Many lighting options are now solar powered which makes them easier to install. Another great option is to recess the lights into the decking making for a seamless, stylish finish.
Split level decking area
A split-level composite deck allows you to make maximum use of your garden without taking up too much space.
You can use split-level decking to define areas of your garden. For instance you can have a dining area and then a seating area for nighttime relaxing.
Adding steps down onto another deck level makes your garden feel more spacious and defines areas easier.

Just wanted to say thank you for the composite edging trims. I ordered the wrong colour which you delivered in two hours to Sheffield, but brought them back yesterday and swapped with no issues.

Many thanks
