Why Choose a Wood Deck in Lough Gowna

Wood decking fits right in with the natural setting around Lough Gowna. It blends with the trees and the water, giving you an outdoor space that feels like part of the landscape. We build with pressure-treated pine or larch, both tough enough for our climate. If you also need patio construction in Lough Gowna, we can tie the deck and patio together for a look. For folks in the next town, we recently finished a wood decking construction in Mountnugent that used similar materials. The feedback? They loved how it weathered the winter. We can do the same for you.

Our Decking Process from Start to Finish

We keep it simple. First we come out to your place, look at the ground, and talk about what you want. We check drainage, sunlight, and access. Then we give you a fixed price, broken down per square metre. No surprises. After you say yes, we handle everything.

• Digging footings and laying a solid base to stop movement
• Building a treated timber frame with galvanised brackets
• Installing decking boards with hidden fixings for a clean look
• Applying a protective oil to fight Irish rain and UV

We work in all seasons, but spring and autumn are best. If the ground is frozen or flooded, we wait. Quality first.

Common questions about wood decking construction in Lough Gowna

How long does it take to build a deck?

Most jobs take one to two weeks, depending on size and weather. A small deck can be done in a few days. We’ll give you a timeline when we quote.

Do I need planning permission for a deck?

Normally no, if the deck is less than one metre above ground and not covering more than half your garden. We’ll check for you before we start.

What type of wood do you recommend?

Pressure-treated pine is our go-to for cost and durability. For a softer look, larch lasts well. We can also do tropical hardwood if you want premium.

How do I maintain my deck?

Clean it once a year with a mild soap and water. Reapply oil every two to three years to stop it from greying. We can do that for you too.
