Decking - worth splashing out?

Helen B

Woken up very sore this morning after spending this weekend building a deck frame to tidy up our garden ready for selling.
Question is, is it worth splashing out on hardwood decking or should we just get the standard Travis Perkins decking saving about £1k. We are planning to sell this summer.

Does a stain exist that can make cheap decking look more expensive? Many thanks!

    I wouldn’t bother building any decking if you are going to sell. Some people dislike decking (blame Groundforce!) so it could put buyers off? I personally have and like wooden decking but is a bit like marmite............

      Hello Helen. As you are looking to sell your property, then going for the most cost-effective decking makes the best sense. That being said, if on your next project you are looking for something with longevity, then I'd say it's definitely worth considering the range of composite decking products out there. They have great benefits over wood: slip- and algae-resistant to name but two. Here's one we made earlier!

      Timber decking requires maintenance and these days people don’t have time to maintain things. Composite and cost effective.

      Due to various level changes in the garden we have to do something to make the space more useable but take all your comments on board - thank you.

      I have decking and staining does make it look better and prevents it being slippery when wet, however, the last time I bought decking I had instructions not to stain it for 6 months therefore it may not be an option for you.

      A dark grey stain/paint would look far more expensive than it is and will help preserve the deck for some time.
