Why Decking?

Adaptable and certainly pleasing on the eye, uPVC and composite residential decking are great additions to both small and large gardens, with advantages going far beyond its obvious visual appeal. Fitrite are pleased to provide a variety of options to suit various needs, able to serve the whole United Kingdom thanks to our numerous depots across the country.

Uncertain about which to choose? Each variant has advantages. Low-maintenance composite decking is an eco-friendly product made of a mixture of recycled materials, while the perks of uPVC decking are that it won’t split, rot, warp, or crack in bad weather. Our decking generally serves multiple important purposes, and is remarkably versatile. It’s suitable for locations close to ponds, pools, and other water features because of its sturdy construction, long-lasting build, and effective waterproofing.

Types And Varieties

Adjustable to your space, we can offer a variety of themes, colours, and textures as part of our design and installation service – to fit your environment and the surrounding garden area. Making careful decisions that complement the overall aesthetic appeal of your distinctive home is essential to realising its full potential, and at Fitrite, our goal is to satisfy all of your demands and expectations for decking. For this reason, we provide a huge assortment of uPVC boards in a range of colours, such as Ash Grey, Hazelnut, and Maple.

While our website gallery provides an overview of some previous designs and projects, your garden installation or renovation is essentially unique to you, and as such, a consultation is probably necessary. During this consultation session, we can walk you through the finer points, such as complementary accessories and colour schemes. Of course, stunning looks are only half the story. That’s why we guarantee that our decks will withstand the test of time, allowing you to enjoy your deck for many years to come.

Fitted Fencing Gates

One way to safely and aesthetically divide off sections of your garden area is by adding sectional fencing with corresponding decking gates to your garden setup. With the right fencing surround, a gate separates off areas of a space, making for a good option if you’re either creating distinct sections for gardening, play and other means, or if you’re looking to create an area of the garden inaccessible to a domestic pet. Each of our gates offer practicality and style while serving as a security measure. The right gate paired with similar fencing from our range is an attractive feature that divides the area, increases privacy, and blends in with your garden’s overall design.

Decking Steps

Decking steps are great paired with a handrail or bannister installation, and are one of the best ways to transition between an elevated decking platform and the stable ground level of your garden. Similar to gates and balustrades, different decking accessories can enhance the overall appearance of your space. We’ll use steps to safely and effectively section off the elevated areas of your garden. If, in the absence of protective balustrades, there is a drop between one section of your decking and the ground, we usually advise the installation of stairs as a safety necessity.

Integrated Garden Rooms

Garden offices are complete spaces in themselves, and they provide a great solution for a variety of people. A garden office offers a handy and close-by workspace, ideal for professionals on the go who want to avoid the costs of renting commercial space or business owners who want to escape the chaos of a cluttered home office. These handy rooms can even be adapted to your exact needs, so if you want to set up a handy home gym area in your garden for example, or even have a growing family and need a playhouse away from the home, this could definitely tick a box.

Balustrades

Regardless of the reason behind your choice, a Fitrite balustrade installation will improve and accentuate any deck. Whether you want sleek glass clamps with contemporary pickets or traditional 3 inch row designs with square natural oak pickets, we can install your balustrade with ease. These protective measures aren’t only there for their sleek appearance – balustrades are a legal requirement if decking reaches a certain height on commercial premises, and are definitely advised if you have young children around the house, or curious pets sniffing around the newly installed decking.

Built-In Hot Tubs

Hot tubs are by no means an essential, but can act as the ideal accessory to your decking if you’re looking to impress. We supply and install hot tubs around The United Kingdom, with plenty of designs and varieties to choose from, each able to accommodate a number of people at any one time. A spa installation in your garden not only instantly becomes an eye-catching centrepiece, but has many physical and mental benefits, too. The addition of a hot tub lazy spa to garden decking can add value to your home, make you use and enjoy your garden more, and encourage more family time together!
