Payne Timber Quality Decking and Accessories

Let's summarise some of the major principles of effective deck construction:

• Plan your deck carefully and make a scale drawing.
• A full material list will save time later
• Use the correct tools and safety equipment
• Use galvanised fixings
• Use cut end preservative
• Take care when measuring, cutting, squaring and levelling.
• The addition of a deck to your garden should be seen as an extension to your living space and an investment to your property.
• Remember a well maintained deck will provide years of service and a lot of good times for you, your family and friends.

The type of deck you can build is only limited by your imagination, so call Payne Timber now for all your decking needs, buy direct from the merchant at unbeatable prices, delivered FREE to your door throughout the South West (minimum order may apply).

Use handrails and spindles to enclose your deck, partially section off areas or simply add to the personal statement that is your deck.

The straightforward simplicity of the spindle can be used on its own or in conjunction with other decorative panels or infills to create interesting little details.

This is where you can get really creative and make your garden a place that’s unique to you. Panels, posts, balustrades and railings have all been designed to allow you to add the finishing touches to your outdoor space.

Nothing can create that special evening mood like subtle lighting, which is why our deck lights are a must for any deck.

Sitting flush on the surface, they exude a soft, atmospheric light which transforms your deck into the perfect place for evening entertainment or relaxation.

Finish off flat topped posts with finials or post caps, and decoratively rope off areas that do not have any balustrade.

Caring for your deck is easy and can enhance its longevity.

The decking supplied by Payne Timber is long-lasting. All our garden timbers are already treated against rot and decay. Tanalith E treated timbers are protected by industry-leading methods of pressure impregnation. Tanalith E is also arsenic free which also makes it better for the environment.

In order to prolong the life of your deck, apply a proprietary brand of preservative fluid to any cut ends. If staining, the use of a solvent or oil based coating is recommended, as many water based products will not be suitable. To retain the water repellent properties of your decking, treat it with suitable wax coating every two to three years.

A range of proprietary anti-slip materials can be applied. Scrub the boards clean every spring and simply brush or sweep regularly.
