Wood Decking And Gazebos

Wood can be the best choice for outdoor deck surfacing, while gazebos and trellis work provide accent and invite vine growth. Care needs to be taken when choosing wood for an outdoor surface in the Vancouver climate. Consistent exposure to rain and sunshine across the entirety of deck surfaces needs to be considered, as does stains and sealants to maintain colour and ward off ingress of bio-matter into the deck surface. Softwoods like cedar and pressure treated fir can be used while IPE, if installed and treated correctly can be enjoyed for a lifetime.
