In the UK, you generally don't need planning permission for raised decking if it meets certain criteria. However, you may need planning permission if your property is in a conservation area, listed building, or if the decking is too large or too high. We recommend you talk to your local council to be absolutely sure.
This is a question we get asked the most, as our UK climate isn’t too well suited for decking so incorrectly installed decking can be very dangerous. We recommend you be careful when enjoying your decking, particularly after it has rained. Also, please see our 'Ribs Up or Down?' question.
This is a hot topic for debate for decking installers all over the world, but we think we know the best way - 'Ribs Down, Smooth Side Up'. The purpose of the ribs on a decking board is to provide air flow where the board is in contact with the subframe, which in turns reduces the ability for the timber to have a large surface area on which to harbour moisture which in turn rots the timbers quicker. “But, Paul my supplier has decking with ribs both sides!” Yes, this is true, there are many decking boards with ribs both sides, personally we avoid these, as again with the ribs up the water sits in the ribs and causes the decking to rot quicker. and It is also a great breeding ground for algae, which is one of the main reasons that decks get so slippery!
