Composite Decking Is The Perfect Option For Outdoor Garden Flooring

 

A Composite Deck That Resists The Elements

DAYI is designed to handle all kinds of conditions. Snow and ice, wind and rain, and composite decking are resilient and hard-wearing. DAYI composite decking is engineered to last by fusing recycled plastic and wood fibers together to form a weather-resistant barrier to protect against moisture and frostbite. Resistant to warping, cracking, splintering, and rotting, DAYI offers a long-life, low-maintenance garden decking that guarantees peace of mind.

 

Gives The Feeling Of Indoor Flooring

DAYI composite decking boards are engineered to be smooth, but hard-wearing. Garden composite deck boards have no risk of splintering meaning tiny, delicate feet can pitter-patter in and out of the bi-fold doors onto the decking without any fear of damage. DAYI bridges the divide to outdoor living, providing a seamless transition from an open plan kitchen to a barbecue deck, secret alfresco hideaway, or secluded sun trap.

 

The Easy Clean & Low-Maintenance Option

Composite decking is very easy to maintain, unlike timber. Untreated timber absorbs stains. Algae build-up requires jet washing and can damage the boards. Clean with household soap at the beginning of the season and then sweep, when required. Composite decking resists stains so there's no getting on your hands and knees and scrubbing away when Great Aunt Maude gets a little carried away with the Beaujolais.

 

Composite Decking Is The Safest Alternative

We believe composite decking is the very safest option for you and your family: timber can splinter and warp. Slabs can crack and sink over time. With concrete, drainage can be an issue, leading to slippery surfaces. Artificial grass – temperatures can soar, which is not so safe for young ones. Composite decking never splinters is robust, maintains safe temperatures, and has good drainage.

Composite Decking For Residential Applications

The multiple ways in which you can use and apply composite decking to your outdoor space are many and various. Whether your deck flows effortlessly from your bi-fold doors or solves an eternally mossy patch at the bottom of the garden, composite decking gives you options. Whether it captures a golden corner that glows in the late evening sun or just gives you somewhere safe for the kids to play while you cook dinner, composite decking is stunningly versatile.

In addition, we have found that composite decking perfectly lends itself to specific applications in residential settings:

 

Hot Tub & Swimming Pool Decking

Building a surround for your hot tub is a great way to protect it from passing claws and to create convenient steps for access.

Composite decking is available grooved for extra grip in areas that are likely to get wet, aiding drainage. DAYI is designed to get wet, and coated in plastic polymer, the wood fibers resist moisture absorption.

Given the weight-bearing duties of carrying a hot tub, we would recommend using the solid composite deck boards, Classic or Deluxe. The Deluxe has the added advantage of being capped to seal out all water absorption, increasing the longevity of your boards.

Garden Room Composite Decking

Creating a seating area in your garden is easier than ever with composite decking. Choose your spot, install the deck, and then arrange your furniture to form a defined seating area. Soft furnishings can frame the space for you, furniture, rugs, and cushions that complement your chosen theme.

The kids have flown the nest, the bikes have rusted up and the shed's seen better days. Why not build a permanent garden room? It's the perfect spot for crafting, DIY, afternoon tea, or working from home.

Garden rooms don't come cheap, so you need a solid base, one that provides ample support with good drainage. Composite decking is an ideal solution and doubles up as a veranda for your summer house or garden room.

Pergola Composite Decking

Another way of framing your deck and really making a statement with your garden design is to incorporate a pergola. Adding structure to your deck gives it height, and presence. It turns your decking from a flat platform into a focal point, drawing the eye and giving your garden purpose and personality.

A pergola creates an outdoor room, it is amazing how a few columns and beams can reduce the effects of a cool breeze or provide just a little sought-out shade in the height of summer. Screening is a good way to further section off your pergola, creating a cozy space. Centered around a fire pit or patio heater a pergola can be a lovely warm spot from which to gaze at the stars.

 

Decking For An Alfresco Dining Spot

On warmer, 'salad days' when you want to wring every drop of sunshine out of the day, having a dedicated outdoor dining area makes for a lovely alternative to a TV dinner. Composite decking creates a warm, easy-to-maintain location for your alfresco dining.

