Paving v’s Decking

Concrete paving and wooden decking has been around for centuries and the two are always trying to get the better of one another, according to the style icons of the garden. When it’s dry, both paving and decking make your garden look immensely beautiful, but it’s not always dry is it? That’s right, we live in Britain don’t forget and it’s known for its crazy climates and wild winds. That’s not the worst thing though as rain and wooden decking certainly do not go hand in hand. Have you ever taken a look at yours or someone else’s decking after a period of rainfall? It looks horrendous and although it dries, the wood can be damaged and may rot if affected by rain too much.

This is why concrete paving rules and you can have all sorts of quirky designs for your patio or driveway if you choose Planet Surfacing! Although wood gives a more traditional look to your home, concrete paving far outweighs it in terms of aesthetics and bestowing your home with a new ‘modern’ look. A big reason why many people choose paving and surfacing over wooden decking is the feature of imprinted concrete, which involves you having any pattern you desire in your driveway or patio – you’ll have a whole range to choose from, as well as designing your own imprinted concrete!

Wood has its benefits though, there are hundreds of different types of wood to choose from, with the use of paint you can have any colour (s) you desire, if you wanted your decking all yellow then that could be done (although it would be very eccentric). We believe that installing concrete around your home can also give a traditional look also, if you go back to the medieval ages, the majority of homes and castles were made out of stone. It all depends on personal preference, you could choose a concrete patio with a black finish on it or with a white gloss finish so that it stands out more – it’s all down to you.
