I replaced some old decking boards with this and they were great. 90% were good, a few with some nasty knots, but I suppose expected from a natural product. I over order so I could pick and choose a little. No issues laying, all fine. The boards are of a good quality, think and heavy.

Utter rubbish
Every piece is split or full of knots. I chose this thickness to make strong steps but now I fear one will break.

Just what I was looking for and would buy again.
Using to replace damaged decking now 14 years old. This was the nearest I could get to the existing boards. Great condition with a few knots but they match what is already there.

Disappointed.
Finally got round to completing our decking area after loosing time with the framework. The decking boards were mostly of poor quality, warped, involving pushing and pulling boards then screwing under pressure. Many have quite severe knots in them some of which have fallen out leaving holes in the deck. Finally a number of boards , around 7 or 8 on our order, appear to have been stored for quite some time and appeared aged and were a different colour to the others. Had to use them to complete the stepped area. Pics included show some of the issues, the boards have all been treated with clear decking oil.

Dreadful Quality!!
I had these delivered but when I got round to laying out I found that at least 50% of the boards to be badly warped or damaged..no choice but to lay them and force them straight but others it was impossible. I need to order more as the thickness is unavailable elsewhere but will visit the store next time to pick my own.
Merchant Response Dear Shaun, Many thanks for getting in touch and I am very sorry to hear the product you purchased was not up to our usual high standard. I have passed on your review to our product team to investigate the quality of this product. Kind regards, Travis Perkins Team.

Dreadful
i ordered just under £1000 worth of this wood to build a large decked area, was meant to wait 2 weeks for delivery, they then called and told me someones off work and told me i had to wait an extra day which was fine, then called a few days later with a different story and asked me to wait an extra 5 days.
After waiting nearly 3 weeks, over 40 pieces of the 54 are severely warped and others are damaged, split or have huge knots in which are falling out.
We decided after waiting that long for delivery and much planning and having people round to help we would just try our best with them, almost every board when laid next to the one we just screwed down was touching the next board at both ends and had an inch gap in the middle, unbelievable.
We had to constantly screw blocks of wood to our frame joists and use a flat bar prized against the block of wood to try to bend the boards over in the middle then screw them down quickly, then move the block of wood over and repeat.
Many pieces of wood were far too warped for this to work so we have all different sized gaps and ends touching in places.
Extremely unhappy, all of it must of been stored incorrectly.
Will never buy from travis perkins again
Merchant Response Dear Mark, I am very sorry to hear that you had to wait nearly three weeks for a delivery and the product was not up to standard. I will pass your comments on to our product team to investigate the quality of the product further. If you could give me the address of the branch you ordered from I can pass you details on to them so they discus further, if you wish. Kind regards, Travis Perkins Team.

Good quality timber decking
I bought around 50 lengths, a mixture of 3 and 4.8m, all regular and no damaged boards. It's replacing exactly the same decking that has lasted 10 years under trees.
