Building a deck is a big outdoor to-do, and you may want to do it yourself or hire a contractor. Either way, you’ll have to consider the size of the deck, its purpose and design, how it will be constructed, materials and cost. The type of wood you choose will play a significant role in the durability and look of your deck. Hardwoods — derived from deciduous trees such as Teak, Cherry and Oak — generally outperform softwoods in terms of durability. However, these types of wood can also be costly because they grow more slowly and are harder to find and ship. Cedar is a durable and beautiful softwood that protects your deck from the elements, including sun, rain and temperature fluctuations. It’s also easy to stain, giving you a variety of colors and textures. Over time, cedar ages to a silvery gray color that mimics the look of teak wood. When constructing the frame of your deck, avoid allowing beams to touch each other or they may rot over time. Instead, leave a small gap between the...

If you’re building a deck, you’ll want to use a treated pine timber. This is a cheap, sustainable timber that’s resilient to termites, borers and rain. It’s also more flexible than hardwood timber, which is less resilient to environmental influences. However, it’s not perfect. It’s important to note that treated pine isn’t a permanent solution for your deck. You’ll need to maintain it regularly, especially if you’re using it for outdoor use. You should have a decking builder asses the strength of your timber to ensure it’s able to support the weight of people and furniture. In addition, you’ll need to sand and stain your timber every few years to preserve it. Pine timber is a versatile material that can be painted or stained to match any colour scheme. It can also be used to create privacy screens, pergolas, and more. It’s often cheaper than other timbers and it can blend in with most colour schemes. Before you buy your timber, be sure to get a quote from a licensed decking builde...

Azek decking is a premium deck material that provides superior durability and low maintenance requirements. It is resistant to rot, warping, splintering, and insect damage. It is also fade and stain resistant, maintaining its appearance for years to come. In addition to its superior quality, azek decking offers a wide range of design options that will enhance your outdoor living space. Unlike traditional wood decking, azek decking is made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride), which has a capped surface that is scratch and stain resistant. It also contains recycled plastics, boosting its eco-conscious value. This material is easy to work with, and is available in a variety of colors. The color is embedded in the plastic, rather than being sprayed on top, resulting in a longer-lasting product. Another advantage of azek decking is that it does not require annual staining, sealing, or sanding like wood decking. This can save you a great deal of time and money over the life of your deck. Althoug...

If you have a deck, adding a pergola to it can transform it into a beautiful outdoor living space for entertaining and relaxing. There are many points to consider, from the best wood species or stain color to making sure that your deck can support the structure’s added weight. But when it’s done well, a pergola on deck can provide years of enjoyment for friends and family. There are many woods that can be used to create a pergola, though it’s important to use rot- and pest-resistant material. California redwood and western red cedar are good choices, but they can be expensive or difficult to find locally. Tropical hardwoods, such as ipe and teak, are also rot-resistant, low maintenance and attractive. Look for those certified as sustainable by the Forest Stewardship Council to ensure they’re harvested ethically. A pergola needs a sturdy base, so it’s essential to anchor it firmly to your deck. This can be accomplished with post bases, which affix firmly to your deck and connect to th...
