do I need any special tools to install slate grey decking?

No. Just basic tools like a saw, drill, and tape measure. Follow our simple installation guide and you’ll have your deck up in no time.

Is the slate grey grooved decking safe for kids and pets?

Yes! Our boards are splinter-free, toxin-free, and much cooler underfoot than traditional metal or dark-stained wood decking, so everyone can enjoy long summers outside!

What’s the difference between this and solid decking boards?

Our hollow-core design offers strong performance for domestic use while remaining lighter, easier to install, and more affordable than solid composite decking.

Want to know more? Our in-house expert, Allan, gives his take on our Slate Grey 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:

Our Slate Grey board is the original in our Home Choice Collection, featuring a distinctive dark grey colour with a subtle blue tint. It was developed through years of customer feedback and rigorous testing to deliver the perfect balance of proven quality and real value. These boards are truly tried and tested—they’ve been installed in UK gardens for nearly a decade, so we know they last.

Over the years, we’ve also discovered a key tip from our customers: thanks to the classic sanded surface, most light scuffs or scratches can be gently blended away with a soft wire brush. It’s a unique benefit that helps keep your deck looking pristine.
