With 25 years experience in the marketplace, we’ve had time to develop the best decking ranges to provide a cost-effective, attractive, and future-proof solution for commercial landscaping, terraces and other outdoor spaces.

The Dura Deck range suits all applications and budgets and includes A1 fire-rated luxury porcelain decking known as Dura Deck Inspire, and A2 fire-rated aluminium decking (Dura Deck Aluminium). Both ranges can be installed on an A2 fire rated substrate using our patented Aluminium Substructure which consists of our Dura Bearers and Pedestals.We have a large stockholding of decking products available for immediate despatch.
If you’re looking to transform your outdoor space into a beautiful, ready-to-use decked area without the need for a professional landscaper, we can offer Dura Deck Tile – interlocking composite deck tiles that require no specialist tools or skills.

The National House Building Council, (NHBC) is the leading provider of warranties for new build housing in the UK. Each year, the NHBC releases an updated version of its technical standards after working with stakeholders from across the construction industry. As apartment developments with outdoor balcony spaces continue to rise in popularity, it is important to be familiar with the BS 8579 standard which sets a benchmark for quality of the design of balconies and terraces, and with the latest technical guidance from the NHBC.
Latest standards state that drainage is required on balconies where areas are 6m2 or over, and that consideration should also be given to providing drainage to areas that are less than 6m2, when considering factors such as exposure, where the water will end up, and potential adverse effects on the building or surrounding area.
