  1. Advantages & Disadvantages of Natural Wood Decking Materials for Your Home Having luxurious wood decking is the ideal way to bridge the gap between the house and the outdoors. Wood decking Dubai is becoming a very sought-after option and also getting more trendier by the day. Homeowners are trying to involve a deck in their outdoor kitchen, living room, fire pit, pool surround, or a private retreat. People are looking for more options with respect to the material used, as well as the price range for their outdoor spaces. Building a deck will require you to consider several factors like the decking material to be used, the cost, durability, availability, and the appeal that the material will create. There are many alternatives when it comes to the materials to be used for the decking like natural materials such as treated softwood, or manmade materials that mimic natural wood or exotic hardwood.

It includes wood such as spruce, pine or fir, and usually has a light green color. It can sometimes contain small puncture marks.

It is very cost-effective, and also easy to work with because of its soft nature, which makes it easy to screw it down and easier to cut. The drawback of treated softwood is that it is going to age to a silver-grey color unless you apply a finish regularly. In addition to this, it is prone to shrinking, twisting, and warping and can develop cracks and splinters in places where screws are affixed.

One of the disadvantages of cedar is that it is prone to weathering. Being very soft, it scratches and dents very easily.