When those summer days do arrive, they can be sporadic. Don't t waste spend precious hours sanding, painting, and varnishing. Buy composite decking and enjoy the sunshine, however, brief its appearance.

Whether outside your door or in the sun trap at the very bottom of the garden, a beautiful aesthetic can be created with little care. Experiment with lighting, bistro furniture, or tall stools to create a personal space to unwind in your bijou dining haven.

Choose DAYI's composite decking for your balcony or terrace.

A balcony is a unique architectural feature that gives you a unique viewpoint. Many famous historical events have occurred on balconies, the Pope delivering his sermons and Wills and Kate greeting the public as husband and wife. In literature also, the balcony is significant, such as in the story of Romeo and Juliet.

Unique as a space to spend time watching the world go by, an outdoor balcony is uniquely exposed to the elements and is prone to damage, as a result, timber balconies can become unsafe due to rot and erosion. Composite decking is the perfect solution for a good-looking, easy-maintenance deck for your balcony.

When choosing a material for your balcony you should look to find the most robust, cost-effective option with minimal maintenance. Balcony composite decking from DAYI gives you a real workable alternative to timber which makes good financial sense. Balcony composite decking is water-resistant, never requires painting, stripping, or varnishing, and is supplied with a 25-year residential warranty. Providing a non-slip, stain-resistant material, DAYI composite decking is the safer, more durable alternative for your balcony.

Composite Decking Is The Perfect Flooring Solution For Your Balcony

A Product That Performs In All Conditions

A balcony is exposed to the elements in all weathers, and simply because of their design, they are naturally harder to maintain. This means that timber can rot, and joists can become damaged easily.

Composite decking, when supplied with plastic lumber joists (which have no wood composition) is therefore completely impervious to moisture absorption. This subframe, the pedestals, and the composite deck boards all work together to aid drainage and prevent standing water.

Balcony Composite Decking Is Easy To Maintain

As a landlord, by far the greater proportion of your outgoing cost comes from ongoing maintenance, rather than the initial setup. You can minimize your costs by choosing balcony composite decking for your low-rise apartments.

Because of the composition of our deck boards, they resist water. This means that they never require stripping, sanding, painting, or varnishing and need simply to receive a good scrub every now and again to keep them looking nice and shiny.

Composite Decking Is The Safest Option For Balcony Flooring

Safety is always a primary concern for contractors and landlords alike. Timber balconies may be cheap to install, but lawsuits are rarely cheap. Timber is liable to water erosion, warping, splintering, and can even break. Composite decking, built upon a plastic subframe is strong, robust, and resistant to the elements and is supplied in a grooved non-slip finish to increase grip and prevent accidents.

The quality assurance, safety, and reliability of an outdoor flooring product are crucial components of any balcony or roof terrace decking installation.

Fire-Rated To Ensure For Application On Low-Rise Developments

The Grenfell Fire and other major events have highlighted the importance of choosing the right building materials. For this reason, we only ever sell balcony composite decking where low-rise developments are specified. This is because our composite is "Cfl-S1" (EN 13501-1) fire-rated, ultimately meaning it is not suitable for high-rise developments.

Check the specifications for your project, most low-rise plans will allow for "Class C" fire-rated composite materials to be used. Doing so reduces weight and maintenance costs and increases safety and security.

Choose DAYI commercial composite decking as your all-weather outdoor flooring solution.

When choosing a material for outdoor flooring, commercial businesses such as restaurants, pubs, cafes, and offices will look to find the most robust, cost-effective option with minimal maintenance. Many companies may have already tried and abandoned timber decking as an option because of the amount of maintenance and upkeep costs that accompany timber.

Composite decking from DAYI gives you a real workable alternative to timber which makes good business sense. Commercial composite decking is water-resistant, being 30% recycled plastic so is kinder to the environment whilst resisting its effects. Ten percent is bonding material, the other 60% is comprised of recycled industrial wood fiber which gives our composite deck boards the look and feel of wood, without the downsides.

Composite decking never requires painting, stripping, or varnishing and is supplied with a 10-year commercial warranty. Providing a non-slip, stain-resistant material, DAYI® composite decking is the safer, more durable alternative for your commercial space.

