Applications
WPC decking for landed gardens and patios
Ground-level composite decks for outdoor dining, garden edges and planter surrounds — built to shed monsoon water.
Is WPC decking suitable for a landed garden or patio?
It depends on ground clearance and how you use the space. Capped WPC usually beats timber for outdoor dining decks that you do not want to oil after every monsoon. Real Chengal or Balau still wins if you want authentic hardwood character and will maintain it. Keep boards on a drained subframe — not buried in soil — and leave airflow underneath. As of October 2026, garden decks often land in the mid S$18–32/sqft installed band, with a S$1,000 minimum job.
Ground-level realities
Landed gardens fight damp soil, leaf litter and curious pets. Elevate joists, keep airflow under the deck and design for cleaning access. Termite-aware detailing still matters for any timber in the subframe even when the walking surface is WPC.
Patios and dining zones
Plan furniture loads, barbecue clearances and traffic paths from kitchen doors. Mid-tone capped boards hide food oil better than ultra-light caps while staying cooler than near-black colours.
Planter surrounds
WPC often finishes the edge of built planters. Keep irrigation overspray from ponding on board ends and seal cut ends per manufacturer guidance.
