[Closed] Plastic decking.

price,it's bloody expensive.

my mate has it down though and it's brilliant,if money isn't a problem then go for it

I looked into it on the deck build I've just done. It's approx 3 times the price of wood deck so I canned the idea. OK it's fit and forget but I like the look of wood and when oiled up it looks great.

Any idea of a per sq metre cost?

I build factories for one of the big suppliers.

Want me to find out some prices?

I don't but I know it depends on what you buy as in grade, colour & non slip etc.

I looked into it about a year ago, you struggle to find prices online so I had to go into a local plastics place. All I know it was 3 times the cost of wood and you get a 10 year guarantee.

One of the best things about it is you can buy in your desired lengths so you dont get the wastage like you would with wood.

I have to say I am a fan. Came across it at my Aunties holiday home and was amazed by how grippy it was. If it's 3x the price I would say it's worth it, especially for steps.

Would be handy for building boardwalks on trails too 🙂

Wrightyson ,that would be excellent.

saw some for the first time at a National Trust property yesterday. When the decking needs replacing, it will be with plastic. Excellent stuff.

Is it made from recycled plastic ? If not think of all the oil to make it no wonder it costs 3 times as much...and just think how uneco friendly it is....trees grown to be cut

I'll probably be up there later today so ill have a word with the sales manager.

As a rough guide £45 sq/m
Obviously loads of extras such as balustrades etc.
I can get it direct but would probably struggle to liaise between yourself and the manufacturer.
He's suggested that most the suppliers/outlets ate on the coast as its geared up for caravans. Hth