Commercial Composite Decking Is The Perfect Option For Outdoor Flooring

 

Composite Decking Resists The Elements

Engineered to handle the very worst that the British weather can bring, DAYI products are robust. Our composite decking is comprised of plastic and wood fibres which form an impermeable barrier. Timber decks suffer from algae build-up during colder, wetter months. Salt provides some protection against ice build-up but can cause erosion to timber. Composite decking does not erode, algae may still grow but will only need to be cleaned off the surface.

 

Bring The Indoors Outside

DAYI composite decking boards are engineered to be smooth but hard-wearing. Acting as a seamless link between indoor and outdoor spaces, DAYI commercial composite decking brings the indoors outside and so is perfect for cafes, restaurant balconies, smoking areas, and dining areas alike. Composite decking even takes the headache out of installing swimming pool surrounds giving a safe, child-friendly alternative.

 

Easy Clean Decking

Composite decking is easy to maintain, requiring soap and water to keep it in tip-top condition. Simply scrub to cleanse and sweep to keep dust-free. Composite decking resists stains, it is much easier to keep clean. The plastic elements are composite arming it against tough stains like mud and wine.

 

The Safest Alternative

As a business, there are many flooring options you can choose from. Each material has its own pros and cons. Given the options, we believe that DAYI decking provides you with the safest, most cost-efficient, and most practical option. Whilst many other alternatives exist, only composite decking can offer you a 10-warranty and longevity.

Composite Decking For Commercial Applications

There are many ways in which you can use and apply commercial composite decking to your outdoor space. Whether your deck flows effortlessly from your pub restaurant or solves a totting timber issue on your balcony, commercial composite decking gives you options. Expand your seating area, negotiate uneven ground, or just replace your broken patio with DAYI commercial composite decking.

As an established designer, manufacturer, and supplier, we have found that commercial composite decking lends itself perfectly to many specific commercial applications including decking for public spaces, office decking, and decking for restaurants.

 

Restaurant Composite Decking

Commercial dining areas receive heavy use. As such, you need to install a hard-wearing material that is weather-resistant. Composite decking dining areas offer you the beauty of a timber deck without the hassle of constant maintenance.

Offering better grip than a stone or timber alternative, decking for restaurants is supplied in a grooved or woodgrain finish allowing you to add extra grip on steps, edges, and areas that receive high footfall.

Composite decking is designed to expand and contract with the heat, like timber. Given this, restaurant installers should consider installing a membrane to prevent foodstuffs from falling between the gaps to discourage vermin.

Boasting stain-resistant qualities, composite decking is easy to clean and maintain, making it the ideal material for your restaurant.

 

 

Office Composite Decking

When building a base for an outside seating area, smoking shelter or shed, it is crucial that you use a material that rarely needs maintenance or replacing, as, once your structure is erected, proper maintenance of the boards beneath becomes extremely difficult.

DAYI's composite decking provides an ideal robust solution for office decking, giving a strong base that requires little to no maintenance. Our solid-core Classic and Deluxe composite deck boards are strong and built to withstand regular foot traffic and heavy loads.

Designed to flex with the changing seasons, DAYI® decking expands and contracts accordingly and should therefore be installed in keeping with manufacturer guidelines to prevent warping and cracking.

 

 

Composite Decking For Public Spaces

Whether used indoors or externally, decking in public spaces is likely to receive a high level of foot traffic. Composite decking expands and contracts with the heat and so is not liable to warping, or cracking, unlike timber, and never requires sanding or painting.

The decking surrounding a water feature is likely to be exposed to prolonged periods of wetness. Timber can warp over time and is also prone to splintering. Composite decking has a low degree of water absorption due to its material properties and so is ideal for pools and splash pad surrounds.

Composite decking as a surround for your swimming pool provides an elegant alternative to tiles and is reversible. This means it is available in a woodgrain or grooved (slip-resistant) finish.

 

Commercial Composite Decking – Related Case Studies

Whenever we are approached regarding commercial decking, we always look to fully understand the exact application of the deck to best advise as to the most suitable product for your commercial needs. A hollow board for ease of installation and low budgets, a solid board for heavy traffic, or a capped board for increased water-resistant properties. Our case studies feature images, an investigation into specific commercial briefs, and our proposals to fulfill the client's requirements.
