Composite decking boards offer a low-maintenance, high-quality solution for your outdoor spaces. Thanks to their use of recycled materials, they’re often an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional timber, without the need for sanding, sealing, varnishing, or painting.

These composite decking ideas highlight just how versatile these boards can be. From full decking areas to stairways, built-in seating, planters and more, there are plenty of impressive and creative ways to incorporate composite into your outdoor design.
