What is trending when it comes to decks in Hawke's Bay, Hastings, and Napier?

Properties with large outdoor areas are common across much of Hawkes Bay's Far regions, including Napier and the Hastings.

Outdoor living can be enjoyed all year round in this region’s warm, subtropical climate. And, with the increasing trend towards remote working, more homeowners are looking for low-cost and hassle-free ways to expand their property’s outdoor space.

Decking attached to your home provides a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. Alternatively, a deck can be built further away from the property to add an additional area for dining, relaxing, working, or a mix of all three. 

Softwoods such as Radiata pine and Macrocarpa are popular choices for decking and create an elegant and stylish ambience. Of the more durable hardwoods, Kwila and Vitex are favoured because of their attractive colours and rich grains. 

Many homeowners are prioritising environmental concerns when searching for their decking material. This provides them with peace of mind that the trees used have been grown and harvested sustainably.
