Lifestyle - Summer Decking and Barbecues

Whenever i think of Summer, i think about chilling in the garden after a long day at work with my feet up, enjoying some tasty food! It is such an awesome feeling so i've been getting inspired on how to make the garden look better, and how i can spend more time out there making the most of the longer evenings. Arbordeck are one of the leading manufacturers of plush garden decking, i've been checking out their site and garden transformations and it looks amazing! There are so many options available so it's important to choose the right type of decking to ensure you're getting the best value for money and something that is going to last. 

Arbordeck provides you with decking products manufactured from slow-grown timber to provide arguably the most dimensionally stable, long-lasting softwood decking on the market. They are also the exclusive UK distributor of TrexTranscend, the composite decking revolution. For the premium-grade products, Arbordeck only use timber from northern latitudes. This is because the trees in these regions grow slowly, which means the wood fibres are packed closely together. After manufacture, this close-packed structure gives decking its strength. What’s more, when the timber absorbs rainwater, it expands less than many other timbers. As a result, there is reduced movement, which in turn reduces the strain against the fixings and minimises the risk of boards twisting, warping or splitting. Arbordeck also work closely with PEFC and FSC®, the global benchmark for responsible forest management, so you can rest assured that all of their timber comes from sustainably managed forests - plus Arbordeck now offers the leading Trex composite decking and railing system, Trex is manufactured from 95 per cent recycled materials, such as wood and plastic waste. I'm eyeing up their blog and inspiration pages and fancy myself some plush neutral coloured decking and a hot tub!

As soon as there's a flash of sun, most Brits run to Tesco to get the barbecue treats in so they can really enjoy the short British summer! Find your ideal BBQ in the large selection of gas and charcoal barbecues at Chessington Garden Centre and their online shop for all things barbecue related. Make the most of the warm weather and be the best host with their range of BBQs and accessories. From well-known brands such as Char-Broil, Dancook, Garland, Landmann and  Weber, there's a barbecue for everyone with any level or lack of skill! I've been browsing and discovered these BBQ Pizza Boxes, you pop your pizza into the specially designed box and place the whole thing on the barbecue, it then cooks you up an amazing, authentic, stone baked pizza in minutes! Chessington Garden Centre also have lots of garden living bits to enhance your garden space, i love the cosy and comfy outdoor furniture, gimme!
