Your garden should be an outside area that extends your living space no matter the size or style. Effective garden decking ideas will transform you garden into somewhere for socialising, relaxing and enjoying nature. Decking is a versatile landscaping idea that can zone your garden and give you more stylish usable space.
You can make your new deck an excuse to make an alfresco dining spot, a lounge area, or an interesting pathway. It is also a brilliant solution for sloping garden ideas.
Decking is great for sloping gardens as it is a way to level out a sloping garden and create functional areas out of previously usable spaces. It is also the most cost-effective option to make the most of your sloping garden.
Decking does not need to cost the earth. There are plenty of options from traditional timber to modern composite in a wide range of styles to suit.
Surrounding your deck with plants will help to soften your deck and break it up with something more natural, plants and flowers are one of the most eye-catching options that are great decking ideas. Adding plants will make the deck feel more connected to the rest of your garden. If the deck gets direct sun, small trees would be a clever idea to create some shade instead of an umbrella.
Small gardens with limited space for plants around the deck can use potted plants like succulents and herbs for greenery and something like a sunflower will add that POP of bright colour.
The use of low maintenance plants around the decking is a super idea as well. Creating an effortless space that does not require hours of mowing grass, decking is perfect for those that are not that green fingered. Covering an area of your garden with decking will ensure that your garden is always summer ready and requires little work to make it fit for family and friends.
