Each 2.9 m board is 140 mm wide and 22 mm thick, carries a 3D embossed woodgrain on both faces and is stocked at our yard in Didcot, Oxfordshire. £60.00 per m² inc.

Works well with Cotswold stone, light patio slabs, and coastal or Scandinavian-style houses. A good choice for compact courtyard gardens. Designing with Beige and DriftwoodA typical layout: Beige face up across the field to bounce light into a small or shaded garden, with the textured Driftwood face as a border or as a single board across the deck to mark a change between dining and seating areas. Boards laid along the longest line of sight make a narrow courtyard look longer.Every Oxford Heritage 3D™ board is capped: a polymer cap co-extruded around a six-chamber core, so the deck needs no sanding, staining, oiling or sealing. A little colour settling in the first months is normal for all composite decking.How much decking do I need?Start from the area in square metres. Every m² needs 7.25 linear metres of board — 2.5 boards of 2.9 m. This figure includes a small cutting allowance for a straight deck; for picture-frame borders or diagonal layouts add a further 10%.
