Wooden Decking

About our wooden decking kits

Our Power wooden decking range is built around complete, modular kits rather than loose boards. The catalogue contains 45 footprints from 4x4ft to 20x20ft. That range covers a compact chair platform, a path-side seating area or a larger space for outdoor dining.

The kits use pressure-treated Scandinavian timber with 28mm x 120mm reversible boards. One face has a familiar grooved decking profile; the other is planed smooth. The modular base sections arrive pre-assembled, reducing the amount of framing needed on site. Two-side and three-side handrail layouts use pre-built rails and 85mm x 85mm newel posts.

Wood is forgiving when a board is marked because it can be cleaned, sanded or refinished. It still needs care. Keep leaves out of gaps, wash algae before it becomes slippery and follow Power's treatment conditions. Compare alternatives on our decking page or read about composite decking.

Timber specification and ongoing care

Power specifies 28mm x 120mm boards and pressure-treated, slow-grown Scandinavian timber. Green decking screws and bolts are supplied for the kit assembly. Cover boards finish two exposed sides. Power states a 10-year timber guarantee against rot, decay and insect attack, subject to its maintenance terms.

Pressure treatment protects the timber, but it does not remove routine care. Treat the dry timber as Power directs and repeat the treatment annually. Keep the gaps clear so rain can escape. A stiff brush and suitable timber cleaner are safer than an aggressive pressure-washer setting.

For base preparation, read our ground preparation guide. Our foundation comparison explains drainage and level tolerances. The same principles apply beneath a timber deck.
