Timbertech decking, packed with benefits right from installation

This Canterbury home has some fantastic design features including a TimberTech Terrain deck on every sun-catching side.

Measuring in at 400m², this magnificent home is located in Ashburton’s new Turton Green subdivision and provides outdoor living at its best with a mighty 110m² of decking in the popular Silver Maple colour. 

With a strong entertaining and family focus, the homeowners made an excellent decking choice with Terrain’s polymer-capped finish. TimberTech decking is not only splinter free, but scratch and stain resistant too, and because there’s no need to stain and it, there’s bound to be more free time to actually enjoy using it!

Builders love installing TimberTech composite decking…For starters, boards are manufactured straight and defect-free with a hardy, splinter-free surface that makes matching them up a breeze. There are no specialised tools required for cutting TimberTech boards and every board has a directional notch running down the side so the finished deck surface has a consistent texture. Niagara supplies a Deckmate measuring tool so that each boards is laid the perfect distance apart.By saving installation time, homeowners can save money. Handling time can be further decreased with Terrain’s longer-length six metre boards (available in Silver Maple and Brown Oak colours.) Long lengths mean fewer joins for a great surface finish, which is further enhanced with the use of TimberTech’s hidden fastening method. No screws are visible (or can catch dirt) when TimberTech’s hidden fasteners are slotted into the side grooves on each board and screwed directly to the joists – out of sight below the deck’s surface.

These Ashburton homeowners made two more smart choices: To complete the deck areas using TimberTech’s matching fascia (available in two heights in all four colours of the Terrain range), and to inset stylish lighting which added a warm ambience to their design.
