BALAU TIMBER DECKING
Balau Decking – Enduring Aesthetic Appeal For Your Home
Imagine stepping out into your garden and being greeted by a breathtaking deck that balances aesthetic appeal with simple long-term durability. With our Balau decking, you can achieve just that. Known for its natural resistance to decay and insects, Balau wood offers a blend of strength and beauty that is perfect for the UK’s variable climate.
What is Balau Wood?
Balau wood is a type of tropical hardwood known for its exceptional strength, density, and natural beauty. Originating from Southeast Asia, it is prized for its durability and resistance to the elements, making it a popular choice for outdoor applications such as decking.
Balau wood ranges in colour from light yellowish-brown to dark reddish-brown, and these natural variations can create a visually stunning and unique look when used in decking. The wood also has a fine, interlocked grain, which not only adds to its aesthetic appeal but also contributes to its robustness and stability.
What Can Balau Wood Bring to Your Outdoor Space?
Durability in Damp Weather Conditions
One of the standout features of Balau wood is its natural resistance to decay and insect attacks. This makes it particularly well-suited to the UK’s damp and variable climate, where other woods might struggle. Its high density and hardness mean that Balau decking can withstand heavy use and the harshest weather conditions without deteriorating. This natural resilience ensures that your decking will remain in excellent condition for years, reducing the need for frequent replacements or repairs.
A Distinctive, Aesthetically Pleasing Appeal
Balau wood offers a distinctive aesthetic with its rich, natural tones that vary from light to dark brown. When these shades are combined during installation, they create a visually striking and sophisticated look. Whether you’re aiming for a modern or rustic style, Balau decking enhances the beauty of any garden setting, providing a warm and inviting space for relaxation and entertainment.
Easy, Hassle-Free Maintenance
As a wood, Balau is already well-known for its durability and density, which means it requires minimal upkeep compared to other woods. These natural properties help it withstand the elements without the need for too frequent treatments of staining or sealing. This makes Balau decking a practical choice for those who want a beautiful garden feature without the hassle of extensive maintenance.
A Sustainably Sourced Feature
In today’s environmentally conscious world, many homeowners prioritise sustainability when selecting materials for their homes. Balau deck boards, when sourced responsibly, offer an eco-friendly option. Their durability means fewer replacements over time, saving you money and reducing waste.
Customisable for Installation Flexibility
Our Balau Decking can be customised to meet your specific needs. Options like edge grooving for hidden fastenings provide a seamless and modern decking surface. This flexibility in installation caters to various design preferences and technical requirements, allowing you to create a bespoke outdoor space that reflects your style.
