Question 1

What is Millboard decking and why is it the best choice for Cumbria?

Accepted Answer

Millboard is a premium resin mineral composite decking specifically designed for the British weather. Unlike traditional timber or standard composite decking, Millboard offers exceptional durability, anti-slip properties, and requires minimal maintenance. As Millboard Approved Installers in Carlisle, Andy Ross Timber specialises in professional installation of this luxury decking material throughout Cumbria and North West England.

Is composite decking low maintenance compared to timber decking?

Accepted Answer

Yes, composite decking such as Millboard is significantly lower maintenance than traditional timber decking. It doesn't require annual staining, oiling, or sealing. The non-porous surface resists mould, algae, and weathering, making it ideal for Cumbria's damp climate. Simply clean with soap and water to maintain its premium appearance for decades.
